SINGAPORE

The latest changes to the law, tabled yesterday in Parliament, include more stringent penalties and come at a time when residential property prices have risen significantly while some fines and jail terms have been the same since 1974.

The newest requirement is for Singaporeans who give up their citizenship and foreigners who give up their permanent residency to dispose of their landed property within two years.

Failure to do so will result in a fine of up to $20,000 and/or a three-year jail term. In addition, foreigners who inherit landed property have to sell it within five years instead of the current 10 years.

[PENALTY  should  be  either CONFISCATION  or  FORCED  SALE which are  mOst  effective  than  fines and jail]

These moves are to reinforce the benefits of citizenship and PR status, said property analysts such as Suntec Chesterton International research and consultancy director Colin Tan.

When the Act was introduced in 1973 — the penalties were revised a year later — foreigners had to be permanent residents and get approval from the government to buy landed property, including strata-landed housing and vacant residential land.

They can buy only one landed home for owner-occupation, not for rental, and must dispose of their existing restricted property before acquiring a new one.

They are not allowed to sell the property within three years from the date of purchase or from the date of the Temporary Occupation Permit.

The amendments in 2006 increased the penalty for converted foreign companies which own restricted properties without approval and citizens who hold such homes as nominees for foreigners.

If the new Bill is passed, those found breaching these rules will be fined up to $200,000, up from $5,000 previously, and a further fine of $2,000 each day they remain non-compliant.

Other penalties include a fine of up to $10,000 or three times the rental income, whichever is higher, for unauthorised rental. The Controller of Residential Property also gets powers to lodge a caveat to prevent unauthorised sales.

SLP International’s executive director of research and consultancy Nicholas Mak said the move would close a “loophole” for foreigners who buy landed property after becoming citizens or PRs and then give up their residency status after a few years.

MediaCorp understands there have been three to four offences of unauthorised property sale in the last two years. Of the 70,000 landed homes, PRs own 3 to 4 per cent.

Another change will affect foreign developers — defined as any company with foreign directors or any amount of foreign ownership, including listed companies since foreigners can buy the shares — which will include firms such as Keppel Land and CapitaLand.

The Government will charge a fee if foreign developers extend the fiveyear window to complete residential developments after acquiring the land, or take more than two years to sell all units from the date of TOP. MediaCorp understands the Government can make exceptions on a caseby-case basis, such as during a recession. Other Bills introduced in Parliament yesterday include the Maintenance of Parents (Amendment) Bill, which proposes mandatory conciliation sessions and tribunal access to necessary government records and documents, the Industrial Relations (Amendment) Bill, which proposes a new mediation scheme for some disputes involving employees who are managers and executives, and the Civil Defence (Amendment) Bill, which will provide for officers to serve outside of Singapore.— Foreign ownership of landed homes here is set to be tightened, four years after the Residential Property Act was last revised.

From next month, sellers of Housing and Development Board (HDB) flats will have to observe a seven-day cooling-off period before they can grant an Option-to-Purchase (OTP) to the buyers, the HDB said yesterday.

The HDB said the measure was part of regular reviews to better protect the interests of sellers and buyers.

The cooling-off period starts after sellers complete a resale checklist, which has to be submitted via the HDB website.

Introduced two years ago, the checklist will be enhanced to require sellers to state their next housing arrangement, said the HDB.

If the sellers intend to buy another flat, they have to work out their estimated sales proceed of their current flat, and submit a financial plan for their next flat purchase.

Buyers of resale flats, acting with or without agents, will also be required to complete and submit the checklist.

Previously, sellers or buyers acting without agents were encouraged, butnot required, to go through a separate checklist — which need not be submitted to the HDB. Mustafa Shafawi

    MERITOCRACY  IDEOLOGY 

    According to the ideology of the American Dream, America is the land of limitless opportunity in which individuals can go as far as their own merit takes them.

    According to this ideology, you get out of the system what you put into it.

    Getting ahead is ostensibly based on individual merit, which is generally viewed as a combination of factors including innate abilities, working hard, having the right attitude, and having high moral character and integrity.

    Americans not only tend to think that is how the system should work, but most Americans also think that is how the system does work (Huber and Form 1973, Kluegel and Smith 1986, Ladd 1994).

    Corroded valve downed Apache

    Fault went undetected because helicopter’s computers did not generate any error messages

    Teo Xuanwei

    xuanwei@mediacorp.com.sg

    SINGAPORE

    The emergency landing, which sent the helicopter’s tail flying about 50m away, took the Ministry of Defence (Mindef) by surprise, said Defence Minister Teo Chee Hean, who revealed in Parliament yesterday the findings of the investigation into the incident.

    “Prior to this, there were no reported incidents of the same nature,” said Mr Teo, who is also Deputy Prime Minister.

    No one was injured in the emergency landing. Mr Teo praised the pilots for the way in which they handled the situation.

    “The pilots, in my assessment, chose [Did pilots have a CHOICE    ? ? ? ?

    What were the Other CHOICES    ? ? ? ?]

    the place well, given the limited time that they had,” said Mr Teo, who noted that the emergency landing site was about 400m away from the nearest building.

    [This time LUCKY does not equal to NEXT TIME LUCKY and EVERY TIME LUCKY     ? ? ? ?]

    Several Members of Parliament had tabled questions on the incident, including its cause and what measures Mindef would take to prevent such episodes from happening again.

    With investigations complete, Mr Teo said the corrosion of the anti-ice start bleed valve (AISBV) — which caused airflow into the engine to be disrupted — resulted in the breakdown.

    It went undetected because the chopper’s computers did not generate any error messages, said Mr Teo.

    [WHAT if computers fail AGAIN in future detection    ? ? ? ?]

    And although the aircraft were regularly maintained, the Republic of Singapore Air Force’s maintenance crew did not notice the faulty part because it was not part of the manufacturer’s maintenance procedure to open up the AISBV for checks.

    It was only when the engines were sent to the manufacturer Boeing for a full tear-down and inspection that the fault was discovered, said Mr Teo.

    [that is to say, SAF will NEVER detect such corrosion during own inspection    ? ? ? ?]

    Responding to Ang Mo Kio GRC MP Lee Bee Wah’s question on how old the helicopter in question was, Mr Teo would only say that before this incident, the RSAF had flown the Apache for more than 28,000 hours over eight years without any incidents.

    The RSAF will replace the AISBV in all its Apaches with new ones or those recertified by Boeing, and test them thoroughly before clearing the Apaches for flying, he added.

    It was also working with Boeing to see whether the maintenance procedures needed to be modified to prevent a repeat incident.

    Training flights of the Apache and SeaHawk helicopters, which had been grounded, will progressively resume this week, he said.

    He also assured the House that the RSAF maintained high safety standards and as part of all pre-flight procedures, pilots were briefed on the various open spaces identified as potential emergency landing sites.

    During an emergency, the pilots would try

    [DON'T TRY TRY  - JUST  DO  IT] 

    to fly back to the nearest airbase immediately.

    If not, they would attempt a safe landing at the nearest open space away from populated areas.

    He said: “Our pilots are trained to ensure the safety of the public

    [1st  STEP  in this SAFETY is to ENSURE FITNESS  of  the HELICOPTER    ? ? ? ?  ]

    before making a decision to land in any of these open spaces, and will forego such a landing, even at risk to themselves, if there is a danger to population.”

    [mOst  ENSURED  PROTOCOL is  to  BAN  LANDING IN PUBLIC]

    [Is  PUBLIC LANDING  a  BREACH  of  INTERNAL SECURITY    ? ? ? ?]— A corroded component had caused both engines of an Apache attack helicopter to suddenly shut down — forcing it to land in an open field in Woodlands last month (picture).

    After Mas Selamat’s escape, a new regime for detainees

    Zul Othman

    zul@mediacorp.com.sg

    SINGAPORE

    Classified under the red category, the former Jemaah Islamiyah leader is “heavily shackled whenever he needs to be moved out of his cell and will remain securely cuffed in the interview room”, Deputy Prime Minister Wong Kan Seng said yesterday in reply to questions from Members of Parliament.

    Specifically for Mas Selamat, a larger Gurkha security escort team has also been put in place “to ensure his secure movement”, said Mr Wong.

    Recaptured in Malaysia in May last year after more than a year on the run — Mas Selamat was handed back to Singapore last month by the Malaysian authorities.

    It was Mas Selamat’s escape that led to the new regime whereby detainees come under three risk categories and are given different kinds of security assessment and privileges accordingly.

    [Did Mas Selamat's escape make a MERITOCRATIC  contribution to Singapore's  Prison Security    ? ? ? ?]

    [Yet this NEW  REGIME  sounded so  lame and childish like a game   ? ? ? ?]

    With investigations in progress, some parts of his escape, such as how he evaded the manhunt or made his way to Malaysia, are still being determined.

    “In this connection, Mas Selamat has not given a completely reliable account,” said Mr Wong, who is also the Home Affairs Minister.

    What the detainee has disclosed about breaking out of Whitley Road Detention Centre “hasn’t been very much more than what he has revealed to the Malaysian authorities” and is “essentially consistent with the findings of the Committee of Inquiry (COI) which have been reported and made public”, Mr Wong added.

    In the report released on April 21, 2008, the COI concluded that an unsecured window in a toilet cubicle gave Mas Selamat the opportunity to bolt from his captors.

    “He began a routine to close the door of that toilet cubicle and turn on the tap in the cubicle on his next visits,” said Mr Wong, “He was trying to get the guards used to this routine during his family visits.

    He also started hanging his pants over the top of the cubicle door, so as to deceive the guards into thinking that ... he was still inside the cubicle.”

    The day he escaped, he claimed “he had put on three layers of clothing”, Mr Wong said.

    Asked by Hougang MP Low Thia Khiang about the lessons learnt from the escape, Mr Wong said that besides tighter procedural measures, “significant physical works were carried out to address the key infrastructural weaknesses” found at WRDC in 2008.

    Both the security procedures and the infrastructural measures have been audited by the Prisons Department, which will conduct inspections annually.

    The new purpose-built detention centre at Changi Prisons Complex is expected to be completed in four to five years.

    In reply to Holland-Bukit Timah MP Christopher de Souza’s question about whether Singapore is now safer with Mas Selamat back in detention, Mr Wong noted that in Indonesia, terrorism activities have not stopped even with the deaths of major terrorist leaders.

    “Singapore’s security cannot be divorced from the security situation in our region. We’re an open economy and society.

    The reality is the current terrorism activities there have not declined,” said Mr Wong.— Now that he is back, Mas Selamat Kastari (picture) is being detained at the highest risk level under a revised regime for detainees.

    Clean Up treatment of cleaners

    Letter from Jessie Chong

    I AM writing about the treatment that my dad encountered and I hope companies out there can review and improve the working conditions for cleaners.



     

    My dad, a senior citizen, got a job two weeks ago as a cleaner at a school.

    [Is school  MERITOCRATIC    ? ? ? ?]

    He was supposed to start work at 8.30am and promised a salary of about $800. After two days, he was told to start at 7am to clean the toilets before the students and teachers arrived and his pay was reduced to $650.

    Subsequently, he was told to report to work by 6am to sweep the car park.

    The MRT service starts only at 5.28am and the earliest bus service is around then.

    There was no way he could arrive at work on time and the cost of taking a taxi — which we doubted his company would reimburse — would far exceed his salary.

    My dad had no choice but to quit.

     




     

    Without losing heart, he found another position as a cleaner at a five-star hotel.

    [Is a 5-STAR hotel  MERITOCRATIC    ? ? ? ?]

    The job interviewers said they did not have any black work trousers in his size (large). So, he went out and bought two pairs — only to be told the trousers should actually be blue. He had to buy new ones, spending $200 in all before even starting work. And when he reported for work?

    He was told uniforms would be provided.

    After a quick orientation, my dad was told to clean the BBQ area. As it was drizzling, he asked if he could do indoor cleaning first but was turned down. Without a raincoat or umbrella, he and another worker had to sweep the wet floor.

    He later felt unwell and said he could not continue working.

    Are these the sort of working conditions cleaners should endure?

    HDB unable to allow exemptions for those who inherit overseas properties: Mah

    HDB unable to allow exemptions for those who inherit overseas properties: Mah

    HDB flats



    SINGAPORE : The Housing and Development Board (HDB) is unable to allow subsidised flat owners from owning overseas properties, even if they are inherited.

    National Development Minister Mah Bow Tan said this in Parliament on Monday in response to a question from MP Lee Bee Wah, who asked whether HDB will allow exemptions to those who inherit foreign properties out of bequests.

    "HDB is unable to allow exemptions for those who inherited these overseas properties as a general policy. However, I will ask HDB to look into the circumstances of special cases on appeal," said Mr Mah.

    Mr Mah said the ministry has received a few hundred appeals from Permanent Residents (PRs) on this issue.

    When asked how many of the appeals have been successful, Mr Mah said HDB is in the process of assessing them.

    Under the current policy, HDB flat buyers are not allowed to own local or overseas private properties concurrently, within the Minimum Occupation Period.

    From end August this year, the same rule also applies to buyers of non—subsidised flats.

    Mr Mah said this is to ensure that those who can afford private properties anywhere do not compete for limited public housing subsidies.

    [Eliminating STRONG competition from  JB Iskandar    ? ? ? ?]

    He added that HDB flat buyers are required to declare any interest or ownership in private property, local or overseas.

    Mr Mah also said that HDB conducts spot—checks locally and overseas.

    The penalty for false declarations is a fine of up to S$5,000 or a jail term of up to six months, or both. — CNA /ls
