http://www.straitstimes.com/STI/STIMEDIA/sp/PMspeech/PM%20lee%20NDR%20in%20mandarin.pdf
At the National Day Rally speech on 20 Aug 2006, PM Lee said, “One example is the Marina Bay IR project. The IR will create over 30,000 jobs, with 10,000 in the resort, and another 20,000 in other hotels, restaurants and shopping malls. There will be a wide range of jobs available, including jobs at the top-end and jobs for ordinary workers. These jobs are suitable for both young and old Singaporeans.”
Note that only 5,000 jobs were created for the Marina Bay IR as announced by Sands but I think that’s still fine. However, read the last sentence. He promised that “these jobs are suitable for both young and old Singaporeans”. He did not mention PRs then.
So, if Marina Bay IR employs less than 50% real Singaporeans, isn't PM lee lying to us?
What do you guys think?
