We too have many iniatives too don't we. Like job credit, spur etc but is it working. Working or not, I do not know. I am sure, just like any countries, stimulus programs are here to give the economy a boast. Not all kids that go to schools will come out a professor in later stage of their...

My relative (singular) working in an office making SG1500K - 2000K a week, on his own effort, merit, hardwork, corruption-free environment even in this crisis-hit economy.

Do not forget the 1997 financial crisis and how Singapore treated us when we were in need. Not only SG, US, UK, IMF and most the rest of the world treated Malaysia just the same, why single out SG?? Today, Singapore is reeling under the weight of the global financial tsunami, but Lee Kuan...

You crowd other people's place, or let other people crowd yours. Some hate migrants coming to SG, but happy becoming migrants in others country.

I then asked him where he was from. He replied China. I told him in Mandarin (since my Hokkien really bad) that what he was doing was illegal. Are you sure? I have met so many China-Chinese in SG, none of them speaks Hokkien (even they are from Hokkien). Even Taiwanese-chineses do not speak...
