NTUC Chief warns of more layoffs, Contact S'pore give career talk to Indian PMETs

[SNAblog]

The fate of Singaporean workers cannot be more clearer than this.

On one hand, NTUC Chief Lim Swee Say warns Singaporeans to expect more layoffs. On the other hand, Contact Singapore has given a career talk to Indian PMETs on working in Singapore.

"More people are expected to be retrenched this year compared with the figure last year, as signs of an economic slowdown become more evident, Lim Swee Say said yesterday, in a report by the Straits Times.

As demand slows, some companies are already putting their workers on a shorter work week, such as having them work only four days a week, the labour chief noted."

The next session was on "Career opportunities in Singapore" by Ho Ee Hong, Area Director, Contact Singapore, who talked about the basic information any person new to Singapore would be looking for like the cost of living, the blooming industries, and the culture. Hong talked about various ways a professional can visit Singapore-after getting a job, in search for employment, and for setting up a business-the liberal policies of the government when it comes to taxes and the ease of setting up a company make Singapore a place of opportunities galore.

No conflict la. The Ah Nehs will gradually replace us. Otherwise why they want to import 900000 ah Nehs? We Siao Siao vote so we Siao Liao.

The bastard should be pressurizing the govt to create jobs, or otherwise asking them hard questions about what are they doing for the jobless. Instead, he is in bed with the govt and employers and screwing the workers.

He cries for ah mei's, never saw this clown crying for SINgaporeans??, maybe we should layoff all these 'deadwoods' that causes us to be laid off from our jobs, for they are costing the taxpayers too much.

The best part is when this clown Zorro Lim Siah Suay spouts his nonsense and worthless comments, he puts on a very serious face as if like he is thinking so very hard, tries his best to look intelligent to convey such profound wisdom for the benefit of S'poreans. As some of the other forumers had alluded to, even the elderly foodcourt cleaner know how to say this, and mind you she only earns a meagre $800 pm while this idiot earns millions. It's a pity that East Coast GRC did not fall to the opposition, else he and ex Transport Minister Lemon Lim would be the ones being retrenched.

Singapore because of its positive reputation has always been a favorite destination for foreigners who are leaving their chaotic and uncertain countries for a better life.

It's the Utopia of Asia, and in many ways as a place to work, live and play it is even more attractive than Hong Kong and Japan even.

This is a very good development because workers can now devote more time to their friends and family, unlike in the old days when people work 5 1/2 to 6 days a week.

How many hours do Bill Gates and Warren Buffett put in every week?

For so long the locals had their chance at prosperity and now the foreigners should also be allowed a chance to gain access to a good education, career and live a good life too.

Locals really have a lot to learn from foreigners in terms of humility, worldview and gratitude.

what do you mean locals had their chance at prosperity, What about those who just came out from school? Those in the low-income families who have children coming into the work place?

B.s la, You think the mass majority of F.T have humility? Most have dog eat dog characters just to get out from their shit-hole. You think they have worldview? Most have never stepped out of their home land b4. Gratitude? To who are they going to show this to..lol Gratitude!!! That is some funny shit.. You are either a troll or just too naive.
Then what about the new generation? Who just came out from school?

Ehh With more India Nationals, Prc, Pinoys, Brits, Aussies, Americans.. This place will be a full-blown Factory by the end of 2012.
