NUS professor Tan Khee Giap predicts that Singapore will experience massive unemployment rates before the next GE

[Leckmichamarsch]

His prediction is based on below key factors:

1) AI development

2) current uncontrolled employment pass and work permit issued to foreigners

3) mismatched of skills and qualify of graduates produced by Singapore provide institutions (excluding NUS, NTU and SMU)

4) uncompetitive and unproductive Singapore SME

5) driverless vehicles to be introduced by Grab in 2026 and beyond

7) Singapore economy is still relying on COE, work levy, maid levy, property rental collection which is counter-productive in the age of AI

spot on

Can predict so much, yet still just a salaried worker, ironic, isn’t it?
These people should use their ‘superpowers’ to make money from the financial market instead.

He is a professor and he works in the university. go check his background first on why he make any prediction of anything and why he make it. ( or go check if he really make such prediction, people here can post half fake erroneous story)

As far as i know, professor is being paid a salary because he WORKS in a university. He is paid to share his knowledge and research on things. In a society, we need people like him. This type is different from freelancer and entrepreneur.

Sinkie employers hire them and CECAs know how to suck the balls of Sinkie bosses

Ramesh knows best with Uptron, condo and BMW

This is why the average S'porean living in a HDB and w/o a car feels so much resentment towards CECAs like Ramesh who are able to afford both a condo and BMW as well as have a lucrative job.

It’s more like Sinkies do not like CECAs Ramesh and friends who snatch jobs from Sinkies and walk up and down with their hot water flask at 11am, 4pm daily for 1 hr before coming upstairs and pack bag to go home or CECAs do work like always no deadlines. If anyone worked with CECAs before, u will understand
