Current affairs perspective

Singapore's house area and price have always been envious of Hong Kong people. It is often a topic that the public talks, and it is also an example of policy discussion. It points out how to be unbearable in Hong Kong's housing policies.

In addition to the high property prices in Hong Kong, in addition to the high property prices, the Hong Kong Government uses the free market as an excuse to release the sale.Full of market.On the other hand, the Hong Kong Government has adopted inhumane pressure measures in public housing policies, and Hong Kong people cannot live in peace.

The author first tried to use Singapore as a metaphor, explaining how crazy Hong Kong's property prices were high.Similar to the HDB houses in the mature communities in the middle of the Central District in Dantan Boge, Central Balu, Wujishi, etc., the price in Hong Kong is 40,000 Hong Kong dollars per square meter (about S $ 7042);Daba kiln, Jinwen Tai, and Hongmao Bridge, the price per square meter in Hong Kong is priced at HK $ 25,000 to HK $ 30,000 (about S $ 4402 to S $ 5282), depending on the age and area of the building;Far at Woodlands, Samban, or Jurong West, the price per square meter in Hong Kong is at least HK $ 16,000 (about S $ 2817).

Based on the current two -bedroom housing calculation of the minimum area of about 36 square meters, the property price is at least 620,000 Hong Kong dollars (about S $ 109,155).According to the 2017 household income from the Hong Kong Government Statistics Department, the median household income was HK $ 27,500 (about S $ 4842), it is clear that Hong Kong people have no power to buy a property at all.

In order to cooperate with market purchasing power, real estate developers in Hong Kong have reduced the unit area.The private residential area that has been completed in recent years is generally only about 20 square meters to 30 square meters of nano buildings.This is compared to at least 85 square meters in the area of the Singapore Urban Reconstruction Bureau, which is at least 85 square meters.

The emergence of nano buildings, in addition to the factors of the real estate market, the policy of public housing in Hong Kong, can also be said to be the cause of the cause.First of all, the area of the houses for rental for the rental of the Housing Committee of the Hong Kong Government is only about 36 square meters.In addition, the per capita living area standards set by the Housing Committee are only about 13 square meters, and only half of the per capita residential area of Singapore House residents is half of 27.6 square meters.

Hong Kong people want to relocate to a larger unit, and the number of residents will increase, and the per capita residence area will fall to less than 5.5 square meters before they can apply. On the contrary, the number of residents has decreased if the numberThe per capita residential area rises to 25 square meters or more, and the Hong Kong Housing Commission will issue an forced order.

Why the government instruction document replaced the actual name for the relocation order is the government instruction document, because the government does not bother to pay attention to the residents, but only requires the residents to relocate to a smaller unit.qualifications.

After her mother died in 2005, the author personally experienced such unmanned policy implementation, and almost fell to the streets of sleep.The living conditions of public housing in Hong Kong are unreasonable and forced residents. In this way, private real estate developers can cooperate with the market environment and build an apartment with a smaller and smaller area.

In addition, Hong Kong applied for the income limit requirements for public housing. The monthly income limit of the single person was HK $ 1540, and the two families were HK $ 17,600.However, refer to the three data of the three data -the personal income of the Hong Kong Government Statistics Department is HK $ 18,000; the median salary of the statistical report of the Labor Department is 68 Hong Kong dollars, which is equivalent to about HK $ 14,000 a monthly salary;The monthly salary is about HK $ 13,000.In this way, general migrant workers are not qualified to apply for public housing at all, and they can only go to the private residential market to find a place to live.

However, the property prices are very high. Generally, Hong Kong people are unable to buy business at all and can only rent a house.However, the market factors that are linked to property prices can only live in a kitchen toilet. It only gets about ten square meters and currently rents at least 6,000 Hong Kong dollars.And because the Hong Kong Government has canceled the rent control, most private owners will only sign a one -year lease with tenants to increase their leases each year.As a result, most Hong Kong people who failed to buy a home and could not stay in the public house moved their households every year, becoming a modern nomadic nation.

Hong Kong's housing problem is the core source of resentment in Hong Kong society.In addition, officials of Hong Kong Government often shouted to study from Singapore, so whenever there is news information about housing housing in Singapore, Hong Kong people are burning in the Hong Kong government.No wonder Hong Kong people are always dissatisfied with governance.
