but it wasn't so obvious or wasn't so many 'doing' it :)

heck, when I arrived, I was looking high and low and most landlords had this clause "not more than 2 person per room .. " :)

Something doesn't make sense to me....it's so easy to trace if the owner hasn't registered with HDB once their tenant informs MOM of the change in address. No one really needs to be reporting this, so why isn't it being done automatically?

A chance for the landlords to act like adults instead of being lead around by the ear. It's already a nanny state, but it's time the baby's are weened. Plus, if they don't do it of their own accord, then the gahmen get to make more money when they finally whack 'em! :lol:
