      I would avoid D'Leedon, cheap for many reasons!

      Coolkidsrock2:
      Not Shelford Green.

      Balmoral was arranged by DH so I cannot remember the name.

      The small projects in the area are in this price range.

      For now, the few agents I spoke with all told me the best value is D'leedon. It was also mentioned by another forummer. I caveat that this is not advice to anyone.

          What has your question got to do with my comment?

          Just seeking your opinion, since you have concluded that the large population is beneficial only to the rich.... cos I am as lost as you! :evil:

          Whether an overcrowded population benefits only the rich has no relation to whether we should turn the nation into peasants.

          We need not turn the nation into peasants even if we do not want excessive population growth leading to overcrowding, if you're expecting an answer from me.[/quote]No, we don't have to turn the nation into peasants, they naturally would if we just sit duck and leave it as it is, in next 3 generations!

          But may be turn everyone into peasants right now (if the gov could) we don't need to increase our population ever, or bother about sustaining our economic growth!

          No economic growth KPKB, got growth cannot sustain also KPKB, want to sustain but don't want the bitter pill, also KPKB!

          Let's die together in a natural death! Pop champagne!

            Furnishing is below average, a lot of wastage in units, irregular shaped rooms, estate too many units (>1700 units!) & yet facilities insufficient to cater for so many units, security guards will be useless (who can remember so many residents?)!

                    I'm still waiting for people to say what they want leh. :scratchhead:


                    Shall we have 0.00% population growth between now and 2030? :evil:
                    Yes. someone already discussed the different alternatives which people should have a choice.

                    Our productivity has not even reached the level of developed nation and there is still room for improvement. 5% GDP growth due to 5% population increase isn't going to give existing citizens a better quality of life. But a 1-2% GDP growth due to productivity increase will lead to better life even with 0% population growth.

                      Sigh. That's the question they forgot to ask themselves. Everything also they want, only don't know how to justify. Hence no answer!


                      Many laymen like us we have no answers coz we dont have the data and the knowledge to formulate this kind of plans.

                      What we have is an 'instinct' and a 'gut feel', that this 7 million figure doesnt make sense in this small country.

                      What we have is the distrust in the government that they can come up with the infrastructure that can sustain this number for most of us, esp our offspring, to live comfortably in the future.

                      When we don't have the answers, does it mean that we have to shut up and sit down and let the 'wise ones' plan and do whatever they want?
