TKL: PAP Tendering Process benefited well-connected People & led to high Inflation!

[BuiKia]

Singapore was a low cost country 50 years ago. It became a high cost country over the past 30 years. We are now one of the most expensive countries in the world!

This journey to become a high cost country has been bad for our character and is destroying the future for our next generation.

A major contributing factor is the belief that "tendering" is the best way to allocate resources. This is a mistaken belief. It has allowed certain opportunists to make a lot of money at the expense of the general public - in the price of homes, shops, contracting work, etc.

Instead of reducing cost, it has allowed certain well connected people to make excessive profits. It has also led to corrupt practices - for example, some of the recent cases that were prosecuted. This must be the tip of the iceberg.

The tender system has also lead to bad workmanship and lower standards. Look at the poor quality of our HDB flats at one time, and now the frequent breakdown of the MRT trains.

Our COE system, for tendering of the expensive piece of paper, has also gone haywire.

There is a better way than the tender system. If only our well paid civil servants and political leadership use their common sense and think differently.

Tender that is shortlisted or "rigged" to a few players will satisfy regulatory requirements but can lead to higher prices. That is common knowledge.

Same guy whose NTUC Income was allowed to corner the insurance market for NSmen in the 70s. Now talk cock when he can no longer game the system.

what's the BIG deal when PE can be rigged in the sense that the director of a company quit to become it's auditor...
TT cannot qualify as a candidate in the first place...




In reality, the nation have been providing welfare state benefits (juz because of one party rule system) to leeches aka papees leeching on the system. These leeches aka papees wasting nation's time and resources and etc every single second of the Mother Earth's day. By some unfortunate default, we as a nation have to put food on table and tonnes of $$$ for these leeches...


The country needs the government (employees of the public) to work for the country.
Can these leeches aka papees become self reliant? Get a job and be prepared to work hard
at least for once in a lifetime. Stop Leeching on the system.





FUCK PAP, FUCK PAP, FUCK PAP.........
MAY PAPEES, CRONIES N FAMILIES BURN ETERNALLY IN HELLS.........
MAJULLAH SINGAPURA.........
GOD BLESS SINGAPORE..............
REMEMBER to

VOTE papees OUT



do yrself, yr forefathers and yr generations to come, a favor, a service and a long-awaited justice










iamhere says a lot about this:"The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those[/COLOR] LEECHES who would not.”

1. TKL was part of the "establishment" - and profitted ( NTUC Income's Investment-Linked Policies,.."unlimited upside,..limited downside",..he used to tout on national media, b4 the crisis,...) then, until he hurt some bigger egos above.

2. COE - profits to Car Dealers , who trade them,..and fluffs the market,...the bigger suckers,..usuay ends up being the common road user. Forget about "controlling road congestion" with this instrument. It's all about making money

Bro.
We should welcome any good things from people who belong to pappy in the past.
They know the system inside.
Like buying a football player of the opponent, and get info about the opponent strategy and way of doing things.

Tip of the iceberg is right. If the tender system is not administered well , it becomes another wayang. Connections count.
