Jman888 Moderator July 31, 2014 Share July 31, 2014 (edited) It is actually quite worrying for me if the authorities give out the lease just based on bid amount They should evaluate the bid amount together with the value proposition of what the bidder wants to do with the place. That would ensure that the bidder brings the right kind of development and more importantly a sustainable one. I hope the authorities has that 5m development plan in detail and decided those plans are right and viable. And not just because they are the highest bidder. The place is not that big to build something massive as the lease period is temporary, hence I doubt those bidder actually come out with any good idea other than use it for F&B.

Pisces69 6th Gear July 31, 2014 Share July 31, 2014 This is the one and only reason why Sg is so expensive to live in. Outlying areas are bidded so high, there is no cheap place left to go relax. The only beneficiary is SLA, and eventually, only the rich will will be able to afford to patronise such places. If the business model fails, the place shuts down.. everybody loses. SG dun really have outlying areas, unless u mean those uninhabitated islands. If Sporeans want cheap n quick place to relax...... then we go Msia or Bintan. But now Maybe even Msia wil b out cos getting too expensive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thay wil say they wil consider ALL factors when awarding the tender. But in reality we all know they only see who bid the highest lah. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
magaritas 5th Gear August 1, 2014 Share August 1, 2014 It was never the job of the landlord to ensure tenant make "sustainable one". Landlord collect rental, tenant paid for it, whether business can survived or not, not landlord problem. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Landlord collect rental, tenant paid for it, whether business can survived or not, not landlord problem. Actually a landlord do have an interest to ensure their tenent succeds. If they do well. The value of the property increases. If the tenent fails cos of poor biz. Landlord sud find out why so next tenent dun also fail. If many tenents fail one by one, then pple wil think there must b something wrong with the place n next time nobody wan to rent it. Maybe got Hantu?

Donut Supercharged August 5, 2014 Share August 5, 2014 Quote Pump in $5 million but can start operation end of this year or beginning of next? Plus $169k lease/month, must not only break even within 3-year lease (or plus 3 more) but turn a profit? Must be a very interesting business model indeed. I'll believe it when I see it. i really doubt it will survive......... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
