Hi Mr. Kumar,

You had read the contract very well.

Legally, yes, since TA is in both name, only if anyone of them were ordered to leave SG are able to use this clause to terminate the contract.

However, like you had highlighted, they were not ordered to leave but only one of them had lost their job.

So you might have to read it from the other angle on why they wished to terminate the contract. Can they still service the rent after one of them lost their job? Will they encountered situation where they could not pay you the rent if they continue the lease?

I would suggest you talk to them face to face to understand what was their main concern to terminate the lease rather than bringing this up to court. May be by reducing some rent would pull them through this difficult time and you gain a faithful tenant in long run.

Hope the above answer to your main concerns, but if there are more queries, please feel free to contact me at 90110636  , or email: ling.ck7@gmail.com if more information is needed.
I'll be glad to assist.

Best regards

Hi Kumar, if the lease is for 2 years and tenant have stayed for at least 1 year, then yes, they can apply for diplomatic clause in this case.
