$1.9 billion of deficit is land cost? $100 million is other expense.
HDB bankrupt? Where are the accounting breakdown numbers. Cost vs Sales. The chance of Cee Pee F bankrupt is more real than HDB bankrupt. Sinkies need to be very worried of the hands that rock our CPF cradles. Nobody knows whether your "BABY" is still there.

On one side SLA charges HDB the land given at market price, on the other units sucked up by Sinkies and big Daddy covers part of it with grant to balance the equation. Too bad this year lesser peoples bought the pigeon hole hence this figure pops up. Guess more new citizens on the way to eat and digest these unsold units.
in sillycon valley, all city mayors wish they would have a federal housing program (hud doesn’t even cum close to 6.9% of hdb) to help ease the acute housing and homelessness crises facing each city today. the round table below will give you an idea on how fucked up housing and homelessness are in the bay area currently. sinkies should consider themselves lucky for having the hdb.
the problem is pubic housing is located in undesirable areas such as next to a landfill or in a former shipyard or industrial plant full of toxic chemicals and oil in the ground. county, state, and federal lands within urban and suburban environments are never in good residential locations. the worst are former naval bases with “secret” storages for spent nuclear fuel and waste, especially radiation drums tossed from docking nuclear powered subs and aircraft carriers, hunter’s point/bayview in sf for example. radiation is still there after so many decades of decommissioning. it’s exacerbated with low ses, crime-infested and poverty-stricken segments of the population moving into these projects as they are open to families receiving section-8 welfare (i.e. both state and federal govs pay up to $1.69k of monthly rent). plus they are not permanent homes. rentals only. long term rentals if families (usually broken ones) continue to receive section-8 and are not in rental arrears for over 6.9 months. and since most of the units are usually occupied with short to mid term rentals (6.9 months to 6.9 years) entire projects becum ghettos and dumps. no resident nor tenant cares and is proud of their “home” (it’s never considered a home), and everyone of them thrashes it. they can’t sell or trade it. why should anyone clean up the common corridor when someone pukes on it, defecates, or smoke joints or pump needles at the doorstep?Public housing in US is a joke. But it is cheap, much cheaper than HDB.
Sounds legit. LolIf HDB really lose $2b then the HDB Chief and the respective Minister should immediately resign and Khaw hara kiri.
They should be sued like Wayang Party MPs too and made to pay back these losses.If HDB really lose $2b then the HDB Chief and the respective Minister should immediately resign and Khaw hara kiri.
