Minister for National Development Mah Bow Tan announced in Parliament yesterday that the Government will double the number of projects selected for the Home Improvement Programme (HIP) as another major programme, the Lift Upgrading Programme (LUP), tails off.
Over the next five years, the Government will offer HIP to 60 per cent of eligible precincts remaining after this year's selection.
About 160,000 more households, including the elderly, will benefit from HIP.
Mr Sun Peng Kheang's Yishun flat was selected for the Home Improvement Programme. His toilets were renovated and a wash basin added, among other improvements.ORIGINAL SOURCE
