Forum: Uncooperative HDB flat owners
"HDB seems to be accommodating an uncooperative owner, indirectly penalising a cooperative owner who's been working patiently w #HDB to resolve e issue.. #Recalcitrant flat #owners seem to be treated leniently, as reported in e media, over issues like #noisenuisance & excessive cluttering, sometimes for years. This soft #attitude reinforces the idea tt it pays to be wayward, & culprits can act with little repercussion"

Forum: HDB lease
"Fr time to time, concerns regarding #decayinglease of #HDB #flats surface in #Singapore. There needs to be a fundamental understanding tt when a property’s #lease expires, whether it's HDB or private #property, the land reverts to e state.. Prospective #buyers shld make #sounddecisions based on their age vis-a-vis the remaining lease on their property, & not expect any assistance when e value of their property drops w the decaying lease"

Stop banging your floors, please.

I know it's cold on your floors but I need the air-conditioning.
I wanted to chill.

It will be done after 4 hours. Just be patience.

CHUA BENG HUAT reflects on 🇸🇬’s public housing program and argues that the features that have made for its success have also generated tensions and contradictions which are not easily resolvable.

The abandoned buildings of Tanglin Halt (everyone got moved to Margaret Drive, these apartments, some of the oldest public housing projects we've got, will be torn down. These 10-12 floor buildings will be replaced with probably 50 storey apartments). I grew up around this neighbourhood

#STForum: Parents prefer not to burden children financially
#HDB "Lease Buyback Scheme has been enhanced to allow households flexibility to choose the length of #lease to be retained .. i.e., retained lease to last the youngest owner till at least 95 yrs old .. Parents wld prefer to be #financiallyindependent than rely on their children for monthly maintenance as they do not wish to burden them since they have a family of their own to support"

#STForum: #Singaporeans have much to learn from the Finns
"I’m an #HDB dweller who is content with what I have – a loving #family, true #friends who are there when I need them (& vice versa), close #neighbours, & #community facilities & activities for #seniors such as community centres, free exercise classes & affordable workshops .. To me, #humility & #contentment are key to a #gracioussociety, which is something we all strive to make #Singapore to be"
