Eleven months since its opening, Tuas View Dormitory continues to face a
tough challenge of increasing its occupancy.
The first purpose-built foreign
worker dormitory in Singapore has 16,800 beds across 20 blocks – but is only 50
percent occupied.
TS Group, the company managing the dormitory, said the “lukewarm response” is
due to the downtrend in the economy, especially in the marine industry. Oil
prices have been decreasing, and stood at a 5-month low on 13 July .
In the
past few months, some tenants have even checked out to save cost.
Living in the Tuas View Dormitory costs $300 for a bed in a standard room and
up to $350 for a bed in a premium room. Each room has 12 beds and lockers, two
ceiling fans and two standing fans. Premium rooms have linoleum-covered floors
and a refrigerator. Some companies have even opted for air-conditioning in their
workers’ rooms.
Located at Tuas South Avenue 1, Tuas View Dormitory is the first of 20
purpose-built dormitories the government is building. The dormitory opened in
August, just months before the Foreign Dormitories Act, which legislates the
licensing of larger foreign worker dormitories, was passed in November 2014.
