I agree with you.
ya
if they allow existing HDB owner to buy private proprty, they should also alow existing private property owner to buy HDB to live in it and rent out the private one
if they require private property owner to sell the private one after buying HDB, they should also require the same of the existing HDB owner to sell HDB once they buy the private property
please be fair to both side, either way
why victimise and target the private property owner ?
if you want to prevent dual-property ownership, why one a one-sided rule for 5 years ? please treat all your citizens EQUALLY !
the pledge says \"...based on justice and equality .....\" else where is progress, happiness ?
If govt allows the existing HDB owners buying private property, then they should allow existing private property owners to buy HDB, of course, these people should stay in the HDB flat and rent out their private property.
They should not discriminate these two groups of people. -
What is EQUAL may not necessarily be fair, and what is FAIR may not necessarily be equal.
Equalising taxation across all tax brackets ($2800 per man, woman and child, regardless of income status) may be extremely EQUAL, but would be far from being FAIR.
Opening a ballot to allcomers for popular schools, regardless of place of residence, so that those that live in poorer neighbourhoods are not disadvantaged, may be EQUAL, but probably is not FAIR.
So we have a policy that is aimed at giving first time flat owner a FAIR shake at getting a resale flat without killing themselves financially, but ends up being UNEQUAL in that access is restricted to certain groups.
It is the same across the board on MANY policies, like personal income taxation, access to subsidised healthcare, so I really fail to see why there is hue and cry over a really minor policy in housing. -
I think the social inequity hue and cry arises from the fact that both
a) HDB owner who purchases pte ppty to live in and rents out HDB subsequently
b) pte ppty owner who was thus far able to purchase resale HDB, live in it for a while without selling pte ppty, then move back to pte ppty and rent out HDB
can be of equal wealth.
thus why is a) now allowed but not b)?
My short answer is a)'s purchase links to ‘aspirations’ which the govt is wary of tinkering with. whereas b) types are seen as fat cats whom they need not pander to too much. -
one more piece of ballot paper for citizen for p1 registration is fair and square according to distance, as all citizens are treated the same
all earners paying the same rate of tax for the same amount earned is fair and square
even communist regime does not impose equal magnitude of tax payment regardless of income
to require an existing private ppty owner to sell it upon acquiring an HDB is unnecessarily vindictive…this is not pandering to the fat cats…this is penalising fellow citizens who need to downgrade living standard -
downgrade living standard but still own/rent out pte ppty still = rich, no?
