Why are Mortgaging Servicing Ratios for ECs and income ceilings unchanged, despite growing cost? What about young couples that earn more than the BTO and EC income ceilings? What is the government doing to support them? Not much incentive to work hard and earn a higher wage earlier on. Populist Budget.

On one hand, encourages to have larger families with more incentives. Yet, less focus and assistance are given to 5 room flats, or those who plan to upgrade to larger units. Sizes of new flats are getting smaller. Studies should be made not solely based on flat sizes but also to include the number of family members living in a small flat. Example : A family of 3 living in a 4 room flat vs a family of 5 living in a 5 room flat, which should be getting more support in terms of U-save rebates ? Which unit will run higher in living expenses ?

Very disappointed that 5 room flats do not have u-save rebates. The G is very rich to give handouts but is very unfair.
