1 The Re-development of Public Housing Estates in Singapore Satoshi* The aim of this paper is to examine the re-development of public housing estates in Singapore and to understand the problems of a matured society in which development has been completed. Public housing estates house of Singapore s population. Their development played a significant role after Singaporean independence and continues to play an important role in maintaining the social order. In the last twenty years, their re-development has become very important, and this topic has not yet been examined. There are three stages in the process of re-development. In the first stage, rental flats were targeted as imperfect and made way for purchased flats. In the second stage, purchased flats were targeted for re-development. However, because these purchased flats were considered perfect they could not be demolished and were instead upgraded according to residents will. In the third, and most crucial, stage, purchased flats have begun to be demolished. It may seem paradoxical, but the destruction of purchased flats is necessary for public housing estates to remain an influential institution in maintaining Singapore s social order. Their demolition makes residents go back to the pre-development stage of public housing when houses were demolished to develop housing estates. This last stage will determine whether the re-development of the public housing estates will succeed.
