the size of the stalls are still pathetic. Prove that Sinkies no balls to challenge LKY PAP dominance to improve standard of hawker stall.

Video taken 30mins ago

At 1:00 you see what used to be Queenstown Bowling Alley and Queenstown Cinema

At 1:11 you see what used to be the block 27A next to Queenstown ROV now becoming a condo

I wonder whether or not the HDB place an invitation in the local major newspapers, to invite tenders.
Who knows whether or not any other law firm(s) may be able and willing to provide the services at say $300 per conveyance?

sakali several law firms submit tenders, but the HDB ended selecting that law firm, for whatever reason(s).

Once again I will not be surprise. If they had rared so many kangaroos what can they not do?

Had a great hor-fun for breakfast this morning at Tanglin Halt Food Centre

Only $3 for this plate of horfun with a generous helping of duck meat, ask for more dark sauce gravy, its very "pang". The meat is very soft and fragrant with the lor-jab

This is the store

Charlie99 · Jun 1, 2015

Wow, looks delicious and plentiful for SGD$3.
A similar horfun will cost about Cdn$7 to $10.

Last 3 visits to Singapore wanted to have this delicious duck noodle at Tanglin Halt but closed finally today is lucky. Only $3 compare to my $12 wanton noodle yesterday

Used to have breakfast here years ago when lived near here. Finally I'm back this morning. One of the best kway-chap very old style taste the braised lor is light and and fragrant. Holland Market #02-02

It was never a tender process needed as far as I know. HDB has always allowed you to use your own lawyer. But if you did, the paperwork took several weeks later. Happened to friends of mine. they used Drew Napier to do their conveyancing and found out other people had their keys 2 weeks before them. But if you don't request to HDB that you want to use your own lawyer, they will simply default to Lee and Lee. Also, many people know about being tekaned if they don't use the HDB specified lawyers, so they just kwai kwai keep quite. Most other legal firms charge the same as Lee and Lee, so its not like they are saving a lot of money. But the fact that so many conveyancing directed to Lee and Lee, far in proportion to their market share of the legal business in singapore is already corruption.

Since hdb in business....lee & lee already was the default lawyers.
Back then $500 per transaction fees basically standard paperwork only.
Now is thousands. Can you imagine how much lee and lee made already? Machiam printing money with no need look for sales.
Later years no choice they have to open up this lobang to a few of their cronies. Still I believe already raked in billions

It's not just HDB. CPF Board is another cash cow for them, I believe. Since most, if not all, buyers use CPF savings to pay, it's likely that the "inner circle" law firms will have been on the panel of both HDB and CPF.

If you go to any Tom, Dick and Harry firms at People's Park, they can act for HDB, but not CPF. This is the reason why other law firms are unable to charge lower than Lee because Lee can waive one set of costs, but the other law firms who are not on CPF Panel will have to collect money from you to pay CPF Panel law firm.
