MANY PAST THE AGE OF 70 are physically incapacitated to varying degrees – what is the use of returning their money to them past that age by installment under false pretense of nanny-look-after-the-kid hypocrisy that they would splurge all in Batam? So ladies cougar go to Bali and buy toy-boy for sex too?
I HAVE COMPELLING APPREHENSION THAT THE PUBLIC MINDS quite justifiably, THINK CPF SCHEME IS A FRAUD. And this is not far from law and reality. Both in statutory and common law applications, there is NO SUCH A THING AS TRUSTEESHIP TO MORTALITY. You might as well tells us that your money is confiscated for undisclosed needs elsewhere (a secret of national interest confidentiality again or it is not in our interest to tell you???) bullsh*t.
If the contrary is true, then fund management is the most lucrative business. Anyone with a licence to operate investment banking can solicit for public money, and once in the receipt of possession, then change the rule that investors CANNOT SELL OUT AND WITHDRAW THEIR MONEY until mortality hits. The offending investment bank as a legal entity exists in perpetuity – IT THEREFORE INHERITS PUBLIC MONEY SOLICITED AND OBTAINED IN CIRCUMSTANCES OF DECEIT AND LEGALISED FRAUD and keeps it as its own.
IS THAT LAW OR INVESTMENT BANKING OR BOTH – if it is allowed to incubate to this degree of absurdity?

Pap MPs may not get million dollars as politicians, but most of them hold well paying jobs or very profitable businesses. Their combined remuneration would be in the hundreds of thousands, if not millions. Impossible for them to understand and empathize with the common man who needs his CPF to live because his earning power has diminished with age.

those pap MPs are not in clown pap inner circle so for them to talk as if they know the truth is nothing but fake news.
even our esteemed Mr Ong TC did not know how much is pap kitty even though he was the President.
from normal human behaviour, as long as someone delays in repaying us our OWN money, it is not wrong to say that someone has already spent our money and is in difficult to repay us so come out with all manner of lies BS fake news to delay returning to us our OWN money.
it is not wrong to say our OWN money has been squandered by the pap fools in gic temasick. these pap fools are proven to be spending dollars reaping cents. no need Cambridge economics degree also know CPF is kosong already.

The above are comments in a post titled, 'The betrayer of CPF members', posted in the TRE by Simon Lim.

As more and more seniors reached the ripe age of 65 and beyond, more would realise that every day is a bonus and it is pure stupidity to think that they could live for many more years and to deny them their hard earned life savings is a very cruel thing to do, and UNACCEPTABLE.

They are very angry and would throw their votes for the opposition. From the sample comments above you can feel their anger in their bones.

Temperature rising, Dad's Army furious and want their CPF money back! This is like the charge of the White Hair Brigade. Stop scheming, when they scheme you scream.

I guarantee you 200% even if Oppo take over SG govt, they will NOT allow sinkies to withdraw ALL their CPF. At most will tweak to allow slightly more withdrawal & maybe at younger age e.g. 62.

I also guarantee 200% any future govt who is daring enough to let all Sinkies withdraw ALL their CPF at 55 or 62 or 65 will be thrown out within 2 terms. And the next govt will REINSTATE BACK the CPF restrictions. I bet only 1 or 2 on this blog will know the reason ;); March 02, 2019 9:21 AM

Many 40+ and 50+ year old Sinkies already have more than SGD1 million in cash or near-cash outside CPF.

These are the PMETs who have benefited from working hard & working smart, and having strong salaries & economy in the 1980s & 1990s.

They have another few hundred K in CPF, which is of course important to them. But they don't need to withdraw all out at once. They don't mind withdrawing a bit at a time, or as & when they want.

I have 2 relatives in their 60s who still keep >$500K in their OA and SA accounts. They have started to receive the few hundred $$$$$ monthly from their RA accounts.

Since 2018, these 2 old relatives have also started to use PayNow on their handphones to withdraw a bit of $$$$ from their SA & OA --- they receive the cash within 10 seconds as they confirm using their internet banking apps on their handphones. No need to go to any CPF office or talk to any staff.

Obviously you don't know much about CPF.

My relatives minimised their RA by pledging their properties. Their RA is quite small. Most of their CPF is in SA and OA.

They can withdraw from SA and OA anytime, and any amount. Normally they will withdraw only the accumulated interests, since they don't need to touch the principal.

BTW, I'm calling your bluff on $1K monthly payouts from $100K in your RA or CPF Life.
$100K in RA will only give you barely $600 per month, likely less.

If CPF really allow $1K from $100K RA, you will run out of CPF-RA money in less than 11 years, even with average 5% interest rate for RA. (6% for first $30K, 5% for next $30K, 4% for subsequent amounts)

No possible lah! CPF issues mostly affect those who retired. Younger ones already maxed out for housing and only kept what is mandatory for medisave and retirement. They do not consider the implications of the rulings at their age. It is only when they are reaching retirement that they will think about their CPF withdrawal for old age.

Therefore, changing the mindset of the 70% younger voters is difficult, while the older retires keep kicking the bucket by and by. Where can we find the numbers for the opposition to reach 51%?; March 02, 2019 12:17 PM

Virgo49 said...: I also do not understand why in the first place if your Realtives had so much in the OA and SA.

Think now after official withdrawal at 55, OA and SA already lumped into RA. Anyway, if you meet that's MS at that year for that Cohort, your balance outstanding balance amount is able to be withdrawn previously at onl y once a year nearer to your Birthday but now anytime as due to you, why the need to pledge their properties at half and get less if they don't really need the payouts and have more interests?

Let me answer that for you. It's because they also DO NOT TRUST the Board as put it bluntly.

Better to halve it and get it out safely wheras the Balance they presumed in their minds the remaiming "O" A or what's "SA" can also be quickly withdrawn if rumors are detrimental to our interests.

Am I not correct? So just don't assume that just because of this arrangmeant, they do not need and cherished their CPF's monies.

I don't want to alarm and be accused of spreading false news and that Shame Guy will hammer me with a sledgehammer.

For all you know. With their Majority MPs now in Parliament, they can now simply have a bill and passed it in Parliament within one seating that you are not even allowed to withdraw any balance amount that you may still have in your CPF's accounts less now the CPF's Life Scheme that you now have.

Don't take it as a Joke. The reason that they can give is that you should have withdrawn all in the first place. Why keep it inside.Once inside then its ours NOT yours.

Thare are other means of having your withdrawn FULL monies in other Securities besides just keeping them inside for that extra 2 or 3 per cent more than Banks rates.

One NTUC Security Bond that for $100K for a period of 8 years only
from either cash or you withdraw from your CPF's OA a sum of just 20K per year for 5 years. Making it a total of 100K.

Next 3 years till the 8 year no more withdrawal and for 100K they pay you about 145K in all. An interest of 15K. Which is more than the CPF's interests if you had still there.

No doubt your CPF's interest earned is about 24K for 8 years but you ara withdrawing 20K per year for 5 years and you still earned that extra interests from the Board for 5 years or so.

Added together the interests much more than your 100K in the OA.

So, not necessary you earned more interests laying in the Board. Which is also a Risk Factor.Ahem.

The best is that after the 5 years they offered to pay you back you monthly for the next three years before the Maturity Date with another lump sum of the balance amount.

They paying you monthly 1000 plus for 3 years. Together with your CPF's Life payouts,wah can patronize Genting liao.

Somemore await the Final Maturity date of the balance plus bonus interests.

Safer than that OA account.No guarantee that can be withdraw if things come to unforseen circumstances.

That's why we must have at least enough Opp MPs to thwart any Bills that can become laws and we just sucked thumps.; March 02, 2019 12:38 PM

Hi Uncle,

If you don't have enough money in CPF, you won't understand how it really works. ;)

1. If you still working after 55, your extra SA & OA can only withdraw once a year.

2. If you already retired after 55, your extra SA & OA can withdraw anytime & in any amount throughout the year.

3. My relatives turned 55 during mid-2000s. At that time the Minimum Sum only $90+K.
They pledge property, so only need to put $45+K into RA.
The rest can remain in OA and SA, which will be totally under their control.

4. Most Sinkies will immediately withdraw 100% of their extra SA and OA money.
My relatives left the money inside SA and OA in order to earn the interests --- impossible to get FD or any investment paying guaranteed rates so high in strong SGD currency.

They also have cash savings outside CPF, so use those first, and let their CPF money earn bigger interest rates in SA and OA.

If you are still working then the contributions for current will still go the OA and can be withdraw yearly if they met their MS requirements.

What I am saying is that why your Realtives if in no need the CPF's monies pledged their property for CPF's Life MS in half?

Why don't in FULL and have FULL premiums? If no need to use their CPF's monies. Somemore wah higher interests?

It's beacause they need to play safe and wuthdraw this half to supplment their savings before the Life Premium payouts.

So dont say they No need the monies.

I had already said the NTUC Life Savers Premium Fund pay more than the combined CPF's interests.

Maturity at 145K (Interests at 45K to CPF's 24K)for 100k after 8 years. So which is better?

"Govt Leaders Lack Political Acumen* by Inderjit Singh, Businessman & former PAP MP.

Singh has criticized government leaders for lacking acumen, citing the implementation of Care shield Life and parking fees for teachers as examples.

Speaking to the press during a Care shield Life debate, he said:

Bottom line is leaders should exercise a greater political judgement in policy-making. The civil servants have presented to the political leaders a logical scheme based on what a market driven approach would look like. But the government is not a company and we cannot apply what may seem logical in a market driven system to policies affecting the lives of citizens the government was elected to serve. Our leaders need to be able to take what the civil servants present to them and fine tune whatever policy or scheme they want to implement to improve the lives of the majority of Singaporeans.

On the issue of charging teachers up to S$110 a month for parking, market rates should not apply as school premises are not public car parks.

The idea is logical, to have a clean wage system and the charges teachers have to pay are close to the market rates. In reality, schools are not public car parks, so market rates should not apply. So, we either charge teachers a token amount only or just don't charge them. This requires political judgement. I guess this government works on pragmatism more than politics but sometimes when it is the time to convince the public to buy into a national scheme or idea, some political acumen never hurts.

Care shield Life has run into problems despite being "actuarial fair" because the government appears to be profiting from the scheme.

People see the government as a service provider to serve all Singaporeans equally. Also, they do not think that the government should be making a profit from any schemes that they provide to Singaporeans. So, they are not happy if they think this is being run as a 100% market driven thing. In any case, the Govt has the capacity to do this, without it being market driven, and still not come out negative because the past scheme showed that the insurers who ran the Elder shield collected $3 billion and paid out only a negligible amount in claims.

Women must pay 23% more in premiums than men for the compulsory disability insurance scheme and that should not be the case.

Contd: part 2; March 02, 2019 2:16 PM
Virgo49 said...: Part 2

I feel the government should make this scheme gender neutral for two reasons. First the Govt is not a private sector company and Govt should provide some of these services to the public at concessions. The Govt source of revenue for Care shield and CPF Life and other such scheme is not just through the collection of of premiums but also through the taxes Singaporeans pay and also from the returns of our sovereign wealth fund - these are all the people's resources.

So as a Govt some services should be provided at a subsidy because citizens are already contributing to Govt revenues in many other ways. There must be something called citizens' privilege and having a gender neutral Care shield and equal CPF Life pay out may be the right thing for the Govt to do. Furthermore, based on past records, the Govt is net positive and not negative in the past.

While urging the Govt to average the cost of premiums for both genders and charge them an equal rate,there should be more transparency regarding pricing of the scheme.

Show Singaporeans what the actual cost of coverage is and then decide to have a
permanent citizen's subsidy to be below the actual cost with women getting a higher subsidy.

OTHER POINTS TO CONSIDER:

You will notice that the proposed Care shield Life scheme is a crowd-funding scheme where the Singapore citizens are contributing but the Govt is not contributing to the Care shield Life and all the time, the Govt is so afraid that
there may not be enough funds in the Care shield Life to take care of disabled citizens. This is all wrong!

Less we forget....

The Govt is not a private company, out to make money. The Govt's function is to serve and look after its citizens. Hence the Govt must be involved and provide subsidy when required. So the Govt should "under-ride" Care shield Life scheme.It should subsidize when necessary, and guarantee the payment.

The criteria for pay out claims should be looked into. Already it was found that
the criteria for pay out c;aims for Elder shield was too stringent and many disabled citizens suffered because they did not get their claims. From past experience from Elder shield claims and pay outs, it was found that some disabled citizens were almost dying before they got their claims and hence they only got a few claims before they died ! Sometimes the disabled person died before the claim was approved ! The criteria for pay out should be re-assessed. For instance, being blind should be taken as one of the criteria to claim.

A good government should serve its citizens and have compassion for its citizen and have compassion for its citizens.

>> In welfare countries, u pay for other people in their old age.

When your turn in old age comes, other people will pay for you lah. Hopefully. <<

Most welfare cuntries have changed their pension systems from defined benefit (for e.g. you get $x automatically after age, say, 65) to defined contribution (you have a portion deducted from your pay throughout life --- like CPF), or a combination of both.

They are ALL moving toward self-funded retirement systems because they understand that "Young people pay for old people" system cannot work, and that borrowing and taxing just to fund the state pension system eventually will BANKRUPT the cuntry.

In other words, they are all adopting pension systems mirroring Singapore's CPF system. In Australia, it is called "superannuation" and it has evolved into a very flexible system. For e.g. you can "self manage" your own super (SMSF -- self managed super fund) and get another 5 people together to form your own "mini fund". You can imagine that having 6 people who are financially savvy together, pooling their retirement savings...that has the potential to make a lot of money! It is hard to cock up because the rules on how and what you invest is quite strict but still flexible. You can invest in equities, managed funds, term deposits, precious metals and even "exotics" like antiques and art.

My super is handled by fund managers who get me an average of just over 8%. I'm happy with that because I'm quite a lazy guy. However, my ex-wife and her brother (in their 60s) set up their own SMSF and have amassed around $5mill in rental property and hold nearly 2 mill in term deposits. The deflating Aussie property bubble has seen prices drop 30% in some areas so there could be some good value buys coming up. The rental market is still delivering nice returns.

Hopefully, the wise-heads at CPF Board will realise that although Singapore was first with govt-controlled self-funded retirement plans, there is scope for more "diversity" in investing for retirement.; March 02, 2019 2:25 PM

I call your bluff ... that $145K is for PROJECTED MAX returns, which in insurance industry is almost NEVER met.

I worked for 10 years in NTUC Income claims department, and I've never seen any life or endowment policy bought in the last 30 years being able to meet the projected amounts.

THEY ARE ALL LOWER!!!

BTW, do you know what is the presumed rate of return for $100K to $145K in 8 years??
Use Excel or financial calculator or scientific calculator and the answer is 4.75%.

YOU WILL NEVER, I REPEAT NEVER, EVER GET AS HIGH AS 4.75% RETURNS FOR 8-YEAR POLICY.

Compare with CPF Retirement Account --- 4% TO 6%.

After 8 years, your $100K will become $146,881 GUARANTEED.

S'pore govt already give you a system to play with & take advantage of. By minimising RA and maximising SA and OA, you:

1. Retain maximum control over your money.

2. Can withdraw as & when you like.

3. Continue to earn higher interests than any banks and FDs.

If you think PAP is going to confiscate all your CPF money, then you can always do INSTANT TRANSFER from OA and SA immediately to your local bank account. And then immediately transfer to overseas banks in safe & developed countries.

Otherwise if you think CPF still safe, then just continue to let the $$$$$$ rot in SA and OA and collecting the interests.

Haha, one fine day, you kena caught with your pants down and expose your arse then you know.

I had before played with their system and had benefited from it. That's was when they announced their CPF's Life Scheme for seniors.

A Bonus benefits of think 3K for those who opted to join in with minimum 20K in CPF;s Life.
I deposited 20K in her name.

My mother was already eighty plus and I thought no harm in putting in for her as this will be a short-term investments. Just monthly payouts till she goes to the WEST to see her maker. So, just for a year I had all my returns back plus plus interests and that 3K

So, thus I had extra 3K from them. Not easy to take 3 K from these Scholars you know.

You want to take advantage of their System. After this GE, when they had the Majority again and as I have said earlier within one Seating in Parliament, a Bill passed into Law to rule that No withdrawals allowed for any OA or SA or RA or R21, then you will cry.

AGC said...: Come on, let's face it.

Life in Singapore for the majority (60%) is still reasonably tolerable.

And for the top 10%, quite comfortable.

And for the pinnacle 1% extremely filthy rich pleasurable.

It adds up to 71%, isn't it? Give and take the margin of error of 5%, it is still 66%.

So, how can the PAP not continue to run (down/up) the country? How can you (masses) not be trampled upon? CPF is only one aspect of the "atrocious" treatments dished out of the PAP's Power House (of Lee). If you really can count, there are at least 20 more challenging circumstances that you (the masses) have to contend with.

In the mean time, Opposition parties are not really political parties. They are only the semblance of a political party. They are unable to form a new government to challenge and compete with the PAP - miles and miles apart. Not even close.

Dr Tan Cheng Bock may bring a little fanfare and intrigue into the equation. However .he is not a real maverick. He is too guarded and conservative. Moreover, he is only one man. His team comprises old, outdated, uninspiring people (good people but lack luster, cannot shine). Not impressive!

WP is on its way down and out soon. They say pride comes before downfall. This is what's happening to WP's Team of Blues, after winning Aljunied GRC.

How can a party with three "wise" lawyers get itself into legal problems and landed up in a prolonged legal battle in court? Lack of legal advice or too many cooks spoilt the soup?

SDP is trying very hard (for last 20 years?) to make a comeback from the self-inflicted loss of popular supports, since Dr Chee took over. No doubt it has improved over the years. But the torn in the party is also the rose itself - Dr Chee Soon Juan. Only leadership change can see the rise in popular supports back to the Chiam See Tong's glorious days again? Most probably, but not necessarily so. He deserves a second chance. No one should be condemned forever.

"Forever" is an idea which doesn't apply to mortals with a finite amount of time to live (TTL).

Any party, be they bad or good, only has to be there in your lifetime to either benefit or hinder your life's journey.

What has happened in the past cannot be undone. What happens in the future, no one can predict not control. What happens now and how we deal with it is what matters: some things you have direct control, other things you don't do you will have to be the one to make the choice and take the necessary actions to "adjust".

The "Return My CPF line" is useless rhetoric to move votes. So simple. The rich won't heck care. Cpf stuck till 65 is ok, it's just diversity of portfolio. The middle class who have other passive income, already knows that they cannot survive forever on their own cpf and would have adequate resilience, so they comfortable accept CPFLife, as a supplement to their regular cashflow. Only the really bottom percentile who mistakenly thought their CPF can see them through, (which is not possible in the first place), will be unhappy. Though it is fashionable to complain about CPF, secretly, I think more than 70% can live with it and won't even consider it as a reason to oust the Pap. On the contrary, just like a run on the bank, the more financial savvy may even fear an opposition govt can cause a run on CPF beyond its safe liquidity ratio resulting in disaster. After all it is financially prudent for the State NOT to hoard CPF money, but rather allow controlled investments beyond its real value, as in the way banks work. Credit Creation: Economics 101.

You said that if CPF is not allowed to buy flats how could people afford. In the 1960s, people buy flats from their own savings. Some use bank loans, which are repaid after say ten years of honest working. In other countries, people buy flats using the same model. However, Because of the pap subsequent policy of "generous" allocation of one's retirement funds to buy flats, and the evil lie, that 99 year flats will continue to have enhanced values indefinitely, it caused several decades of upward spiral of prices- unnaturally. This need not have happened if in the first place for example, the govt limited, say, the use of retirement funds to buy 99 yr properties, to just about 20%.
To put another way, it is dog chase tail problem. The retirement funds CANNOT BE EMPTIED OUT 80% TO INVEST IN DECLINING ASSETS. THE GOVT NOW REALIZE THE MISTAKE. BUT THE MISTAKE IS SO HUGE THAT Tweaking THE DRAWDOWN AGE OF WITHDRAWAL IS NOT GOING TO SAVE THE BOTTOM 30 PERCENTILE OF CITIZENS FROM POVERTY PERMANENTLY.

Trump was baffled, so he e-mailed it to the his aides, who had no clue either, so they sent it to the FBI.

No one could solve it at FBI, so it went to the CIA.

With no clue as to its meaning, FBI finally asked MSS (Ministry of State Security in China) for help.Within a few seconds MSS cabled back with this reply :

Anonymous said...: The 1961 Bt Ho Swee fire was probably some plot to fire up people's willingness to be relocated. Up till today, the official police & govt statement is "Unknown Cause". And very difficult for researchers to gain access to the official investigation documents which are all marked as "Top Secret" and kept under OSA.

Previously the British colonial govt, the David Marshall govt, the Lim Yew Hock govt, the initial PAP govt all had great difficulties in getting people to relocate from kumpungs to HDB. They always had to mobilise large numbers of police force whenever they did a relocation exercise. People will often protest, demonstrate, sit-down etc.

Even after losing their homes, 25% of the Bt Ho Swee residents (about 4000) didn't want to be relocated into HDB flats --- they rebuilt & stayed in nearby squatter home, attap houses etc.

Rich people & public donations collected about $18M (in todays dollars) for the 16,000 Bt Ho Swee victims.

PAP fucked the CPF when they allowed people to use CPF to buy resale HDB & private properties from 1986-1988.

Before that, CPF can only be used to buy cheap flats directly from HDB. And up till 1980, HDB based their flat pricing based purely on construction cost (didn't consider land price).

If PAP didn't change CPF to allow buying resale HDB and private properties, property prices in Singapore today will still be much affordable --- probably cheaper by 30%-50%.

Most other developed countries don't allow people to use their retirement money or pension money to buy properties --- they know their retirement will be MAJORLY FUCKED UP if they do so.; March 03, 2019 5:03 PM

Nowadays SPH not only losing Subscribers and have to merge and diversify their business still very stuck up with Regular subscribers.

Either you signed on with them on Credit Cards payments or with vendors that will deal with you in cash or otherwise.

I had a fraudulent charge to one of my CC and Bank advised to cancel it. Forgetting that SPH is also one of them in this card.

They send me a message that they unable to receive payment from the cancelled card.

So I gave them another card number to charge to my Subscription.

They send me a form to authorise and send to Bank for approval.I thought they can straightaway charge to new card as it is the same bank as approved for my old subscription.

I told them each time I signed, most times signature is irregular and very troublesome.Can invoice me monthly and I pay by interbank payment.

They said No, either by CC or go thru vendors.

Fed up as been subscribing for decades. Also plus E-Paper news.

So, no choice now vendors. Minus E-Paper News. They so stuck up cannot even invoice you with so many staff.

Yes, I really pitied those Vendors just earning a living and early mornings had to deliver before even Sunrise.

And Many many Chow Kar not so much monies just less than even $30.00 without E-Paper also Siam and Siam. Even more monies still have pay what. They also have to pay SPH.

My immediate neighbour wah even tortured the poor guy to make two or three trips b4 he pay.At one time even disputed that he already paid for that month.Asking the guy to show proof that he did not pay.

Wah lan, just Less than $30.00 plus delivery fee also wants to cheat.

Someore supposed to be Electrouted People staying at 800K 5-roomed resale flats. Gianpng indeed.

So many times, I saw the vendor sitting downstairs waiting for them to come home.Poor guy.Morning woke up at 3 to 4 and at night at 10 still up collect payment from these chow kars.

I made it a point end of last month first payment to meet his boss sorting the papers near my block to pay him.

I wanted to care of to delivery man but he refused as not allowed to collect cash.

Those so called Rich bastards and bitches are the worst kind of creatures.

See how they bashed their maids.

Need to cane and jail them.

I was between 8 to 10 years of age when the Big BHS's fires come to live with my first horror experiences.

At that time, I was at my GrandAunt's Boon Tiong Road old SITC 4 storey flat.

Bukit Ho Swee is just actoss the road between Kian Tian and now the TB Plaza.

All the squatter zinc and attap huts were all in flames.

At that time, that place is notorious for their gangsters as well as the Cheng Hoo Lans black hats.

Rumours with some eye witnesses saw one or two guys went into one of the huts at that time with kerosene cooking stoves and pots on cooking something and they went in and kicked them down.

These are their paid informers that are use for this Inferno.

They wanted to resettle them the easy way.

Think British Laws at that time if squatters were to stay for a certain years they have a right to own the land or ask for compensations.

So only devils who are involved knew about this and must have already brought the Secrets to their graves.

Now maybe still serving sentences in HELL.; March 03, 2019 5:56 PM
Ⓜatilah $ingapura⚠️ said...: I believe the 1961 Hari Raya fires at BK Ho Swee were "black ops" conducted by the PAP on a bunch of stinky squatters so that they could free the area up for "nation-building".

To make an omelet, you have to break a few eggs. Pragmatism was part of the PAP's playbook from the very beginning. Still, as a nation, we've done better than "ok".

I was only about 5-6 years old then. But I remember how shitty Singapore was, and now we're fucking spectacular. So maybe the
willfull burning to the ground of this shit bucket was necessary, at the time. After that, HDB activity "exploded".

Progress lah.; March 03, 2019 6:07 PM

You miss the point altogether. It is not buying HDB flats or resale flats. The problem started when some assholes said there were too much money in the CPF. So they decided to price the HDB flats according to affordability ie according to how much you have in your CPF. And there go your CPF savings and the problems facing many retirees with CPF saving not enough for retirement today.; March 03, 2019 7:58 PM

NOPE.

If they did that, then HDB prices will become same or even higher than condos. Will you want to use up all your CPF to buy a new HDB that is the same price as a condo? Maybe 1 or 2 will, but 1 million others not so stupid.

REMEMBER --- the fantastic rise of bungalow & condo prices in the late 1980s to today is caused by allowing CPF to be used.

IF PAP didn't change CPF rules, and CPF still cannot be used to buy private property or resale HDB, then the price increase of condos & bungalows will be very slow & steady --- like in the 1960s and 1970s.

This will help ordinary people, but is no good to business men, banks & property developers becoz they cannot earn big profits.; March 04, 2019 12:40 PM

You are Right On! These Vultures had frequent reports of how much the CPF's Dafts had in all their accounts.

So, wah, plenty, chia bay leow! By the way, each cohort year by year reaching 55 gonna make withdrawals soon. Can be a run on us as we are tied up with all their funds in Overseas/Local and Short and Long Terms Investments.

So, hello, better think of ideas how to make sure we can keep the funds in our hands or in our lands.

Bright sparks scholars with the then MND Ministers hatched their brillant plans. HDB Owners can USE their CPF's Funds to purchase Private Properties!!!

Wah, All the Sinkies were Elated!!! My God now can upgrade and beat the next door Bengs and my kins and relatives and friends.

Every CNY, as usual Chinese Kapoh, how your business, how your jobs, professions? Where now you stay? Your children have not married? Aiyo Why like That?? As though these are SINS.
Another year, they did not ask about married children anymore, because they had too many problems with their sons or daughters or father or mother-in-laws. Some even DIVORCED lest than a year of marriage.

Har? Wah now you stay Sixth Avenue? St Thomas Walk? Orchard? Green with Envy. Go home had big quarrels with spouse.

You useless lah, people have Condoms, Bungalows and you still stay HDB? Cheng Hoo Choo?

Lau Kueo, you know? So the Paranoia Box is opened and every Sinkies start rushing in and one up man ships.

See who is more capable. The Papies cronies, that is the Developers rubbing their hands with glee.

Same time also must chok chok a bit and announce that Singapore Properties will NEVER go down. No worries, Only Matland.

So, this is the Tsunami and Earthquake that took over Sinkieland.

Now after so many years and the poor Sinkies all dry dry with the Developers pockets Full Full, they said cannot withdraw at 55 and postphoned and have CPF Minimum Sums as we do not want you to be burdens to us. Also keep for Medisave and pay for your medicine and also lastly your own coffins.

Now New HDB Flat owners cannot buy private properties and even CANNOT have any Private Properties. Even Overseas, also cannot, means cannot. So, my dumb dumb PreWar house kaki now go and applied 2 roomed flexi flat as he bachelor go and declared that in Melaka, he is
one of the joint-tenant(owner)-in-commons of an apartment and condom.

HDB Girl got a shock, aiyo, when you tell me. You make me very busy you know. I have to let you have a dozen forms to declare and also sompah. Or Peh Som. Also, I tell you huh, you must sell or withdraw your name from your Matland Apartment and Condom six months after you have our keys, or else we repossed your flat and we chong kong all your monies. No mercy!
Understand or Not???

Next Scheme. Hello HDB Arty kats. Liu Tha Kuer. You Big Brother. Use your brains, use your brains like shouted by Phua Choo Kang.

Ok, now we conned the Dafts. We make the HDB designs better than the old ham kar chan lego blocks stale pigeon holes. We make them like Condos styles but also cannot beat the Private Developers, our Good Friends, Ahem Private Condom Styles.

Bay windows till roofs- wah like Condo designs but NO Balconies please. If built like Condos got balconies like even Matland Apartments and even those Public Poor Men Apartments, then our Developers friends will scold us for the HDB upgraders would want to buy our HDB better designed flats than their Condoms. Understand??

So, you see New Punggol HDB Pigeon Holes, which block got balconies?? Cannot, only Bay Windows. Look Nice only. Matland cheap cheap apartments even had balconies.

HDB Can do it but they don't want to. Same time also must conned the Dafts, hello new design you know so must pay PREMIUM Price. Fair what? But actually whats designs the Construction costs is about the same lah.

Also, must pay premium for land cost! Now we have SLA- Singapore Land Authority. HDB/MND must pay land costs to SLA so you also have to pay to us. These State Land are Assets to the State and Treasury.

Also, you know your flats near LRT/MRT, Central, Turban, oops sorry Urban, Suburban, etc all different prices you know. Convenience to you, you know, you suckers!

Also, high floors better view, so you choose high floors, you have to pay more. Simple Logic, Yes or No? No, you get out!

In between their meetings, all laughing with glee. We made Fools of them and they are too daft to understand.We all smarter and more shrewd than last time the old Ministers like GKS, LKS etc who had hearts for them.

Stupid of them, don't know how to make monies and retain monies out of them for our million $$$$$$$$ salaries and also the cheap funds for us to roll and build these flats for them on their monies and same time still charge them all sorts of nonsense for the monies.

Wah, piang, we made billions and tell them we subsidize them trillions. Every year lose monies you know.

Last time, GKS,LKS sold them the flats, everywhere, what floors all SAME price. So stupid of them. Don't know how to con them. No wonder LKS NO take home pays and GKS just few thousands a month.

How to have Mercedes for Grace Disgraceful to drive there in one piece but DON'T know how to park! By God, know how to drive but don't know how to park! How she passed ha??

So this is the Scenario of what's happened to our History of HDB Pigeon Holes Stories.

Anonymous said...: @Virgo,

You dunno harr?? --- about 20% of newer HDB flats now got balconies --- real balconies sticking out of the living room, exposed to sun & rain ... not like last time fake balcony part of living room with main door.

Many of these new balcony HDB in Punggol --- but small lar, wanna put chair in balcony also difficult, kindergarten chair maybe can ... want to make love on the balcony also dangerous, scarli fly down ... only Josie can lah.

WAAHH, your prewar kaki damn stupid haaarr!

You know how many ahneh-nehs & cheena-nas PRs all got bungalows back in their home countries, but sompah don't have & buy resale HDB?!?!?!

Buy resale HDB also must sell away all your other private properties, whether in SG or overseas.

If private property in S'pore they will know larr --- cannot bluff. But overseas?!? U don't say they also pak bodoh lah.; March 04, 2019 4:57 PM
Virgo49 said...: Hi Anon 4.47

You are absolutely right !

Matland would not give info to HDB even the FIC -Foreign Investments Council or Committee have the details.

You think Matland so free. If free also they won't disclose as they also want Sinkies to buy their Properties

This Kayu Friend of mine is a typical Kiasi, kiaso and Kia cheng hu Sinkies.

They want to penalise Foreigners but instead Sinkies dafts kena.

We scolded him like hell as he had put all our names and particulars in his somp par forms to the Registrar.

Luckily this regulation does not affect us as we brought our flats 40 years ago and waiting for LowLan Wong to SERs our blocks.
