SingaporeâAt the Committee of Supply 2021 debate in Parliament on Thursday (Mar 4), Non-Constituency Member of Parliament Mr Leong Mun Wai raised the issue of the shortage of BTO (Build To Order) flats, which he said could become a serious problem for the country.
One indicator of this situation is the demand for rental units under the PPHS (Parenthood Provisional Housing Scheme), said Mr Leong, âwhich has risen to more than twelve times the available supply in February.â
He cited a statement from Minister Desmond Lee, in October 2020, who said in Parliament that the BTO supply in 2020 was increased to about 16,700 flats to meet the demand.
