Construction status 29 May 2020

The construction for Keat Hong Verge, Choa Chu Kang BTO Aug 2020 in still on hold due to circuit breaker. You can see all the half completed prefabricated rooms, living room laying there for the past 2 months. Some of the units are fitted with windows and had some internal painting done. Thou it's unlikely that this will be the finishing coat of paint, it is still bad for the concrete and rebars to be exposed to the elements for so long. The iron rebars if not sealed properly, will corrode and expand leading to spalling concrete over a period. The same goes for the foundation which is also exposed to the elements for 2 months already. 

The quiet site is in stark contrast to the situation on the opposite plot of land, where construction works had been non-stop everyday. And the work site seems to be growing larger everyday.
Do u think it will become a mega dormitory for our foreign workers?

According to the lastest site map by HDB, that 2 plots of land are still reserved for Healthcare facilities.

So many guessed it may be a mega temporary construction worker dormitory to support the nearby construction only as the G made it mandatory for workers at the same site to stay together and not mingle with other workers from other sites. 

Have you seen other similar urgent dormitory construction in other housing estate? Let us know in the comment below.
