6 in 10 Singaporeans unsatisfied with property measures


They claim houses are still overpriced.

According to Singapore’s Property Affordability Index, a property sentiment survey conducted by PropetyGuru, the majority of respondents want more to be done to bring affordability back to baseline levels.


While the Jan 2013 cooling measures have induced a drop in rate of price growth for both private property and HDBs, there still is a lingering perception that property prices can further be normalized through the government’s continued efforts at influencing the demand and supply of property in the market.


This is reflected in the general satisfaction with the real estate climate dipping to 24% from 31% last quarter, with 3 out of 4 respondents highlighting overpriced property prices as the main reason for dissatisfaction. In fact, 60% feel that the government should step up their efforts to address the problem, 13% more in comparison to last quarter.


But despite this findings also show that Singaporeans are supportive of the government’s latest attempts at curbing the rapid property price growth in the market.


These include the introduction of the property cooling measures in Jan 2013 which imposes a higher Additional Buyers’ Stamp Duty (ABSD) on second or more properties, harsher restrictions for property purchase from foreign buyers and the announcement of an increase in supply of public housing.

when the fucking solution is obvious this cheebye khaw doesnt wanna do WTF can you do????




just legislate the following:


1. Only Citizens can own HDB

2. All current PR holders who own HDBs have 12 months to dispose off their HDB or to convert to citizenship

3. All sales private property transactions have to be to a singapore CITZEN (and not a fucking company)





This fucking PAP is in a gridlock because the fuckers are in a CONFLICT OF INTERESTS


doing the above will hurt their fucking pockets and thats why they dont really give a fuck about what the citizens want anymore...its more about protecting their fucking selfish private interests .....



fuck you pap!!!

The second line was inserted to tone down the negative stance of the article. So, which one is more pertinent?

Not going to happen..PAP has gone into rent seeking behaviour and too much vested interest in the property market. Prices cannot drop. However I thought 6 in 10 is a bit good for Khaw,,I thought that he would get an 80% failure rate...guess PAP is still popular.

Rising property prices are always a good indicator of prosperity.

I think they interviewed the property agents and the hardcore property flippers.

Oops, there goes some PAP votes! Hopefully the converted FTs can make up for the loss in votes. :wink:

I need to add..those tat bought their flat 2 years ago will benefit,,those that bought last year and especially this year,,,not sure if hey are really benefiting unless prices have gone up much more this time. But for the next generation it will be a problem as with the current stagnant wages in singkieland, they wont be able to afford to buy a home. And I do not think 90% benefits...those that dont have property and the next generation are definitely not benefiting unless they get to inherit their flats etc...so surely those that dont benefit cant be only 10% of the population right?

So 90% of sinkies are benefitting. Isn't that a good thing?

Rising property prices are always a good indicator of prosperity.

Rising property prices are also a good indicator for lack of housing infrastructure and overcrowding.

Thing is except for the lucky buggers who tio toto group 1, you dont see Singaporeans swimming in $$$.

Another indication of prosperity is public satisfaction. If everyone is prospering, few will bother kp the government. They will all be enjoying life, why go pua kang tao? When you see the government have record low votes during election, you should know how prosperous we are.
