The recent collapsed of some Hong Kong flats, was a reminder that some preventive measure  were needed. Since many of our oldest HDB were built more than 40 years ago, using technology of 50 years old.
Could these oldest HDB given more priority in enbloc. HDB had been doing a good job all these years. Hope that HDB will look into these matters.
Hope to hear feedbacks or ideas on these issues.

Massive development are underway to transform Singapore oldest estate The Queenstown Estate into a top educational hub. The sleepy town used to be populated by senior citizens, had came a long way. Lots of efforts were put into rejuvenatING the area and turn it into a modern metropolis. Many younger generations and expats now were attracted to the area and it is bustling. Sheng Siong and koufu near the commonwealth MRT were crowded.


It had been 40 over years since the government first built it.  Now you can see westerners came to stay here, which before that they don't stay in HDB.
