For your information. I have been in contruction Industry for 18 years.[/b]

Do you know that Bedok was an area with 4 hills and Marine parade was reclaimed land?

Do you know what else Atobe pointed out? Here you go:

Apparently you didn't even bother to read on.

Your selective amnesia is thereby noted. Rolling Eyes

How cheap is cheap? How much difference did it make? More than leveling 4 hills and reclaiming the sea?

robertteh SG

What is so difficult to excavate the soil or leveling the ground ? What talents do we have to carry out land reclaiming ? To me it is a matter of simple commonsense issuing a tender inviting contractors to carry out the works planned on standard contract documents and engineering designs that our scholars do not even have to bother to design or originate.

The scholars don't even bother and let some Nishimatsus or Toa Habours do all the necessary ground works and at the end did not try to claim they are the ones who excavate and tunnel and reclaim the lands. I don't see the scholars have the talents to realise some marine clay without the relevant cofferdam will cause the surrounding to subside and eventually the whole highway to collapse.

This is how Singapore is run - claim credit for works done by agents and others but not the scholars who could not solve simple problems. No wonder when other Asian tigers are recovering we are still deep in recessions. When finally recessions are over scholars quicky claim and reclaim credits.

So don't bother to try to kid anyone or to impress Chiam See Tong to build HDB flats when it is on record that our scholars cannot handle simple safety measures not even after all the recommendations in the Hotel New World collapse inquiry when ministers solemnly told packed house of parliament that everything will be done to prevent another collapse.

So all the salmanisation will not impress anyone that we have all the leadership talents in our scholars who are beyond emulation and one class above anyone.

Salman SG

How can the cost of reclaimation be less than the cost of finance?

You see how Robert Teh bigots once those anti govt lies are exposed?

robertteh SG

Read again the posts e.g. "Chronology of government fee increases and effects on jobs" on how the HDB had changed flat pricing formula by charging full market prices for HDB flats to make huge profits through creative accounting when lands were acquired at dirt cheap compensation and its costs of acquisitions were paid for by the taxpayers' monies.

Do not salmanise by avoiding this answers in these posts which should have sufficiently dealt with your claim that Chiam See Tong could not take up the challenge to build the HDB flats. If Chiam can acquire lands at such dirt cheap prices and yet charge full market price he too can build the flats and give a bit of discount and make huge profits.

Hmm?

Helping Children and apply grants for them Big F***?

I give donations and help the buskers in their income and those blind to cross the street. So i can put my nose in the air and tell the rest of Singpore to stop whining?

Once again...Big Fark?

Nelstar SG

Emcee to the power of 2, Salman likes to trumpet things he had done but then, there's no prove to his nonsense.

He's a bag of air, nothing much inside.

Yo Starry,

Hot air many many nia....see already also Buey Ke Yan.

Cheers

snow leopard SG

win? since when did he ever win? : )

Salman SG

Chiam wasn't paying for land price higher than any other HDB projects.
And what I have done is to poke one big hole in your claims.
And you have zero defence for it.

cheers

Thank you PAP for telling me to go out of my comfort zone.

Please re-read and understand my previous post and do not again salmanise the "land cost" part in all my posts and my previous post. How did HDB charge the land costs?

Is not HDB charging flat prices at full market prices and then give a bit of discount to make it look like giving a subsidy.

In doing so, and forgetting to mention to parliament in reply to Chiam See Tong is not HDB practising creative accounting forgeting to mention that HDB had originally acquired lands at dirt cheap compensation and even paid for them with taxpayers' monies.

Had not HDB after acquiring the dirt cheap lands using power of state and transfered the acquired lands to state land office and let the state land office make the windfall profits and pretended to buy the lands at full market prices so that by giving a bit of discount it could say based on creatively given discount it is indeed subsidising flat prices or making a loss. (In any case no one knows given this creative part of the account as it is not shown to public)

If Chiam See Tong picks up the land at such creatively transacted market price, (as assigned to projects) then how do you expect him to compete with HDB who already made one ton of profit and passed such windfall over to state land.

Since you are so sure in all your salmanising denials of such creative profiteering by HDB, why don't you answer this question asked by all flat purchases of HDB in the first place.

It is not Chiam See Tong's fault for he is in the opposition who is not managing HDB. It is the duty of HDB to tell the truths and not hide the truths from the public. The flat purchasers I am sure are dying to know whether HDB has the right to charge them again after selling the flat the resale levies based on HDB claim to have given them subsidy based on market sale price e.g. $150,000 for a 3-rm flat or $200,000 for a 4-rm flat.

What is the point in continuing this discussion?

'Salmanisation' continues unabated; plenty of pointers have been raised to contradict the fantasy world Salman lives in, and yet as always, he skirts issues, ignores blatant problems presented, goes about his typical selective reading without bothering to ascertain background information, and continues in his crusade to claims of SUCCESS(?!) in 'poking' holes in the arguments, a delusional wave he continues to ride on.

Embarrassment is not known to those suffering from 'salmanisim', thick-skin mentality is their 2nd nature and taking credit for fictional argumentative 'victories' is their favourate past time.

charlize SG

I hope this doesn't degenerate into a "Salman you" or "Salman off!" Laughing

Salman SG

Huh? What? Only insults from you guys? Where's the subtance in your posts?
You fellas really degrade yourselves.

gerrykoh SG

Ya, I bought my 5-rm mais for slightly over $140K many years ago. Was able to pay in full after a few yrs. of working. Now all 5-rm are at least $300K (furthermore smaller even!).
Most couples now have to work till very old cos they are struggling to pay housing loan. Also unable to downgrade cos the mkt. is still depressed. In fact a lot of pple lose money if they sell now cos they pay too high price.

Mao x 2 SG

Are you talking about yourself? Wink

LazerLordz SG

Are your issues worth a serious debate? Considering that there has been no substance nor coherent argument or even a few taut points in your ramblings...

I think the smart ones conserve their brainpower for more pressing issues.They show some attempt at engaging your issues only for the sake of keeping the marketplace of ideas alive and kicking.
