There have always been cases of flat owners who try to circumvent HDB's rules by locking up one room and subletting the rest of the flat without physically staying in the flat. HDB has clarified that such cases will be treated as unauthorised subletting of flats if home owners did not meet the minimum occupation period and did not seek HDB's approval to sublet their flats. Even if the rooms are sublet out, they must also register their sub-tenants.
The funny thing is I do not recall that there was a hotline where members of the public can report these cases. The HDB's hotline is 1800-555-6370 for reporting any suspected cases of unauthorised subletting.
