Genting Singapore is Smart. Retrenched Staff weeks after receiving Special Covid Package

[OrhKiam]

Is this considered fair play? after receiving special assistance package from government, now they announced retrenchment?
After eating buffet, just leave the table?
What is the purpose of special package to business owners if they continue to fire staff?
I think Genting Singapore has betrayed government. They should have retrenched staff before receiving special package.

Cannot blame them. Its a casino and theme park that remain shut for 3 months.
If you need casino, go genting in KL as it has opened.

All these special COVID-19 financial packages from our reserves should and must only be given to Singapore owned companies and Singaporean workers.

Less reserve means lower S$ value = more investment and tourist receipts in future.

 

[A Singaporean]

It was very clear from the very beginning that the gahmen wanted companies to hold back retrenchment until after the election and in return companies would receive all the Stimulus packages. Now election over the retrenchment commences. Expect 50000 to be retrench by end of August. The 60.1% will get fucked soon.

No government can totally stop retrenchment.
But good government will give a helping hand to lay off workers to maintain survive a simple life.
Majority of people support ah loong or ah Heng because they know will be take care
