<!-- START OF : div id="storytext"--><!-- more than 4 paragraphs -->I read with shock the recent news about Renaissance Properties winning the tender for the new Sengkang wet market with a bid of $500,100 a month ('Sengkang folk worried over high wet-market bid', April 5).
The reply by the Housing Board in the report is that prices are determined by the private operators and it is in their own interest to price their food and goods affordably.
Has HDB's role changed? Being a government agency, shouldn't the HDB ensure that food and goods prices at such places stay affordable for citizens?
The awarding of the tender to the highest bidder as well as the nonchalant way in which its reply was framed suggest that the HDB is now profit-driven.
This should not be the case.
What are HDB's reasons for not giving the tender to the second-
highest bidder, Sembawang New Market?
Is the HDB setting a precedent, and would this then spiral down to the housing sector, leading to flats that are exorbitantly priced?

Singapore's World Records
On this small island lives the 30 best-paid politicians in the world, comments a blogger. MySingaporeNews.
Apr 3, 2009
As the economic crisis worsens and thousands are being retrenched, the huge salaries of Singapore's political leaders have come under the spotlight not only here - but overseas.
With G20 leaders gathering in London to work out solutions to the global crisis, the Times compiled a list of "the 10 best-paid politicians in the world" - naturally with Singapore's Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong taking the top spot.
The story was picked up by The Australia, which also works out their salaries when ranked against population.
Mr Lee earns S$3.76 million (US$2.47 million) a year, excluding bonuses, allowances, pensions, etc which add on a significant bit.
This is about 54 cents per head of population. In second position was his counterpart from New Zealand at 9 cents. The rest of the world are all down there, below even the lowest-ranking minister in Singapore.
But Singaporean blogger redbean's "My Singapore News" carries a calculation from its reader, Green Peas, expanding on the UK and Australian reports.
It pointed out that the world's 30 best-paid politicians (a definition that will include ministers, elected president, etc) are all from Singapore.
Here's what the blogger says:
The TOP 30 highest paid politicians in the world are all from Singapore:
1. Elected President SR Nathan - S$3.9 million.
2. Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong - S$3.8 million.
3. Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew - S$3.5 million.
4. Senior Minister Goh Chok Thong - S$3.5 million.
5. Senior Minister Prof Jayakumar - S$3.2 million.
6. DPM & Home Affairs Minister Wong Kan Seng - S$2.9 million.
7. DPM & Defence Minister Teo Chee Hean - $2.9 million
8. Foreign Affairs Minister George Yeo - S$2.8 million.
9. National Development Minister Mah Bow Tan - S$2.7 million.
10. PMO Miniser Lim Boon Heng - S$2.7 million.
11. Trade and Industry Minister Lim Hng Kiang - S$2.7 million.
12. PMO Minister Lim Swee Say - S$2.6 million.
13. Environment Minister & Muslim Affairs Minister Dr Yaccob Ibrahim - S$2.6 million.
14. Health Minister Khaw Boon Wan - S$2.6 million.
15. Finance Minister S Tharman - S$2.6 million.
16. Education Minister & 2nd Minister for Defence Dr Ng Eng Hen - S$2.6 million.
17. Community Development Youth and Sports Minister - Dr Vivian Balakrishnan - S$2.5 million.
18. Transport Minister & 2nd Minister for Foreign Affairs Raymond Lim Siang Kiat - S$2.5 million.
19. Law Minister & 2nd Minister for Home Affairs K Shanmugam - S$2.4 million.
20. Manpower Minister Gan Kim Yong - S$2.2 million.
21. PMO Minister Lim Hwee Hwa - S$2.2 million.
22. Acting ICA Minister - Lui Tuck Yew - S$2.0 million.
23 to 30 = Senior Ministers of State and Ministers of State - each getting between S$1.8 million to S$1.5 million.
Note: 1. The above pay does not include MP allowances, pensions and other sources of income such as Directorship, Chairmnship, Advisory, Consultancy, etc to Gov-linked and gov-related organisations or foreign MNCs such as Citigroup, etc.
2. Though it is based on an estimate, the data cannot be far off the official salary scales.

Marboro Tan is a cruel vermin who supports Housing Mafia decisions to cram old peasants into rental flats to 'prevent abuse'.

Last year, one old peasant was beaten to death over a small dispute and the spotlight shined on Marboro Tan.

Proving that conscience is not part of his dictionary, Marboro Tan claimed he will fight to the bitter end than come up with more rental flats.

Apparently his aging kin, fearful of retribution, managed to talk some sense to Marboro and in recent months, more rental flats were offered and smaller new flats are making a comeback.

I smell a rat.Is the recent food poisoning saga a prelude for future hawker-centers to be built for tenders?Everytime something happens it becomes an excuse for PAP to 'privatise for profiteering.Mabrok Tan should know.

.An old uncle told me big fires were deliberately started in kampongs to make way for HDB in the olden days.Now HDB pigeon holes cost you a leg and a arm.Similarly with Singtel,MRT,PUB and etc.Privatize,privatize privatize.Which essentially means taking out from the left pocket and putting back into the right pocket....Charging more.

The cat is now out of the bag.Wet markets are tendered now.Soon hawker centers will follow.So what was all this fuss about food poisoning in Geylang Serai.Was it actually a posturing to privatize hawker centers for profits?Me wonder...

May be its Marlboro who sent in his rats?

Just like the case of Beauty World. The people refused to shift into the Beauty World Complex. Then just by coincident a fire incident and a few houses were burnt down. After that the Garment order everyone to move into Beauty World Complex. The old Beauty World area is still vacant till now, part of it an open air car park.

There were rumours that the Garment sent some one to start a fire to justify the move.
