Voters know Late Ah Teh was a resourceful man but they never ask why HDB lifts were built not stopping at every floor in the 70s and 80s?

And now, we have FT praising lift upgrading .....did these people understand what was going on ?

You people may realise that many small blocks of flats look very aweful with 7 to 8 lifts serving one block....ridiculous, of course, maintenance funds may also go up(you people call HDB conservancy fees).

Besides, you can figure out that views from flats are blocked becos most lift upgrading is protruded out from the main facade. Not only that, sunshine and wind may also get blocked thus making the rooms hotter and dimmer without the lights on.

Lift upgrading transforms HDB pigeon holes into like URA factories !!! No joke, just gawk and think about it!

And some more, lift upgrading becomes a vogue during elections, what a mass stupidity !

I hope Alternative parties bring up this issue and perhaps request for inquiry into why lifts were built like that in the past.
Recall all contractors and subordinates working under late Ah Teh and investigates the issue meticulously. I think some may be still alive in singapore.

If lift not stopping at every floor was a past oversight or for other wrong reasons, HDB must apologise and install lifts for free.

Alternative parties should educate the voters on the issue and press for the right action.

Voters need to know the truth and not just vote for lift upgrading !

God bless all alternative parties and members ! May the force be with you !

Many of these are frightened into voting by the RC dogs, who 'bark' down their necks...and if they say no; "they howl, outside your door"...

The votes are never DEMOCRATIC...only a few dare say, NO!:p

let me see if this makes sense:

the flats belong to HDB, the HDB did not provide lifts at every level from the start, the HDB now wants lifts at every level, the HDB wants the occupants to co-pay for the lifts.

at any point in time does the flat belongs to the occupants of the flat? as far as i can remember, it is only a lease right? does it make any sense for the tenant to pay for something the tenant doesn't own?

:confused::confused::confused:

Talk to Ah Sohs in their 70s and they will tell you that Teh Cheang Wan is very "Yeow Siew" to the people as the National Development Minister.
