====================================================================================================================================================================
HDB promises to give every household affected by the HDB public rental rehousing project a sum of $2500 rehousing allowance, but we can only get it 2 months later??
Only after we have surrendered the old rental flat. By then I would have used up all my savings and start begging on the streets of Orchard Road in Singapore,
because I have used FAR TOO MUCH money moving house already, as you can see below.
