Mr Lim bought his new flat for just $380,000 - a subsidised price for residents under the Selective Enbloc Redevelopment Scheme (Sers). His old flat had cost him about $165,000.

The Sers project rehouses residents from six old blocks near Holland Village in four new high-rise blocks in Holland Drive.

Yesterday, Mr Lim had words of advice from none other than former prime minister Lee Kuan Yew, who visited him in his flat in the early evening.

'He told me, don't sell. The price will go up,' Mr Lim told The Straits Times."
But he also said without Mah Bow Tan, our HDB prices will crash, didn't he?

See:
Don't cast protest vote over rising flat prices: MM
"But if Mr Mah loses to the opposition, he warned that Singaporeans better sell their flats fast as they would no longer be of any value."
