SINGAPORE — A condominium Management Corporation Strata Title (MCST) has reportedly proposed restricting "certain groups of people" from renting units and using common facilities, prompting residents to spend three hours debating exactly who these mysterious people might be.
When asked who exactly "those people" were, committee members repeatedly glanced around the room before lowering their voices and replying, "Cannot say one."
The committee stressed that the proposal was not discriminatory.
"We have nothing against them," declared Chairman Shih Teh Ler. "We simply believe the community would be stronger without them."
To ensure fairness, the MCST has proposed a comprehensive Tenant Vibes Assessment (TVA), where prospective tenants will be assessed on intangible qualities including aura, swimming pool energy, lift etiquette, and whether they "look like they might overuse the barbecue pit."
Residents warned that unrestricted access to facilities could fundamentally alter the character of the estate.
"I bought this condo because the gym is never crowded," said resident S.S. Tan. "If other residents start using it, where does it end?"
Property consultants defended the concerns.
"People pay a premium for exclusivity," explained one analyst. "If your condo is accessible to everyone, how will anyone know you've made it?"
At press time, the Mr. Shih whispered to reporters "We need a final solution to this problem. Going on for too long already."
