My dear fellow Members and Readers out here, please do share my candid encounter calling up CHAS over the eligibility for myself and my wife for this CHAS Scheme…!!!
I spoke to one Miss Kasha with CHAS on 13 December 2013 at 1.45 pm and in order for her to decide whether I qualify for this CHAS Scheme, I told her all the truth in this manner:
1) Both my daughter (a single) and my wife are residing together with me and only my daughter is working and have a gross monthly income of about $5,000. We are all staying in a 4-Room HDB flat in Sembawang. Both myself and my wife have retired due to poor health..!!
2) My son who is married has 2 kids and they are residing at Fernvale HDB public housing and their combined monthly income is about $5,000 gross.
3) My son and his wife (my daughter-in-law) and the 2 kids (my 2 grandchildren) have their NRIC address registered using my place of residence at Sembawang but actually and physically they go back to Fernvale every night to sleep since this is their HDB flat they have bought to stay and for the reason:
(a) Since both my son and daughter-in-law are working, we as grandparents have taken on the role of helping them send the elder grandson to primary school everyday and to help take care of the granddaughter since she is only 2 months old.
(b) In order for both our grandchildren to be taken care by us and be sent to a nearby school in or around the Sembawang vicinity, my son and daughter-in-law ARE FORCED TO REGISTER their respective residential address in Sembawang even they are NOT PHYSICALLY STAYING TOGETHER WITH US…!!!
According to Miss Kasha of CHAS, WE ARE NOT ELIGIBLE OR EVEN QUALIFY TO APPLY FOR THIS CHAS because our household combined income exceeds the requirement limit…!!!
Obviously it shows that PAP has created this CHAS Scheme or Service simply for show to naive Singaporeans and outsiders that the PAP Government cares for their Citizens BUT ACTUALLY IT IS JUST FOR SHOW…!!!
With all these type of Restrictions and Red-Tapes placed across all the supportive documents that are required to be submitted, may we delve deep into the question – HOW MANY OF THOSE WHO ACTUALLY QUALIFY FOR THIS CHAS CARD ENDED UP NOT BEING ELIGIBLE..??
To conclude, if you people are going to trust the PAP, you are digging your own graves…!!!
