"HDB told the Chinese daily that the unit was approved for rent as the owner has been living overseas for a long period."
This is a freaking loophole. My PRC ex-classmate converted to SG citizenship but he decided to back to his home country for good. His HDB is being used to collect rent using this same reason.
