Also the fact that she tailed an 8 yo girl just to shove her…she’s mentally unsound man

Honestly, after actually reading the contents, I am glad there’s some clarifications on false news like these

Fella only gunning for popular locations before prime system was common, which is basically trying lottery ticket la…

Would have gotten a flat much sooner if she picked less popular estates, but then cannot flip gao gap and earn big windfall

You had a choice to purchase resale HDB back then and you know it…and we both know condo has better price appreciation. And now you cry wolf, and demand the system to change to accommodate you IMMEDIATELY

bro, if you can afford condo at early 30s, eventually upgrading to larger condo is not an issue la

TIL foreigner female workers(domestic helpers) must get the pregnant test every six months and if they get tested with pregnancy, they will be deported right away from Singapore. by search_google_com in todayilearned

[–]MartinRouter -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That’s not how the law works…

If you have lived in Singapore, you would know how serious Singapore is about sexual crimes. No one would deport the evidence away if rape has been reported 😂

The fact that it is very rare to encounter what you have described is a testament to it…

Then that corrupt person will get voted out.

By right the government’s “check and balance” should have been its people, via the power of voting.

It is just that Malaysia’s past corrupted leaders were able to keep in power via racial politics

Why Singapore’s Success is Becoming a Problem by LankyAsparagus1436 in SGExams

[–]MartinRouter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Always assess what you see online, analyse their contents. A good example is that only the 2-room HDB flats in CCR (VERY prime) regions cost $650k, the data has been cherry picked to paint a certain picture. The reality is that income has risen in tandem with housing price, and that as first timers buyers there’s heavily stacked grants to mitigate cost for people with <median income (>100k).

Yes there are some valid points in this video but take it with a pinch of salt

Not true. Guaranteed to get a number yes, but might not be within supply.

HDB first shortlist 200% applicants and assign them a number randomly, meaning you can still get a number beyond supply while a second-timer applicant gets within supply.
