    In the end this is what makes an non-mature estate a non-mature estate. Thats why removing this distinction officially won't change the prices difference between mature and non-mature estate which will still exist.
    Saying Punggol also faced same issues when it just started only shows MND have not learnt their lesson from Punggol when releasing Tengah.

    Punggol (2001) was almost desolated. However, it was resolved quickly. No compliant of on the built quality. Now, built quality of the newer Punggol (Northshore) is not ideal, too many defects. HDB should enforce on the contractors, builders adhere to the strict quality assessment.
    Tengah now. Is the CCS designed to withstand the heavy usage loadings? Is the pressure used for testing of the chilled water into the blower unit sufficient? Any isolation valves for the inlet and outlet for the chilled water line into the house?

    I signed for the aircon system as promoted by the sp there. On signing I have not signed my lease. With a number of issue reported . I wrote in but was told to pay a penalty. I was telling my house only ready in 2025 therefore they should be able to give an exceptional. But yet they still sent me a mail to send me the amount to pay. I think if they should solve their problem first.

    In late 1999, my family moved into Sengkang. Thankfully first batch of Sengkang residents were moving in since early 1998 so by late '99, the buses were running and Rivervale Plaza was up. First batch of Tengah residents probably had to endure longer wait time for their flats cos of delay due to covid. Probably by end 2025, Tengah should have more amenities.

    And why don't tell the truth as to why chill water system does not function well in such residential setting vs in a commercial setting?
    If the resident know the truth, everyone who signed for the system would back out!

    Tengah new town should have better insulation and estate ventilation design. We could use double layer tempered glass heat insulation. Add humidity control climate system.
    (Central Chilled Water system is different Design model and is used mostly I commercial settings)
    As for logistics, new Greenfield sites especially a 80% pedestrian society is the URGENT NEED for Bus, Mini Bus logistic system.
    As for commercial, pre planning is needed. How you manage opening of shops, market and residence.
    How come after years and years experience, we still face this puerile issue in the South City.

    Opposition parties campaigning the Tengah district in the upcoming GE should promise to make HDB more accountable and liable for damages suffered by Tengah residents. New laws can be put in place to make it easier for Tengah residents to sue HDB under a "class action" suit and seek damages. Tengah residents should also collectively vote for more opposition party members into Parliament in order to get more representation. Do not trust PAP. Do not vote PAP.

    TLDR - "If you do not have the infrastructure to support the people living there yet, then do let the people move in yet, right?" - People vying for keys fast etc are excuses. Try saying that at work when your quality of work is called out bad, let alone a govt body, who is expected to provide quality flats. If there is further delay, i think people are reasonable to wait to not get sub-standard flats unlike now

    Maybe some top level head need to be roll then the top level will wake up their idea and take it seriously.
    Is NOT acceptable to have this type of issue !!! HDB has build so many New Towns already, where are all those experience gained to be implemented !!!
    In the 80s, & 90s, the new residents moving in without the amenities have to suffer the shortfall with nowhere to rise the issue!!!
    But now days, with social media, the issues will be made known.
    Don't use COVID issue to divert the lack of efficiency.
    Or are we going into the PRC type of building construction method ? Do the simplest/cheapest first, any complains, slowly resolve or avoid it or force the owner to accept it.

    Full of excuses! Put all the blames to the pandemic, blaming Singaporean have high expectations. But who gives the major controls? Is HDB right? What is the inspection or SOP like from subcon and HDB before handover the key to home owners?
    Hdb response slowly with all major complaints from residents, subcontractors were extremely late or even MIA for ratifications appointments! Home owners have to bare with all stress and hassles for buying a new home from HDB with a low standard and live in a deserted area.

If the largest stakeholder (assumption) is HDB, then TAKE CHARGE !!! This is public housing, not the money greedy private enterprises providing shady condos and landed houses. Almost 60 years of public housing experience comes down to, we didn't know etc, yet all these were already experienced in Punggol. Be clear how the grouping and taskings of other agencies are keeping up with the various deadlines, and be more forthcoming in dealing with enthusiastic residents, with accurate information than just trying to please them with early acceptance (oh, the government wanted to ...). C'mon, things are not even properly tested and certified, both inside and outside the home units, yet cleared for people to move in.

    The aircon system is a absolute disaster not suitable for HDB. After decades of launching new towns, the HDB is still clueless about the whats and hows etc. It indicates a serious failure in its leadership together with MND. Maybe the rookies are placed in charge, therefore the lack of co-ordination with the various agencies involved, or the cynical conclusion that they simply don’t care because they don’t live in the HDB towns to experience any of the problems. Let the problems continue to roll and snowball over, we’ll get some more noises from the residents all over the country. To place the responsibility on someone else is empty coconut as suggested below

    And very realistic, all these Bengali worker build house have poor work ethic.
