2. Should there be a policy to control rentals?
3. Should the govt allow entry of foreign workers to meet the labor shortage?

Another "B Family' where only the wife is qualified to work and the husband is on dependent pass??

Instead of bringing in one whole family where the husband and wife are both allowed to work to diffuse workers shortage and overcrowding??; May 22, 2022 12:56 PM

The police usually acted effectively- the whole police force went through months digging Khan's accusation? The Worker's Party's 3 leaders outsmart the the police?; May 23, 2022 11:47 AM

Only the ministers are entitled to live in big spacious prime locations.

Citizens can on only choose one criterion. Small homes in central locations or bigger 5 rooms outside location. You cannot have both.; May 24, 2022 7:29 PM

SIMPLE ECONOMICS: When there are shortages prices will keep climbing, just like the present chickens' situation. An incompetent, blind and out of touch government who did not know which way things are going! This is the whole tooth and nothing but the truth!; May 25, 2022 10:40 AM

Ours was a shotgun marriage. We balloted for 3 room SBF as we were just embarking new in our

careers and also at that time only the 3 room in that area was availble between both our parents.

As of today, our situation was a little different. We have another baby on the way in addition

in the process of hiring live-in help. We have our 3room rented out and ourselves renting a

larger home. Both our incomes have also been doubled and for this reason, we have been

waiting anxiously for the new launches of 5room BTO. In addition, we have also been house

hunting for a resale 5room but was not willing to pay $800K for a 1976 run down HDB.

On the bright side, at the very least, we still have a roof.; May 25, 2022 7:28 PM

$500,000 for a 950 sq. ft 4 room HDB?
99 years?
5 years of waiting time?

Parents flat about 10 storeys high. Spacious and no land constraint.

Now new one not only small, average 3 times higher building still got land constraint.

When comes to saving businesses during Covid peoples money no constraint. But when comes to building homes for the people all kinds of constraints? Cant wait for them to toh to. People's Action Party has now become Peoples Arrogant Party.; May 30, 2022 7:41 AM
