If, and that is a big if, I were a Minister and decided to stay at a 1 room rental flat, will the PM object?
Of course he will, and he will cite a myriad of reasons..
So, on the converse, if I were to rent a super GCB with improvements by SLA done and maintained by SLA, how come he no objection at all?

I suddenly realise what LHY said about him was right all along. Not only he forced his close one to run road and distort his dead father's will, He also treat us like idiot and openly condon such practice. THey are not here to protect and improve the people's lifes, but their own

What you’ve said reminded me before President Halimah was taking the Presidential role, she was staying in a HDB apartment. She had to move to a private property eventually when she was appointed to be the President. I think you make some sense in your comments.

It's much more than that. It is the same reason as wearing a Rolex and owning a yacht and keeping a mistress are frowned upon even if you hv the means as a politician
You can do so quietly and not get discovered, as your credibility and popularity depends on the voters
This is not happening for PAP because the whole political landscape is captive by their tyranny, so power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely and this is happening for PAP nowadays
