I have been advocating for capital gains tax for property. Also increased property tax for non-owner occupied homes.

The last sentence in the article is right. Lack of political will

Should set property tax on speculators, meaning those who do not live in HDB more than 7 or 10 years. 

Otherwise, HDB property price will just spiral upwards and average Joe cannot afford to buy HDB.
