The Govt must allow people to fail and learn in the process. Just like a Parent, sometimes we know that our kid is doing something the wrong way and we may to too quick to spoonfeed them by immediately teaching the right way. Let them discover when they hv done it wrongly and the better way to do it. Let people fail when they should, let them learn a true lesson. Let people rejoice when they succeed, let them reap their fruits of labor. Todays Singapore is spoonfed. No thanks to how it has been run. Our previous generations tasted success as well as great failures, they dont just stretch out their hands and ask for help. Today, dont care whether success or failure, just stretch out and demand. Thats the way. Dont believe me, ask around. Go do a video like iQuadrant, roam the hdb areas. 😁😎 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In their favor, as you know. Unscrupulous People will always use whatever is in their favor to get what they want. HongKong is very very different from singapore in a multitude of aspects including political and ethnicity and history and economics. if Singapore becomes like Hong Kong, we will be super f**ked. .....

Hong Kong used to be similar but over the past decade Singapore has slowly created it's own branding; China has a say in Hong Kong and that furthers differentiate us. Why I brought Hong Kong up is because history is a good teacher and Singapore does not want to follow it's footsteps especially in properties. The trend is real but one significant difference is our government. Like you said, if all those spoon feeding support is gone, Singapore is f**ked. The worrying part is not just a large portion of Singaporean's $$ is in properties but also people believing the spoon feeding support will always be there. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The propping up actually embolden risky behaviour. One will be encouraged to buy as though property returns is now low, it is justifiable because price at worst will be maintained.

Exactly what spoon feeding support has Singapore government done for the property market? I thought most government policies in recent times is to cool down property sector. The government don’t even control the biggest factor I feel which is interest rate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait ..... you really dont know or you just joking? The whole bloody covid budget is spoonfeeding support. Deferment of instalments. Etc... spoonfeeding and support by putting in place too many measures to prevent failure. TDSR itself is spoonfeeding support. The property market cools down on it own when people get f**ked. What they have done is created social problems. Eg. Decoupling of properties, buying properties on single names to go around ABSD nevermind, this reminds me of why i always end up getting flabbergasted talking to you.

As long as meet TDSR means confirm no problem, confirm sure win, confrim life is a bed of roses. Confirm liao, becos Govt look at TDSR. See the reliance of this group of people? Terrible.... How crazily naive can Singaporeans be?

We are exactly like Digital Quartz watch and Vintage Rolex suahk....... Relax lah.. don't get too agitated. Covid budget is not targeted at property. I am sure it is not the intention of the government to prop up the property market. TDSR is definitely not supporting the property market. ABSD also not supporting the market. The only thing that is outright property related support is the deferment of housing instalments which I am not sure if it is a big thing. My point is that the biggest support for today's property market is the interest rate, which unfortunately the government does not control directly. If they are trying to prop up the market, the first thing will be to unroll all the cooling measures which they did not. It means the market is still pretty warm (low interest rates) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meanmachine 6th Gear October 26, 2020 Share October 26, 2020 G will never touch the cooling measures, since it is now 10/11 th times since implementation, why should G tweak or partially reduced rates to steer property market, I don't see any benefits for them. One thing for sure G may remove the old ERP gantry for the new satellite based ERP, it's 1-1 exchange. Sp is not in a dire state condition whereby property market attract every single one of us, be it buying own stay or purely 2nd home for rental returns or investment portfolios, if so they would have done the honour of getting rid of the C.M to stabilise the local market.

Showster Twincharged October 26, 2020 Share October 26, 2020 To be honest, SG already factored in all the taxes to finance the Pioneer, Merdeka generation packages. Even if not direct, it’s going to be indirect financing. Not to mention the Covid measures. The collection cannot be allowed to fall significantly. If the sale volume drops, tax per transaction is expected to increase even more, which means either higher tax rate or transaction value (price) will increase. ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
