00:00It's not easy to find a good place to live in a country with a lot of land and money in Singapore.
00:07I believe that friends who used to or are working on the other side of the country will feel the same way.
00:12This has made many house owners see the opportunity.
00:15In order to receive more tenants, some house owners use every corner of the house as much as possible.
00:25A few days ago, we reported that someone rented the balcony of the house as a room and did not provide air conditioning.
00:33When this news came out, it caused a lot of online criticism, saying that the landlord did not treat the tenant as a person.
00:42Recently, another house owner made a strange move, which also ignited the anger of netizens.
00:48Just yesterday, social media circulated a notice to rent a single room.
00:53It says that there is no tenant cohabitation, no intermediary fee, complete home appliances, gym, swimming pool, etc.
01:03The landlord also allows tenants to stay overnight and take visitors home.
01:08Not only that, the post also described that the rental unit is a bus stop near the subway.
01:13There are supermarkets and tea shops within 2 minutes of walking.
01:16Life is very convenient.
01:18Does everyone think this is a good house to rent?
01:24But after looking at the photos in the room, you may have different ideas.
01:28So let's take a look at the photos.
01:31That's right. As you can see, this room is filled with a folding single bed as soon as it opens.
01:39If you want to put a desk, wardrobe, luggage, etc.
01:43Sorry, there is no more space.
01:45Whether you want to eat, work, or sleep in the room, you can only solve it on the bed.
01:51Clothes can only be stuffed into the bed.
01:54If you insist on talking about the advantages, the only thing that is better than the balcony room is that it has air conditioning.
02:01After seeing the photos, some netizens wonder if the landlord has directly rented the air-conditioning unit as a room.
02:10As a small country, in order to improve the national military defense capability,
02:16the Singapore government built a public air-conditioning unit from the subway station to the bottom of the house,
02:21then to the school, government building, etc.
02:25In 1997, the Singapore government stipulated that all new government buildings and private residential areas
02:31must have a public air-conditioning unit built in the unit or on the floor,
02:37so that people can evacuate at home when they are in an emergency.
02:41It can be said that this is a very unique practice all over the world.
02:45However, this was originally a measure to promote national security,
02:49but now it has become a means for some landlords to make money.
02:54Speaking of this air-conditioning unit,
02:56don't think that it doesn't even have much space to walk.
03:00The relevant posts were uploaded to the Internet,
03:02and it took a day to put a label on it and rent it out.
03:06You should be very curious about how much rent the landlord requires for such a room.
03:11According to the rental notice, the monthly rent is 750 CNY,
03:16which is about 2,600 CNY, according to the current exchange rate.
03:202,600 CNY in Malaysia,
03:22in fact, you can already afford a house that is not very expensive.
03:27So some netizens joked that 2,600 CNY is really expensive,
03:31but it's good to live in an air-conditioning unit.
03:34This can be said to be the highest level of security on the ground.
03:38Some netizens also said that in order to make money without any means,
03:42such a small room to live in is basically a destruction of humanity.
03:47However, some netizens also mentioned that the air-conditioning unit,
03:50as the name implies, was set up to deal with war or emergency situations.
03:54And such a room can't be reported to the address.
03:58The landlord used the air-conditioning unit as a rental room,
04:01which may violate some regulations of the authorities.
04:04On this point,
04:05the Singapore Real Estate Service Group's main executive officer,
04:08Lin Yong-Fu,
04:09emphasized when he was interviewed by the media that
04:13only bedrooms meet the conditions for renting.
04:15Whether the relevant unit is the government's ancestral house or a private property,
04:19installing air-conditioning in the air-conditioning unit may be a violation.
04:23He also reminded the public that the rent in Singapore is increasing day by day.
04:26Be sure to pay more attention when looking for a house on an informal platform,
04:29especially foreigners who are not familiar with the local rental regulations
04:32when working in Singapore.
04:34Don't be greedy for small profits.
04:36If you risk renting a house that does not meet the specifications,
04:39it is very likely to cause trouble.
