释义

名词

具有共用设施的私人多层住宅。也“共管公寓”。

DEFINITION

Noun

A private multi-storey residential development with shared facilities. Also known in Mandarin as “共管公寓”.

由来
  • 英语“condominium”的意译。
  • 共管式公寓一般有保安并设有围墙。多数共管式公寓内也设有康乐设施，如游泳池、烧烤架、网球场等。
  • 拥有分层地契（strata title）的屋主会共同选定共用空间的管理单位，并按拥有的物业面积所制订的份额，缴纳管理费。
  • 1970年代初期的屋价高涨，不少中等收入的家庭（middle-in-come family）因为收入超过顶限，没有资格购买建屋发展局 （Housing & Development Board，简称“建屋局”）所建的政府组屋（HDB flats），又没有能力购买私人有地住宅。当时的城市重建局（Urban Renewal Department）为了解决这个民生问题，开始构想“共管式公寓”（当时称为“共管住屋”等）的概念。
  • 共管式公寓的概念后来由1974年4月1日正式成立的市区重建局（Urban Redevelopment Authority）落实。1977年在乌鲁班丹 （Ulu Pandan）建成的槟兰谷（Pandan Valley）是当时的一个试点项目，拥有十分齐全的共用设施。
  • 1996年，随着房价不断上升，新加坡立法推出执行共管公寓 （Executive Condominium），让更多中等收入家庭可以买得起有私人共管式公寓设施的住屋。购买新建的执行共管公寓有最低居住年限（minimum occupation period），而且屋主当中必须有新加坡公民或永久居民。
ETYMOLOGY
  • The Mandarin term “共管式公寓” is a paraphrase of the English term “condominium”.
  • Condominiums are usually gated developments with security guards controlling access. Most are also built with recreational facilities such as swimming pools, barbecue pits and tennis courts.
  • Homeowners with a strata title would jointly select the management team for their shared facilities, and pay their share of the management fee in proportion to the property area they own.
  • When housing prices soared in the early 1970s, many middle-income families, who were ineligible to buy Government flats as their income exceeded the stipulated limit, found themselves with insufficient capital to buy private landed property. The then Urban Renewal Department thus began floating the idea of condominiums.
  • The condominium concept was later implemented by the Urban Redevelopment Authority, which was officially set up on 1 April 1974. Pandan Valley, built in Ulu Pandan in 1977, was a pilot project at that time, designed to have comprehensive shared facilities.
  • As housing prices continued to rise, Singapore enacted a law in 1996 to introduce Executive Condominiums (EC) so that more middle-income families could afford housing with private condominium facilities. Purchasing a newly built EC requires a minimum occupation period and at least one of the owners to be a Singaporean citizen or Permanent Resident.
例句
他昨天在国会上回答议员的口头询问，维护政府的EC计划时，还形容EC计划好比是让期望拥有私人共管式公寓的家庭，用购买丰田柯罗拉（Corolla）的价钱，买到一部豪华的立胜（Lexus）轿车。（《联合早报》，15/1/2013）
SAMPLE SENTENCE
Responding in parliament to a verbal inquiry by a Member of Parliament yesterday regarding the Government’s Executive Condominium scheme, the Minister likened the EC plan of allowing families to realise their wish of owning a private condominium to buying a luxury Lexus sedan for the price of a Toyota Corolla. (Lianhe Zaobao, 15/1/2013)
