One kind of living
About 80%-90% of the population here in Singapore live in HDBs. The government had made it a law that there has to be a certain ratio of different races living in an HDB block to avoid "one-race-only" areas (e.g. only Chinese living there) and to maintain racial harmony. HDBs are being constantly improved and upgraded, sometimes older ones (e.g. from the 80s) are being torn down and a new HDB is built.
