° Housing shortage means the demand of housing exceeding the supply of it.
° Thus, the government would zone out a larger are for the construction of more housing in order to cater to the housing needs of the rest fot he residents of Singapore.
° It is beacause of this that there will be less space for attractions and tourism (e.g. Amusement parks, museums etc.) With less of these attractions, less people can visit them, inevitably, resulting in less revenue earned from this line.
° Thus, leads revenue is also earned by the government of Singapore leading to the economic downturn of the country.

One of the environmental effects of housing shortage in Hong Kong is land pollution.

When there is a lack of housing, people resort to living in "cage homes" or even slums and squatter settlements.

The stench of cigarette butts and days-old garbage lingers in the air and rubbish is strewn all over the landings.

Moreover, due to the lack of waste management facilities, resident continue to litter in an impetous way. When more people live in such places, they produce more waste and this accumulates over time, leading to the prevalence of garbage and litter. Thus, housing shortage leads to land pollution.

When housing shortage occurs, the government would use up more land to build up houses to cater to the rising demand due to the rising population.

° Housing shortage would mean that quite a large group of people would be forced to simply settle down in slums or squatter settlements.
° The major issue of such dwellings that hinder them from being 'liveable' would be the absence of proper ventilation, sanitation and even lighting, all basic and very vital factors. Such housing is also undeniably cramp and overcrowded most of the time.
° Hence, with a lack of the above mentioned basic amenities, people would have poor levels of hygiene.
° Thus would mean the presence of diseases that may harm the health of the residents in such housing as they would also be prone the many diseases due to their low levels of hygiene (caused by the lack of proper sanitation and waste management facilities).

This is because rivers in slums used for washing, garbage and sewage disposal. Contaminants from sewage seep into the groundwater and pollute groundwater sources such as wells. Waste is dumped into open drains and areas outside the houses and the heaps of garbage generates foul smell.

One of the economic effect caused by housing shortage in Hong Kong is that there undeveloped infrastructure will remain undeveloped.

Only 6.9% of Hong Kong's land mass has been zoned for housing. Within the 6.9% half is taken up by high density rural homes that cannot he easily bought or sold, a mere 42 sq km is left on tue market for the urban population. The government's reliance on land sales for revenue creates an incentive to keep prices high. Thus, with less housing and high housing prices, less people are able to afford housing. Therefore, the revenue made from housing will decrease, and the government may have insufficient (exiguous) money and  resources to develop the 33% of undeveloped infrastructure.

The contribution of housing policy in Singapore to financial sector development, housing wealth formation and macro-economic performance, both retrospectively and prospectively. It provides an overview of past housing policies and traces the linkages to the financial sector. Housing policy as effected through the Housing and Development Board and the Central Provident Fund (CPF) hampered the development of the commercial housing loans sector and domestic financial markets, but contributed to the overall growth and stability of the housing loans market and associated financial institutions. Housing policy and the trend of housing asset inflation contributed significantly to the formation of both gross and net housing wealth. Economic growth has not suffered from the heavy emphasis on housing investment although various policies that resulted in exogenous shifts in housing demand contributed to increased housing price volatility in the short term. The structure of the housing loans market has also allowed the CPF contribution rate to be more effectively used as an instrument for macro-economic stabilisation.
