The "Policy Address" proposes to build 30,000 simple public housing units to alleviate housing problems such as subdivided flats.

The Housing Bureau arranged for the media to visit a demonstration unit in Kai Tak today (30th). The unit was converted from a community isolation facility and is about 300 square feet. It has a separate kitchen and toilet and is suitable for a family of 4 to 5 people.


According to the authorities, the completed simple public housing will be rented out as "Qingshui Building", and will be equipped with electric water heaters and exhaust fans in the bathroom, but will not be provided with air conditioners in advance like the model flats.

Director of the Housing Bureau, Ho Wing-yin, revealed that the installation of air conditioners for 30,000 units is no longer required, and the overall cost is expected to save 200 million yuan.

The demonstration unit is about 300 square feet, suitable for a family of 4 to 5 people. Although the unit is larger than most transitional housing in the market, it

is an open design and there is no room for independent rooms. However, according to the layout of the authority, residents can arrange it in the future The curtain divides the two living rooms and the living room by itself.

The design of the house is also relatively simple, only a maximum of two or bunk beds can be placed.

As for the living and dining room, each has an independent space division, which can accommodate a sofa, TV cabinet, dining table, etc.

In addition, the unit also has an independent independent kitchen and toilet, a transom window and an exhaust fan in the toilet, and an electric water heater and shower equipment are installed on the toilet, so the toilet is not "separated from wet and dry", that is, there is no separate shower room.

It is worth noting that the demonstration flats are equipped with air-conditioners, but the 30,000 units launched in the future will not be pre-installed with air-conditioners. Residents have to consider whether to install them.

He Yongxian said that after discussing with members of the Housing Authority, he believes that some residents may want to save energy and will not turn on air conditioners, so he believes that residents can decide whether to install air conditioners. It is

expected that there will be no need to install air conditioners for 30,000 simple public housing units machine, a total of about 200 million yuan in construction costs can be reduced, "I remember correctly it should be about 200 million yuan."

If the calculation is based on 30,000 units and one air conditioner per unit, the installation cost of each air conditioner is about 15,000.
