AN ELDERLY couple in Singapore who gave up their duplex(
duplex apartment
–noun| an apartment with rooms on two connected floors.) |
to their son ended up homeless after he chased them out of the house, Sin Chew Daily reported on Thursday.
The couple now call the staircase of a school their home.
The man, who gave his surname as Lim, was a manager before he retired. He has a son and a daughter who live in Jurong.
Relating his ordeal to a secretary of the school, Mr Lim said he and his wife decided to give their duplex home to their son as a wedding gift about two years ago.
The couple thought that they could live in the house with their son. He, however, decided to sell the property for RM960,000 to buy another condominium. Mr Lim and his wife were then sent off to live with their daughter.
After a year, the daughter decided that they were no longer welcome and banned them from touching her children.
The couple could not enter the house after their daughter changed the locks to the house.
Why he's inhumane:
1 He should be grateful for the apartment and all the more let him stay in the apartment!
2 He should not sell the house at all as that is his wedding gift and it is bought with the hard-earned money of his parents.
3 His Dad spent years taking great care of him and loved him because he bothered to select a condominium for him.
Ambrose and I pledged to allow Gread-grandma, Grandma and Mummy to stay in an apartment we would buy as soon as we earn 2 million dollars!!!
I will never abandon you!
