as a jaga it's tough to make ends meet. rather than renting the entire flat, may as well share a room hoping roommates can foot the bill during tough times or offer quid pro quo services to landlady to offset the rent.

Chitchat Oppie Upset That Dedicated HDB Officer Wants To Throw Out Loser Family For Not Paying Up Rent! O$P$! Use GST Vouchers Lah!
- Thread starter JohnTan
- Start date
Somebody has to pay. If the HDB provides FREE housing then it's the taxpayer who has to front up.
Sound like...sound like....a kek leng kia!.....can HDB officers or their staff have the rights to check on your bang accounts, entitlements in any form, or even yOUR CPF?...how does this fall under the privacy act?
Why the family did not approach the member of parliament, in which they had voted fro, for help? rather than highlight this on social media?. I thought if you O$P$...to the government, they will deduct what you owed & give you, what it is left, be it...$0.01 cents. These people must be, what the Hokkien says, " chow quan'...& most likely be...KEK LENG. What happened to the RC porlumpars? aren't the suppose to come & help too? now that election is cumming....

What's wrong with HDB officer asking the wife to pay rent using GST voucher?
A copy of a HDB letter believed to have been sent to a needy family has been going viral online, after a netizen alleged that the family were asked to vacate their rental flat after a HDB officer allegedly pressured the family to pay their arrears with their GST voucher monies.
The family allegedly consists of a pair of adults and their three schooling children, all of whom live in a rented 2-room studio apartment. The father allegedly works as a security guard while the mother works as a cashier.
Sharing a copy of the letter, Facebook user Nayo Udol Toot Toot – a friend of the needy children’s father – wrote: “1 month notice! She came twice this month asking for the $$ and ask the wife ‘once you recieve GST’ go and pay the outstanding. She warned the wife, give the date until 15th of Aug to settle the outstanding. This is ridiculous!”
In the comments section of his post, Nayo Udol elaborated on why the handling of this case is “ridiculous”. Referring to Michelle, the officer who supposedly signed the letter, the netizen asserted:
“The problem is..she is a General Manager, how can she asking the wife ‘when receive gst’ make the payment. And she warn the wife some more…She came like money lender keep asking to make payment. She don’t listen to the wife that really in dificulties”
Nayo Udol further said: “She abuse her power. She dare to ask the wife personal GST some more. Did she has the right to ask the wife her gst?”
When other netizens suggested that the family should have approached HDB to share their difficulties and ask for an extension to make payments, Nayo Udol claimed: “She meet several time and had told them her problem. Even consult comcare, cdc for help. The problem is, they just want the $$$. They only listen to you but end of the day, no money no talk”
While some netizens asked whether they could band together and assist the family, the majority of those responding to the post said that the netizen’s story is one-sided and that HDB usually gives chances to those in dire straits:

It's probably a lawyer's template for generic use for non payment of rent. How much is the rent anyway?
HDB must have made a mistake....there is no such thing a a poor Singaporean.
The poor Singaporeans are found in Parliament, where they once earned $5,000,000 now $1,000,000 or less, so poor thing.
How about the notes things?? how many millions were lost? The PAP was once an oppositions in which they were deem to be untrustworthy,,cannot be even be trusted with 5 sen, what are you mumbling about? The WP TC inherited a mess left over by the inefficient PAP TC....yes!, the WP TC were incompetent...but they do not suck 'blood' that much, like the FAT LEECHES bred by the RC's , CC's TC's...etc.
If we allow a government to run a country for too long a time, without any checks!....we are certain to meet our doom, some point in time, if not now, tomorrow or in the future.
Some times...it's the ppl who left them selves behind. Look at this low SES couple. It's obvious that they r poor as n yet they breed. Children r the main cause of poverty bcos resources are diverted away from upgrading themselves to earn more. In singkieland more training is required for security guards due to upskilling. This chap could have upgraded himself n become a supervisor. Do more overtime etc to earn more n put money towards his flat. His wife just work 8 he's a day n look after the house. If they r m&ds...she can make pastries at home n sell. In cny can earn from Cina. Save cost. Go over to JB on off day. Buy flour n butter etc to save on raw materials. Earn n put in flat. Than later have 1 kid. Is that wrong? N singkieland contraception doo easily available..n pills etc not expensive.. why don't plan for the future? Security guard is reserved for singkies n m&ds..PRC etc cannot do..n more n more jobs reserved for singkies only.
Not to mention the HDB officer was only doing his job as directed by his superiors. Shoot the king not the messenger
Wait I forgot to ask... Guess the Estate?

Security guard pay is increasing. N there is increasing demand for upskilling n getting qualifications. The pay is higher for those with more qualifications n the demand for the more upskilling ones are increasing. So are cleaners etc...the security supervisor pay is now 3k. And security has a lot of OT. And the job just sit down. N walk around ...hard meh? Jaga condo is the best...make friends with the maids etc
工人党 is a very small party lacking of manpower & other resources.
Without them in 2011, sinkies will suffered even more now than a decade ago.
When they become gahmen. They use state resources to run the country.
Unlikely but they are the only oppie with decent talented people.
On the ground .. they really help & solve resident's living financial concerns.
They cannot become gahmen bcos they admitted they not ready. They just shot themselves in the foot.
why have to pay? then make it free housing. afterall pinkie promised every1 will get housing.
