Addressing SPH employees on Thursday morning at a town hall at the News Centre in Toa Payoh North, which lasted at least three hours, chief executive Ng Yat Chung cited a Chinese proverb in explaining the rationale for bringing forward the timeline.
“We have decided as a leadership team, rather than drag this process over two years, let’s get it done…Chang tong bu ru duan tong (let’s not prolong the pain). Get this unpleasantness behind us and hopefully, we won’t have to touch this topic again for a long time.”
David Teo, president of the Creative Media and Publishing Union (CMPU), which represents SPH staff among others, said CMPU is working with NTUC’s e2i to help affected workers with job placement assistance. “The union has been working closely with the management to ensure that workers are given a fair retrenchment package to tide them through this tough period,” said Teo.

Not enuff $$$ orledi for brother and sister and nephew.
So doggies and sonderkommandoes got to be given the boot.
So you hopefuls can hope long long.
Even those from their Goebbels machine kenna thrown onto rubbish heap and got to go Uberring or work as cleaners in McDonald or hawker centers.
Oops, not much work as stinkaporeans being forced to clear up in addition to being hawker assistants to serve themselves.
