Yes I am quite disappointed with some posts that seems a little emotional over land acquisition policies.
However it appears there are unintended intention to link them to HDB apartment price which i do not think is appropriate.
I do standby that it has to be priced to market. And to bring the price down, the policies need to gear towards bringing the market price down for all property not just HDB. Using this logic, we can avoid the discussion on cost because the market has already determine the most competitive one.
However i need to reiterate that not meeting demand with supply is the main culprits in the issue today.
Is better to be oversupply than under imo. since housing is one of the single most detrimental to happiness and family life. I fail to understand why our dear policy makers can't see that.
