HDB survey shows strong support for SERS

SINGAPORE- The Housing and Development Board's Selective says its En Bloc Redevelopment Scheme (SERS) has found continued strong support among residents. In its latest 2009 survey, close to 95 per cent of some 949 households surveyed expressed support for SERS. This is the highest level of support since HDB started the bi-annual survey in 2001.
The survey showed that residents are happy that SERS allows them to continue living in the same estate close to familiar neighbours. Almost all the households surveyed expressed a strong sense of belonging to their community.
One in five households also indicated that their family life had improved, attributing it to a new spacious flat and a better living environment.
The number of households who find their new flats value for money also increased from 89 per cent in the 2007 survey to 97 per cent in the latest survey.
