Any surprises that this is so?
Until today we have not seen or heard a coherent housing policy since he replaced MBT. Its like playing catchup strategy so far, instead of a hard nosed clear-minded idea of where he wants to go, how he wants to do it, by when he should get there.
There KBW, I've opened the door a liitle so that some light gets thru your thick skull. If you still don't get it....tsk tsk...
Lets dissect his thoughts:
"Are prices affordable generally for most units? I think we have achieved that in the last few months with the pricing of the new BTO flats."
BTO prices are at its highest ever since. How can that be translated to affordable. Maybe he meant that the mortgages are affordable. But wait, when prices of units escalate faster than wages, how can it be affordable?
Current housing prices ara at its highest peak, and it happens under KBW's watch. Are you trying to snook us?
"These month to month fluctuations, I won't waste time worrying about."
That was what MBT thought too. If I have a minister that will not worry and only takes the longest timeline projections to make him worry, then I'm worried.
Maybe what he meant was that at the end of the day, we all die. So monthly, don't worry, Yearly, also don't worry. Decades, no worries. Only worry every century, and by then we're dead, so why worry?
"Its the overall picture (that matters), and the overall picture is that the situation now is totally different from a year ago."
We can take some bullshitting by politicians. But this one takes the cake. You mean less than one year after KBW takes over and the houses have been built? Has the prices stabilised? No, it has not.
Trying to pull wool over our eyes just does not cut it for a politician in this day and age.
The real overall picture is that housing is increasingly becoming unaffordable for our children. That is as big picture as anyone can realistically get. It will happen in our lifetime that an average Joe just cannot own a public home at the rate KBW is snoring.
One year ago home prices were expensive. Now its unaffordable. That is how different one year makes with an incompetent, overpaid housing minister in charge.
