| Message | We oppose - all this will do is increase rents for tenants, in order to provide profits for the companies. |

| Message | Yes. If private companies provide housing, it needs to be cheaper or equal to what they were paying the government for it, and this needs to be strictly regulated. |

| Message | Under the condition that this is, as Kirlawan Lightning says, regulated to guarantee a fair rent for low-income families we'll accept. |
