Hi Mr. Koh,
The restrictions that your friend is referring to are mainly applicable to Work Permit holders. Work Permit holders who are renting a whole HDB flat from Construction, Marine and Process and Manufacturing sectors must be Malaysians.
You can also rent out to SC / SPRs / EP and SPass holders, regardless of their sectors. Hence the tenant pool is still quite large, and you should be able to find a decent tenant profile still. The only main concern should be declining rentals and competition within the vicinity.

May I have more info and requirements about your plans so to make better recommendations? Thanks and look forward to value-add to your housing plans.
Warm Regards,
