SINGAPORE: Could you accept a neighbour monitoring your daily movements along the common corridor of an HDB block through the installation of a closed-circuit television camera outside their home?
Jimmy Lin said it was acceptable because"you will never know when you need the footage from your neighbour to help you in case of theft or other matters". William Liew said it was good, because"you have free security surveillance".Indeed, according to the law, residents in HDB flats are not allowed to install CCTV cameras outside their homes, unless they have received approval from HDB.
Owner of Choicecycle CCTV Eric Cheong said that the sale of CCTVs for use outside homes have gone up by at least 20 per cent, and added that he sells “hundreds of pieces” of CCTVs for residential use per month. Before installing a CCTV outside their homes, people will have to make a police report and seek approval from the town councils, said Mr Tan, adding that the company will inform buyers of the rules when they are making their purchase.
