DEFINITION

Adjective

Housing and Development Board (HDB) flats in Singapore built with one bedroom and one living room. Also known in Mandarin as “二房式组屋”.

由来
  • 自 1960 年成立以来,建屋发展局(Housing Development Board)便负责为普通民众建设廉价且高质量的公共住房。
  • 政府组屋的型式是依照睡房与客厅的房间数量总和进行,来进行划分。
  • 在 1960 至 1965 年间,约三成的组屋为二房式组屋。截至 1963 年,当时所兴建的组屋皆为租赁式组屋。当时二房式的月租为 40 新币。
  • 2015 年,建屋局推出二房式灵活计划(2-Room Flexi Scheme),为年长者和低收入人群提供更为廉价的住屋选择。
  • 二房式的住房面积起初有 37 平方米、41 平方米和 45 平方米三种。目前二房式灵活计划所提供的两种住房,面积分别为 37 平 方米和 46 平方米。
ETYMOLOGY
  • Since its establishment in 1960, HDB has been responsible for building affordable and high-quality public housing for the common people.
  • Types of government flats are distinguished according to the total number of rooms, which includes living rooms and bedrooms.
  • Between 1960 and 1965, about 30% of flats were 2-room flats. As of 1963, all flats built were rental flats. The monthly rent for a 2-room flat then was $40.
  • In 2015, HDB rolled out the 2-Room Flexi Scheme to provide more affordable housing options for the elderly and low-income groups.
  • Initially, 2-room flats came in three sizes: 37, 41, and 45 square metres in area. Currently, the 2-Room Flexi Scheme provides two types of housing units, with respective sizes of 37 and 46 square metres in area.
