Homeless Singaporean
By rick @ 6:38 PM :: 1004 Views :: 7 Comments :: :: General
 

Dear all,

It has been a sad discovery that there are still quite a number of Singapore borned Singaporeans whom goes round looking for a place to live whole year round.

I wonder whether government can help on this besides having a scheme for singles to afford buying HDB flats upon reaching 35 years old. 

Below are one uncommon situations which lead some Singaporeans having a hard time looking for a home.

etc.) Old parents with one young children sold flats and live with other married childrens 15 years ago. Young children is now 30 years and single. Siblings having difficulty for this 30 years old sibling a space to stay.

This 30 years old children life is greatly affected due to living problems. He could not get own home although there is sufficient money in CPF for downpayment, could not rent a room from HDB as income is over $1,500, cannot afford to rent from public as rental is too high.

Should government consider a more lenient way for such situation that allow this 30 years old children to rent or get a HDB flat before he reach 35 years old?

Can I suggest that 30 year old person share and rent a room with colleagues or working friends or study mates.That way can reduce cost and solve the problem.
