          Hi, any feedback on zhangde and gan eng seng primary school? Which is more preferred? Was balloted out from rmps in phase 2A2 and 2C likely no chance, so maybe zhangde or gan eng seng will be my next choice

            Sorry to hear that.
            You can go for Zhangde in 2C, and Gan Eng Seng as backup in 2CS. If it's DD, can go for CHIJ (Kellock)

                If you’re going to cough up the money to buy/rent <1km, pick a school that does not need balloting for <1km phase 2B.

                In this case, CHIJ Toa Payoh.

                Kong Kwa previous years sometimes balloting <1km for 2B. Recent years demand dropped, dunno why.

                Ai Tong and Nan Chiau, don’t bother. They would be like your $0.5-2 million investment is just to buy a TOTO ticket.

                  And CHIJ TPY with affiliation is definitely worth to invest for a good 10 years.

                    Plus you don’t have to clock up PV hours with CHIJ TP - just attend your regular church on Sunday (which I assume you are going to do anyway).

                    Kong Hwa issue could be due to (lack of) neighborhood rejuvenation. Apart from Dakota, which is mainly SERS not BTO, there hasn’t been many new and major developments.
