A recent article on TodayOnline’s “The Big Read: The last Ubinites — a short hop, and a world away” gives a snapshot of life on the idyllic kampong. One of the last haven from the bustling metropolis mainland, residents of Pulau Ubin enjoy the peace, quiet and vast nature the island offers.
For one family however, the need to move to the mainland seems pressing. Mdm Ong Siew Fong, the island’s temple guardian, lives on the island with her husband and daughter, both handicapped and in wheelchairs. Every so often, Mdm Ong makes the bumboat ride with her domestic helper and husband to Singapore mainland for the husband’s medical appointments. They often have to wait for high tides when it is possible to move the husband’s wheelchair onto the boat.
As it is getting harder for them on the bumboat rides, the family tried applying for a HDB flat. After paying a deposit of $1,000, their application was rejected because the family income was too low, at $1,300. As a result, their hard earned savings that formed the deposit was forfeited.
Wasn’t it not too long ago that a prominent Minister of Singapore said Singaporeans who earn $1,000 could afford a HDB flat? If that is so, why has HDB defied the Minister’s logic and turned down the family’s application? Is there coordination between what Ministers say and how Ministries act or was the Minister’s calculation a dud?
Moreover, if HDB thinks the family is too poor to afford a flat, why further burden them by forfeiting their deposit? $1000 is a lot of money, you can afford a flat with this amount, you know?
