'Suits me very well': S'pore actor Thomas Ong moves into 2-room flexi flat
He says that everything in the house is just '2 steps' away.
Actor Thomas Ong, 57, has downsized to a 38 sqm two-room Flexi flat and considers it the happiest thing that happened to him this year. The actor, who previously lived in a three-room HDB flat, revealed on Facebook that he secured the smaller flat after waiting a year and a half and trying twice. Ong jokes that his bedroom, kitchen, and toilet are each only a few steps away and that he can clean his entire home in under 30 minutes.
Despite the limited space, Ong loves the compactness of the flat, which forces him to get out more. He enjoys dining at a nearby mall for food and exercising, but finds cleaning a breeze due to the small size of the flat. While Ong initially thought the smaller home would encourage him to get out more, he has now become too comfortable and finds himself wanting to stay in more often. Ong plans to film a video about his renovation and share a full house tour in the future.
