Honestly, HK's public housing is not comparable.
In SG, ~80% live in public housing and of which most own their own homes.
In HK, only ~15% live and own a public housing. 30% lives in rental public housing.
And their public housing is still small and expensive, and the chance to even buy...
There's public housing in SG if you're Singaporean and married.
If you're not choosy, you can definitely afford a home in Singapore (except for special circumstances like if you're handicapped and can't work etc).

I mean, I just posted a video of the founding PM having to learn and speak different languages to reach out to different groups in the 1960s because there is no lingua franca in Singapore back then. And the content of the video is precisely on how we are going to build a different multicultural...

Why is it a different story in theory and reality? You mean our votes are imaginary and doesn't exist in reality?
In the years LKY served as a political figure, did he not go around campaigning and canvassing for support? Did he learn different languages and dialects for the fun of it?
