    I am not a bit surprise at all. In our cabinent, we have already created Snr Minister and Minister Mentor. It's not amazing SAF has a SNR LTC. We might as well have a LTC Mentor in future. Well, we can't have too many Stars in the army...u will go dizzy.

    US banks record profits from borrowing $ at 0% interest rates.

    I can't help feel that the global economy system is a little screwed up. We are not rewarding the hardworking people anymore. I am not red-eyed because the employees of banks or financial institutions are making a lot of money. Well, I think they deserved to be well-compensated if they really...

    NIE against employing of age 50 and above

    I really wish that could happen, maybe it is me, I am not someone who can strike it big. I have no biz acumen, no capital and the no connection. I'll probably need to work till I retire, of course, if some company still wants me when I am old. I guess my highest chance to strike it big, is...

    NIE against employing of age 50 and above

    This is sad case. If the advocator is not practising what he/she preaches, we are definitely sure that there isn't a large following. Hopefully, this is just one off case. Otherwise, I'll be worried for myself as I would be 50 over one day.

    HOW CAN WE BECOME A CHEAPER ECONOMY?--Suay Suay

    If he really said that, it's a sad thing for all Singaporean workers and a huge setback for decades of labour movement. Instead of progressing, we are stuck in a economy still depending very much on GLCs and MNCs. We have failed to develop more corporations like Creative, OSIM and etc. I'll give...

    Sheng Shiong Abuses Job Credit Scam PROFIT?

    It is really very sad to see all the wet markets closed. Imagine if you only have air-con supermarts to buy your groceries, life will definitely be poorer. I do not want this sector to be dominated by Sheng Shiong, NTUC, Shop and Save, Prime, Cold Storage, etc only. If you go to HK, a city that...

    Sheng Shiong to Replace Sporns With FTrash in Wet Markets?!

    I shall not speculate what will happen if Sheng Shiong manage to convert all the wet markets to supermarket. But one thing I can be sure...the stall owners will not have a mean to make a decent livelihood. All the stalls will be gone and replaced by the "Sheng Shiong" supermart concept. Whether...

    German, Jap auto engineer any good?

    I have worked with German engineers before. They are as described by the bros here - GOOD. In any case, the western countries place a lot of importance in craftmanship and skills we deemed low-class here. A good auto mechanic or a skilled plumber can earn pretty good money in Europe. In the...

    Shops all empty, retail sector habis

    Totally agreed with you. I dun pity the high-end retailers for they should have made their calculation carefully when they enter the expensive arena. And they should be very aware of the game they are in. As for uncles and aunties trying to earn a living with their stalls in the wet markets...

    Donch worry ! Wet markets will stay becos PAP jerks afraid to lose votes !

    It's very sad. It used to be that if you would work hard, you can set up a small biz as a hawker or market stall owner. You could also earn a decent living. In fact, I have a friend whose mum is a fishmonger and she could earn at least 5000 a month. And that was 10 years ago. I would still...

    Maybe it's to tap his Indian contacts?

    Shops all empty, retail sector habis

    I was talking to some of my German colleagues when they came over for work about their trip here. All in all, the first impression is that the country is very clean, very good. Of course, I do not know how much political-correct answer was that. Anyway, I asked them if they bought things for...

    Overwhelming % of Rich Kids Do Better in Schools! NO BRAINER!

    So what if it is satistically proven that kids from rich families have a higer probability of doing well both academically and socially? I do not deny this as a true fact. I just feel it's pretty pointless to do such comparison, it's like comparing apples to oranges. Given the advantages the...

    Genting : Right's Issue, is the stock a good buy?

    There are many better quality stocks around. I won't recommend a buy. However, if you believe in the gambling prospect of Singapore, it could be a stock you can hold. Return-wise, I would think there are more obvious choices.

    Reserve Book Also Need to Pay? FCUK PAPEE!

    BTW, to add on. I was at the library 2 days ago to borrow some books. When I was at the borrowing station, the machine refuse to grant me the loan for the books because I had outstanding fines. Thinking I might be owing the library a large amount, I quickly scan my account information at another...

    Reserve Book Also Need to Pay? FCUK PAPEE!

    Singapore tax rate is in fact very high too. However, it's hidden in the form of CPF. Imagine a person earning $3000, the 20% contribution he put in the CPF account monthly - $600. And if you consider the employer contribution, which is another 14.5% - $435. Total contribution by you to the Gov...

    CapitaLand in the red

    I think we have too much Shopping Malls in Singapore. And most of the malls lack character. The character I talking about is not the appearance cos that is only a small part of the whole attraction. Our malls are mainly very similar, especially the newer ones. My suggestion to the major...

    30% Drop in Pay for Peasants Compared to 10 Years Ago! FCUK PAPEE TRAITORS!

    It is very sad to read this, a fact, a lot of bros here already know. On one hand, we want to keep this part of the service cheap and squeeze the contractors so much that they can barely pay their cleaners. I think we can start with the Gov. Town councils should reward contracts not to the...
