wondering which idiot in mas go allow mortgage rates to go at 1% for an extended period of time. usa using low rates before they are suffering a deflation and using low rates to generate recovery. singapore was a fast economy so having extremely low rates is a recipe for disaster. now they have a big bubble that no ministars will dare to pop it.
Why still haven't crash?
I am still waiting for it!
PAP wants property price to "drop significantly", Tharman had said this several times and Khaw calls the property market a bubble fuelled by low interest rates that will collapse in a matter of time. This is not a secret by PAP, the 70% have voted for this so they deserve a property crash.
Lawrence Wong is a junior and has very little power on this, the cooling measures is decided by Tharman, and supply was decided by Khaw.
The evil greedy super rich developers had strong holding power and had foolishly refused to cut prices to sell off much of their inventory last year and early this year, thinking they can outlast the cooling measures. Now the developers are stuck with huge unsold inventory, a large oversupply and crashing demand, escalating vacancy rates and falling rents, rising interest rates and falling prices, and the economy is heading for a recession.
Now the developers have to slash prices much more to offload units than if they had did it last year and early this year. Hope the evil greedy developers die pain pain.
Nobody. MAS does not cotrol interest rate for the monetary policy. They manage FX.
looks like in 97',the sibor made many sinkies jump down and commit suicide.
can u imagine what would happen when sinkies owe 200k to 400k mortgage loan or 800k condo mortgage loan and the sibor rate goes up to 9 percent?lots of daft and stupid sinkies are going to be lieing at the bottom of the hdb voiddeck while their children wail over their parents dead bodies.and im going to be there licking up their delicious tears of sadness.oh your delicious indelectable tears oh so yummy!!!!your tears sustain me!!!

is khaw trying to incite fear in the market and saying prices will come down eventually?what about those sinkies who have paid sky high prices for their pigeon holes?will their cpf money be flushed down the drain?
and very nice of PAP to use this secondary school meeting as a propaganda session.
Using FX to control inflation seems not too effective these days when central banks all over the world can do massive printing whenever they feel like it. Is used to be quite ok during GKS era when money cannot printed anyhow. Just see how mas loses billions trying to control the FX rates.
