No help again for owners of private property

Again, owners of private property were not given any rebates in this Budget.

They suffer the same, if not more, increases in water fees.

If the objective of the increase is to urge people to save water, then shouldn't everyone bear the same cost?

The hardest hit are retirees living in private properties - they do not have any income, yet have to bear the increase.

I hope the Government can review this.
