      As I said, they try to cool 20% private property market when the property bubble is in 80% HDB property market & commercial & industrial properties and causing the high inflation! :slapshead:

      Like I expected CM7 can't cool the property market!

      Looks like CM8 is coming soon......................................................... :evil: (please also target commercial properties now and regulate REIT to cut business cost!)

      New private home sales jump by 43% in January

      ----------------------------------------------------------------------

      SINGAPORE: Sales of new private homes in Singapore jumped by about 43 per cent on-month in January 2013, despite the latest round of cooling measures introduced last month.

      According to the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA), 2,013 units of new private homes - excluding executive condominiums - were sold in January, compared to 1,410 units sold in December 2012.

      A URA spokesperson said about 60 per cent of the 2,013 units were sold before January 12 - before the latest cooling measures took effect.

      The remaining 40 per cent of the units were transacted from January 12 onwards.

      The data released by URA on Friday showed that 350 units of new private homes located in the core central region were sold in January.

      Meanwhile, developers moved 376 new units in the city fringe and 1,287 units in the suburban areas.

          Sorry hor, I didn't ask to abolish NS completely but asked to cut defense budget to very minimum.

          Why spend so much money? we are not going for war, even if we do, you thought we can win the war ?
          :yikes:

          :faint:

            The point of NS is that we are serious about defence and we fight to win. Right now, there is no one in the region that can come in and beat us, NO ONE.

            Please quit embarrassing yourself.

            If you cut NS to 1 year, you will have no one to come in and beat us too. You thought others didn't come in is attributed to our defence?

            You don't argue for the sake of arguing. I'm asking to cut defence budget but not asking to abolish defence.

            You know nothing about this matter, don't talk as if you even have a clue.[/quote]You understand? let me 洗耳恭听!
            All I know is many countries are cutting their defence budget including US and also reducing their NS term(for those mandatory). Why Singapore is not following suit? They are so many foreigners here in Singapore, you thought our neighbors dare attack us?
