We must always read up on what’s happening in advanced property markets. For e.g, nearest to us would be Singapore. Assuming these advanced property markets are 5-10 years (or more) ahead of us, we could prepare for what’s coming. It seems that co-living trend is becoming more prominent there. I could not say it’s popular … Read moreCo-Living, getting ready for it here?

I am all for developments (responsibly) and I am all for connectivity (necessity). Without these two, nothing much happens and we do not need to talk about helping the B40 households for example.
