Why would anybody travel thousands of miles and relocate their families to move into an HDB, which is essentially a very clean, well maintained council flat.
HDB flats are not council flats of the sort that you refer to in UK. There is NO social stigma associated with living in an HDB unit.
Refer to the statistics I have provided.
If you are correct then between 80-90% of the population ought to be treated with a certain contempt because they live in HDB units.
YOU are the one equating HDB units with council houses / dirty peasants. Exactly the sort of sheep I refer to which does not want to mix with the goats.
