    You have more rights when you return a $20 toaster to a supermarket than you do a brand new apartment. The government tells us that with the increasing populations in our cities the only way is up – take it or leave it! With that proviso it would seem that one has to also accept and pay for any problems that may arise.

    I have read insurances are not required for residential constructions over 3 storeys. Shouldn’t it be the other way around? No insurances required for 3 storeys or below? How can we expect safe and sound high rise homes when those responsible are not held responsible!

    Not until those who built apartment towers are held accountable for the quality of their builds – materials used and building codes met – will we see developments that are well designed and constructed and made to last for years.
