Serious Recession in Singapore

[AsiaDK]

I shared with my friend that I just had a pay cut of 18%.

He told me that SMEs are badly hit too. He works in a small family business and used to help out with deliveries. Now, deliveries are completed by 11am and there's nothing to do in afternoon. To make ends meet, he is now using his van for Foodpanda delivery for lunch and dinner hours.

When I read the papers, COE prices and bank shares are higher than earlier half of this year, Malaysian investors (IOI) is paying $2 billion for a plot of land in city, government saying there are lots of jobs around, REITs paying more dividends, teachers quitting their high-paying jobs for less stressful, greener pastures, etc

Everything looks good on the whole, except for folks around me.

Why want to stick in old job might as well compete with younger generation. Jobs and education is only STEM which shd change with time. Go kick some dust and chop tables with the young generation which the STEM u can handle.

My friend said he can't be driving GrabCar or uber as he has only commercial vehicle.

Ya, even driving uber and GrabCar has no job security ten years down the road, as Singapore is the most enthusiastic cities to develop driverless taxi in the world. At least food delivery will still need someone to delivery the right order to the doorstep.

Everything looks fine?

Singtel, Starhub are shaky. The pay TV revenue has peaked, with so many OTT services and free football streaming. The phone and SMS revenue stream is also fading fast with Wechat, Whatsapp, Skype, etc.
