As parent , my wish for my daughter wanting her happiness, healthy and blessings with love. No matter what is her decision to stay, or work and settle down, we would continue to respect and support. Just want her happy. Thank Irene for sharing. Lovely parents of yours………Wish them healthy and happy always. ❤️‍🔥

In the seventies and eighties, we as reservists, used the vehicles in the duck tours for amphibious assault excercises. Yes, Irene's father was right, they were military vehicles before.

This is just for reference purpose only. 1987 - I worked in Japanese company (2 years work permit), applied for Singapore PR, rejected. 1988 joined Seagate and got 3 years work permit. Applied for PR again, approved and got the brown card can stay in Singapore as long as my permit is valid. 1991 - joined Cisco auxiliary police. My officer told me to go to Singapore ICA. I got my blue ic. Changed to pink Ic in 1995. I think if you joined MNC that is based in Singapore, your chances will increase.

In the past, for numerous years, residents do not have a part in the paint color of the hdb flats. You can check with the older folks, eg 40 years and above, in S'pore. The option to select only began to start in recent years.

@@nntflow7058 as someone who had lived in both, Hong Kongers have to be careful what they wished for. Modern China modelled after LKY's Singapore, why do Hong Kongers think the Singapore model of governance suits them?

@nntflow7058 Год назад

@@shonest8489 As someone who sit in the Centre-Left spectrum of the political compass, I could confidently say that they failed if we look at the current situation in China. Housing is horrible in China, most apartments are privatized and people can't afford it no more, especially younger people these days. How come a capitalist countries like Norway, Singapore or Denmark have better social housing compared to a Communist country? Youth unemployment before and after Covid-19 is sitting at a very high level. Health care and pension funds are drying up due to corruptions and incompetence. Hence why the CCP try to Liberalized the Pension fund by creating private pension scheme last year. One of China's biggest problem is the fact that it refuses to adopt meritocracy and the fact that they are socially conservatives.

@@nntflow7058 housing numbers looks great in Singapore but one essentially lease from the government in their lifetime, impressive unemployment numbers because no aids will be coming from the government and homeless ppl get send to jail, proud in bilingualism and dialects are wiped off … devil are in the details, I don’t mean to put down Singapore, but I’m saying this is exactly what Hong Kongers are complaining about the current government, and they’re not even half as tough as current Singapore, matter of compatibility. The point is, if Hong Kong go the Singapore way, or if miraculously Hong Kong turns into Singapore overnight, it’ll be quite sad, coz Singapore is nice, but Hong Kong is fantastic.

@nntflow7058 Год назад

@@shonest8489 How did you think housing work in China? You think they allow Chinese people to own property? No, they leased them like they did in Singapore. Both Hong Kong and Singapore are more compatible with each other. The believe in Democracy, Meritocracy and Rule of law. Hong Kong is horrible right now. The economy is crumbling, housing are being bought off by people from Mainland China and many locals are being wiped out by the people from the mainland.

@audreychoong7323 Год назад

As a Singaporean who has lived in HK for decades, the major difference between Singapore & HK MRT / MTR is the quietness of passengers in the train (MRT) in Singapore compared to HK. Usually when you take the MTR in HK, there's people talking loudly on the phones or to his/ her friend (s) or people listening to radio/ music / voice messages on their phones, or playing games loudly on their phones. And, the children can be found playing in the MTR, doing monkey bars or climbing up on the seats, etc ... Such scenes or behaviours, you can hardly find in the MRT of Singapore. Similarly comparison for bus in Singapore & HK.

@areebachewa8318 Год назад

Show them the rental HDB flats in Tampines. It will blow their mind how our low income citizens have access to such flats without having to wait too long. Our government here really looks after the poor here.

@matthewong5469 Год назад

Thanks Irene for sharing. Your parents are funny and interesting.

@gavint8000 Год назад

some HDB flats are short (10 to 12 storey) because of height restriction for aeroplanes. Hougang, yishun, tampines. most tall like 20-40 stories can be found in west and central areas..

@yuki_sama Год назад

Toa Payoh and Clementi got a lot of tall HDB exceeding 30 storeys!

@andrewgoh9282 Год назад

Singapore HDB flat changes throughout the history of Singapore. I think in the early 60s to 70s, the most famous is 10 storey HDB flat. Shop houses come with 1 unit of living area at storey 2, there are unit in storey 3 to 4, mostly 3 bedroom. I think in the 80s, we have 20-22 storey HDB flat. Currently, from what I know there are few 40 storey HDB flats. Changes due to increase of population and limited land space.

@OnMusicSoon1 Год назад

your parents are thinking that if you got married in SG they may want to help you buy flat here, that's why they are always interested in the public housing. you should bring them past those new estates in Tampines where you stay, they look similar to the condos beside them.

Hi Irene, Sad to see them going back to Hong Kong but hope they will be back soon.

@yuki_sama Год назад

Some of the HDBs are shorter (1) older or (2) near an airport where planes take off so they can't build it too high! The taller HDBs that are further away are at places like Clementi and Toa Payoh. The rooftop that your parents were asking about at Duxton @ Pinnacle is a sky garden! Can see fireworks on New Year's day but limited to residents only. On normal days, I think u can pay a small sum to enter! The newer HDBs are quite pretty too, look similar to condo design haha. Residents get to vote for the colour of the flats every 5 years :)

@xiali7863 Год назад

Irene, Guess you have yet to visit Dawson Rd/Dawson Place at Queenstown (near Queenstown Station). There is few HDB DBSS flats at Dawson Rd/Dawson Place as impressive as Tanjong Pagar HDB DBSS Pinnacle. The flats were built next to the canal with canal connector leading to Clarke Quay. Some flat also has sky garden on high floor level and has a good view of Singapore too. No admission fee needed to go to the sky garden as long as we do not to create nuisance, no one will chase us away😂. Besides Dawson Place, nearby also have some impressive 2-yr old 40+ level HDB flats which were built to accommodate residents from 60-yr old enbloc flats at Tanglin Halt. Do find time to explore the west
