Well, the government also has to take part of the blame for the current lack of homes for people and the rising discontent of potential home owners.
They released 12,000 (or less) flats annually when the number of new citizens and new PRs coming into the country numbered 100,000 or more a year for the past few years.
Throw in newly wed couples (another couple of thousands) who want a home, there was simply not enough flats to go around, causing prices to keep rising due to the extremely limited supply.
These problems should never be so bad with ministers who are paid million dollar salaries to run the country and take care of its citizens.

The key point is what i said earlier that mosquitoes can also and do come from the public drains , and anywhere public that can contain little cavities of water.So, i do not disagree with you because that is not my key point that you are talking about that i want to talk about.

this url explains more my point.
The fact is mosquito was not a problem , at least to me. Now, even as 1st world nation, it IS a long term problem already. Unacceptable. There is no other choice to make other than what i already made up in my mind.
just because the gabrament doesn't do its job satisfactorily sometimes, it doesn't give you the right to neglect your own part..
just like the sins of others do not exornerate you of yours
