SINGAPORE: Requiring employers to notify authorities before they retrench workers may discourage talks to save jobs, Manpower Minister Tan See Leng said on Tuesday (Mar 3).

He was responding to calls by labour chief Ng Chee Meng and other members of parliament (MPs) from the National Trades Union Congress (NTUC) to implement advance mandatory retrenchment notifications.
 
Before Trump visits Beijing on April Fools' Day. Assuming nothing new happens in China. :sneaky:

And for those Trump Derangement Syndrome creatures here... Trump is preventing WW3, not inciting it. There is inversion in everything these days: good is called evil, evil is called good, man is called woman, woman is called man etc. :cool:
 
The longer the better. So I voted for more than 6.9 years.:biggrin:

By the way, although I'm not pro-Islam (whether Shia or Sunni or any other "schools"or "branches"), I think it's wise/important to at least be aware of the Iranian mainstream news; so I've decided to read news articles from the following website at least once everyday until the end of the war:

www.presstv.ir
www.presstv.ir/Live
www.presstv.ir/Section/13013
wikipedia.org/wiki/Press_TV
www.presstv.ir/aboutus/WhatPressTVis


For example:
www.presstv.ir/Detail/2026/03/05/764993/irgc-khorramshahr-4-missiles-struck-Tel-Aviv-Ben-Gurion-and-Israeli-air-base-in-latest-wave


"The IRGC says at least 560 American troops have been killed in retaliatory operations"
:eek:

The oil and gold price will rocket:frown::frown::frown:
Here's a list of "oil prices for over 150 global crude blends and indexes":
oilprice.com/oil-price-charts
and here's a weekly chart (since late 2021, over four years ago) of the US crude oil price:
finance.yahoo.com/chart/CL=F


Looks like the price is beginning to "rocket" because it went up by roughly 35% (nearly US$25) during the past week (or five trading days, to be more precise) to roughly US$90 now! :eek:
So I think there's at least a 69% chance that it will hit US$169 during the next 6.9 months or even 6.9 weeks! :eek:
