Summary of Land Ownership in Singapore Inquiry:
Who:
Me (grandson, a Malaysian currently stay in Malaysia, currently aged 30 of Mr Tan , my grandpa, a Malaysian too who passed away already years ago.
What:
Trying to verify land ownership in Singapore for my grandfather Tan
Why:
Heard my grand mum and grandpa discuss land ownership in Singapore in 2004，when i was 12 years old. / LAND TITLE WAS LOST
Unable to find any land ownership documents among their belongings.
We don’t know the land address and details since the title was lost many years ago.
Information i have to find back possibly a land possibly owned by my grandpa 60 years ago as:
Grandfather's full name
Old Malaysian ID number
New Malaysian ID number
Request from SLA:
Check for land ownership records under Grandfather's full name
Old Malaysian ID number
New Malaysian ID number in Singapore.
PROBLEM 1: SLA said in email: they CANNOT LOCATE THE LAND OWNERSHIP without land’s address or lot number which i do not have (LAND TITLE WAS LOST)
PROBLEM 2: I ask property lawyer for help, the lawyer said only with a name and Malaysian IC: Identity card, lawyer cannot assist me to find or prove any possession of land by my family too as it would have been an inheritance to my family.
Now i am at DEAD END, ANY property agents done a similar search on proof of ownership of a Singapore land purely by using Malaysian name and IC?
Additional Notes:
Difficulty obtaining accurate family information due to:
Grandfather and father born before Malaysia's formation.
Name discrepancies and limited records from British colonial period.
I have done my best to gather relevant documents.
