Former school put up for rent

Source : Business Times - 5 Feb 2009

The Singapore Land Authority (SLA) has launched the former Siglap Primary School for rent by public tender.

The 2,258 sq m property at 10 LaSalle St has a guide rent of $42,900, which works out to $1.77 psf.

Approved uses for the site include commercial, privately funded and foreign schools, arts/dance/ drama studios and child- care or kindergarten.

SLA has received enquiries from 10 interested parties. The director of its land operations (private) division, Teo Cher Hian, said: ‘Based on the favourable response to our recent tenders for sites with a commercial school as an approved use, we have reason to believe this site will be similarly well received, despite current economic conditions.’

Last year, two properties were awarded for education-related use. And in 2007, eight properties were awarded for such use.

Schools that have rented from SLA include Dimensions Commercial School, Westminster Unicampus, EASB Institute of Management, JCU Singapore, Canadian International School and Curtin University.

In January, Cambridge Institute put in the top bid for the former Mee Toh School in Race Course Road. It hopes to use the building to conduct diploma and tertiary courses.

Siglap Primary School is being offered on a three- year lease with an option to renew for a further three years, then a further two years.

I’m Charles David by name, i want to use this medium to alert all loan seekers to be very careful because there are scam everywhere, Few months ago I was financially strained, and due to my desperation I was scammed by several online lenders. I had almost lost hope until a friend of mine referred me to a very reliable lender called Dr Purva Pius ( A God fearing man) who lend me a loan of $237,000 under 72 working hours without any stress. I explain to the company by mail and all they told me was to cry no more because i will get my loan from this company and also i have made the right choice of contacting them i filled the loan application form and proceeded with all that was requested of me and to my shock I was given the loan, If you are in need of any kind of loan just contact him now via: {urgentloan22@gmail.com}
