Humanist learning of Housing Management in Singapore

The problems of urban slums, especially in disaster prone areas and flood plains, arising from land management that have not been going well. Land as a commodity with a limited number of ever-increasing demand led to rising land prices from day to day.Increasingly high prices of land that is the cause of 29.89 million people in Indonesia who are under the poverty line is very limited access to land as a residence. Impact, there are many illegal land pengkavelingan by the lower social classes, especially in disaster prone areas and along the banks of the river that does not have clear ownership of land. In fact, these areas should serve as a water catchment area as a controller of environmental stability. In fact, several parties that have not been fortunate, often forced to use public land such as under bridges or fly over as a residence.Housing and Development BoardProblems of land use along the river today can be said to be more complex. Seizure of land not only occur among people who "can not", but also the seizure of large-scale developer.Indeed, the unique view along the river are considered to be an added value not found elsewhere. On the other hand, a lot of vacant land in the city center which is more worthy of a place to live but have not been utilized, and only a soft objects of land speculators. This indicates, that control land prices and land management in Indonesia has not run as it should.Slightly different from the ownership of land in Indonesia, the country neighbor or Malaysia and Singapore, the land is fully owned by the royal and state. Thus, the monarchy and the state has full control functions of land use. As for land ownership and fulfillment of public housing in Singapore organized by the HDB or Housing and Development Board.HDB was established in 1960, amid the housing crisis that many slums are found in the corners of the city in Singapore. Until now, the HDB has been able to facilitate 82% of the total population of 3.7 million people with 80% and 2% of property leases.Housing development is done with subsidies to residents who earn no more than EUR 8000. The more the number of rooms desired, the lower the subsidy granted. Background understanding of this policy, that the more number of rooms you want translated as the increasing purchasing power of a given population, the smaller the subsidy.Questioned on the provision of housing, ownership housing scheme HDB design tailored to the stages of the life of the population. A single, as a family, might still need a simple small houses on a lease with a partner. Then, when the couple have children, it takes a little house with a larger property. Furthermore, when their children grow up and have a family, a husband and wife will need a small house with access to better health facilities.Phase in human life that is taken into the calculation of housing needs in Singapore. Thus, the housing provided by HDB are classified into three classes that cater for single, family, and elderly citizens with the facilities have been adapted to the prospective owner.Call such as flat, which cater for families built close to the means of education such as elementary school and close to the office to help facilitate the activities of its owner, while the studio apartments reserved for elderly residents, facilitated by greater access to social communities, health facilities, and sports facilities such as jogging track.A wide range of HDB housing provided it is equipped with flat Resell facilities with high prices. This allows people to move house according to the needs and capabilities of each economy. Presumably, this approach is not adopted by Indonesia.In Indonesia, the housing built is adjusted for the family regardless of age and phase of the life of the population. Impact, the construction of supporting infrastructure and facilities to be extravagant, it is not optimal, and not to the point, because all kinds of facilities required to be present in every region of existing settlements.To that end, the strategy should be drawn about how the housing market in Indonesia follow up on it. Secondly it should be the government's main concern in getting decent housing for the residents, the management of land ownership in order to control the gap of land and housing prices are oriented to the needs of the population.
