<!-- START OF : div id="storytext"--><!-- more than 4 paragraphs -->KUDOS to the Government for its success in encouraging home ownership. However, like the 'Stop at Two' campaign to control population growth, its success in housing Singaporeans has raised fresh problems.
Many home buyers today are unrealistic in their expectations. If they insist on on a new flat, they must be prepared to wait and should not be disappointed when not given the choicest pick or worse, not selected.
With resale flats, which are a good alternative, be prepared to consider a unit that is smaller or farther from the town centre (where all amenities are) or at a lower level or less well renovated.
With flats that are generally cheaper as they are 'not so good', issues of excessively high valuation and cash over valuation can be drastically reduced. Like it or not, though not perfect, it is this 'let the market decide' process that allows many to upgrade to private housing after a few years.
Is there really a shortage of basic housing or are the expectations of many buyers unrealistically high?

Cut your clothes according to your cloth...but unfortunately the Lemmings only hear the wooden pinochio, playing the flute of the tune of " swiss standard of living", " Assets Enhance ment".

They forgot to be thrifty, and realistic!, many answers to the lure of the sirens ( men in whites); and march to a doom; that soon turn them WHITE!:(

He is referring to ALL MIWs.

Most MIWs wear hats too big for their heads.

That is why S'pore is tripping and falling; economically and socially.

Most MIWs are pseudo-smart.

They think they are talented when they are not. But they use the prostitute media to say they are.

Why did not the ghost writer question Sporn cab drivers being able to afford paying off a large 4-room flat in 5 - 10 years as sole bread winners 2 decades ago while graduate couples need to slog to pay off 30-year housing loan for a 4-room flat with the size of an equivalent 3-room flat today? While his Papaya masters are paid by the millions?

The mistake was that they can stretched their max loan to 30 years. Previously it was 20 years. Very soon it will be 50 years, you need your children to continue paying.
