65% PAP voters still complaining to mainstream media they are unemployed, fuck off to HDB please!

Please understand doctors need to drive Mercedes and BMW. Otherwise studied so hard for what ?

Not all doctors drive Mercedes and BMW. They take the MRT and lives in HDB flats

No choice. They super know how to juice sick patients money.

Sick patients are at their vulnerable and weak condition which is the best time to squeeze out money from them.

The younger docs may not even own a car these days owing to the crazy COE premiums.

I notice that these days. Even the specialists in private practice claim that the good old days of the 1980s to 2010 when Indonesians, wealthy Malaysians and Arabs routinely came to S'pore are behind us. Unless young specialists inherit their parents' medical suites, the astronomical cost of rental is decimating the earnings of these clinicians.

Rich Indonesian, Malaysian and Arab patients will rather go to Thailand, China for treatment because who would like to go to overpriced arrogant Sinkie specialists only be ripped off and shown this notice no abuse and harassment towards their staff like all patients who walk in are all the nonsensical one

Good. Let the rent become higher and higher and let price point will drive rich foreign patients away and no one can pay for such high prices in Sg.

Many jobless sinkies still think that PAPPY is the greatest. Are you curious why that is the case?

Once a resident at Jalan Kayu reveal he vote incumbent because he is afraid his comcare assistance will be affected
And he dont care who is running the Govt, dont care politics, just want to live his life. So if add CDC, can sway people.

Abuse of docs and nurses happen far more often in the public sector.

The PAP has read the ground well; the masses don't care about policies except those that affect them directly. They see the CDC vouchers as a lifeline $ and are easily swayed to vote for the govt that shows them the money.

More like entitied docs and nurses who cannot take complaint or mistakes as public servants use this as an excuse. The worst patients are CSC card patients.

Very self entitled and the public sector docs and nurses don’t dare to go after them and pick on grumpy ill uneducated grandpa and grandma

Abuse of patients’ wallets happen much more in private hospitals.

Abuse of patients’ wallets happen much more in private hospitals.

The days of rampant overcharging are almost over as more well-informed patients opt for public healthcare. If one has an appt at a polyclinic or specialist outpatient clinic, the waiting time is quite bearable. Foreigners who don't qualify for subsidies are still seeing private specialists. As businessmen, private docs would charge along the upper limits of fee guidelines, which remain as such - merely guidelines.

The reason why so called abuse docs and nurses exist is to remove the rights of subsidised patients so they pay private rate to be treated well by specialists in public sector hospitals including their appointments. It’s all a business after all

SINGAPORE - The Chinese mainland remained Singapore's largest source of visitors this year, with arrivals reaching 2.93 million in the first 11 months, according to data released on Monday by the Singapore Tourism Board.

In November, arrivals from the Chinese mainland rose 16.5 percent year-on-year to 203,530. Local media attributed the increase to China's rollout of an autumn school holiday, piloted in cities across provinces including Zhejiang, Sichuan and Guangdong. The additional three days off, when combined with weekends, extended breaks to five days.

Singapore received 1.29 million visitor arrivals in November, up 4.8 percent from a year earlier. Total arrivals for the first 11 months of the year reached 15.55 million, a 2.7 percent increase compared with the same period last year.

Global assets in the sprawling shadow banking sector have crossed the $250 trillion mark for the first time, new data from the Financial Stability Board shows, fueling fears of mounting systemic risks from less regulated corners of the financial sector.

The FSB’s annual global financial monitor shows non bank financial institutions — a group that spans hedge funds, insurers, investment funds and others — had a record $256.8 trillion of assets at the end of 2024, up 9.4% year-on-year. The group now accounts for 51% of total financial assets, similar to its pre-pandemic share.
