To take on a Higher Calling! Mr Tan Jee Say has taken up the challenge in Presidential Election, the highest position of this Nation, in hope to change the direction Singapore is heading towards.
Highlights:
"The PAP Government has lost its moral compass."
Mr Tan, whom the Singapore Democratic Party unveiled in its second and final batch of candidates, said he strongly advocates Singapore moving away from manufacturing to the services industry but the casino and gaming sector was the “wrong type of services to go into”, compared to sectors such as education and healthcare.
Currently an investment adviser, he recently wrote a paper entitled “Creating Jobs and Enterprise in a New Singapore Economy – Ideas for Change”, in which he recommended reducing the teacher-student ratio by half, which would double the existing number of 30,000 teachers.
“What is this 35,000 jobs in the casino? Nothing. You just spend five years, S$10 billion, you create 30,000 jobs for teachers. These are noble jobs, good and meaningful jobs, to invest in the future of children. Not the casino jobs (of) dealers and croupiers,” he said.
Look at the social problems brought to us from the two IRS, is gaming industry the way to move us forward? Through Vice and Sinful industries?
Say casiNO.
