HDB to extend Parenthood Provisional Housing Scheme until December

Eligible families will receive $300 per month on a reimbursement basis.

The Housing Development Board (HDB) will extend the Parenthood Provisional Housing Scheme (PPHS) voucher by six months until 31 December 2025.

HDB aims to support families renting from the open market whilst awaiting the completion of their new flats.

Eligible families will receive $300 per month on a reimbursement basis to defray rental costs during the support period. About 200 households will benefit from the extension.

To qualify, families must have booked an uncompleted flat from HDB’s sales exercises and have a household income of $7,000 and below.

With the ramp-up in PPHS supply to about 4,000 units by end-2025, the application rate for PPHS flats has declined significantly, to around three from over 20 in 2021.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
