On Oct 4, National Development Minister Desmond Lee told Parliament that the Housing and Development Board (HDB) will incur a loss of about S$270 million for a housing project in Ang Mo Kio Former GIC economist Yeoh Lam Keong then took to Facebook accusing the minister's statement as "disingenuous" and an "accounting sleight of hand" He claimed that this was merely the opportunity cost of reselling the land, not its true cost The Ministry of National Development said that HDB must pay the fair market value of land back to the national reserves when it takes land for building homes.
I would say that 30% of the Singaporeans couldn't care less. 10 say that DL is correct.????? 60% agree with the writer and TOC????? (QUESTION MARK) I am not a fan of TOC in any way. As for myself. it should be up to the people to interpret and not only their version. People are educated and they know what they read. A big thank you to economist Yeo Lam Keong for standing together with the people. POFMA should never take sides with this article. No two ways about it. People damn tulan about housing nowadays. If they use the sledgehammer to deny that this article could be true. I am just glad that there is no such thing as riots here!!
