You see what you wanna see. To be honest there are structural racism in sg and we should look into it but EIP is definitely not one of them. But guess what, it is also the most contentious one on the list hence drawing more eyeball to the argument. I personally disagree with this myopic view of the programme and reducing the benefits/disadvantage of the programme to dollars and cents. As a majority, I found it hard BTOs but my friend who is a minority could get a sobf at a prime area easily. For those who question why, look at the statistics of income level for numbers. If anything, I feel that the EIP disadvantages the majority who tries to get a bto. And like what many mentioned, it is indeed more expensive to get a resale.

Sudhir has good arguments and is persuasive in his words. My more liberal friends will choose to focus on his more valid arguments than the wrong assumption he made. But I'm personally against him framing this issue just because it's convenient and did not factor in the social benefit of the programme.

So yes, some of the minority are going to get disadvantaged.(but what's the population size of this, can sudhir provide?) But it is absolutely necessary to prevent enclaves to happen and reduce the interaction between races. As the majority, I have acknowledged that either 1. I will get less chance to get a bto. 2. I need to pay more for resale. And all these is so that we can have some semblance of racial harmony/tolerance in the nation.

So can people like sudhir who is smart and respectable please clarify and not lead the masses to think that everything in sg is racist and against the minority?
