"We cry everyday": S'poreans roll their eyes at PM’s tears during Labour Day speech

They are not malays either.

How does Halimah Yacob wish to be remembered? As a Malay or Indian woman? She is living proof that an Indian may be transformed into a Malay by a single flip of the PAP Prata. LOL!

Crying without tears is like ejaculating without semen!

I wonder how many men it would take to fill up that tanker?

 

[True Believer]

If you are 1 of these 60,000 business owners, would you believe that the PAP ministers deserve their obscene wages?

The current pap is too out of touch of ordinary citizens. The day LKY passed away is the day Singapore sinks to 3rd world country.

This clown will be remembered for the saying of if cannot afford chicken buy fish. Even her own comrades must be facepalming so hard when she made that stupid statement.

Fake News Alert?????​

2025 was not an outlier. This year’s figures are simply the latest in a pattern that has played out consistently over the past few years.

Year	Total Employment Growth	Resident	Non-resident
2023	+88,400	+4,900	+83,500
2024	+44,500	+8,800	+35,700
2025	+55,500	+11,600	+43,900

Source: Singapore’s Ministry of Manpower
In each of the past three years, non-resident employment growth has significantly outpaced resident growth. In 2023, a strong year for total employment growth, residents accounted for less than 6% of all new jobs.
Even in 2025, a year that saw a notable increase in resident employment, non-residents still accounted for close to four in five of all new jobs created.

The reasons for this shift are partly structural, and the Ministry of Manpower has been fairly direct about why.
In its Q4 2025 Labour Market Report, MOM noted that Singapore’s resident labour force participation rate is already high, leaving limited scope for further expansion of the local workforce.
For those aged 25 to 64, the figure stands at 85.9%, one of the highest in the world. Most people who can work and want to work are already in the workforce—there simply are not many residents left on the sidelines to bring in, which naturally limits how much further resident employment can expand.
At the same time, businesses continue to face manpower needs, whether for growth, replacement, or sector-specific demands, that cannot be fully met by the resident pool alone. Non-resident workers help fill these gaps, particularly in industries that struggle to attract or retain local workers.
Looking ahead, the Ministry of Manpower expects these trends to persist.
For 2026, resident employment is projected to grow at a similar or slightly slower pace than in 2025.

I find her statement very funny.

A Malaysian or Vietnamese can afford to earn a low Singaporean wage and send back to their shit home countries and they will be relatively well off.

A Singaporean is stuck earning Singaporean wage and spending in Singapore entirely.

So a SGD$1,000 is very different for a Singaporean vs other Asians.

No wonder the Malay undergrad who converted to Christianity during my NUS days was completely ostracised by his community and disowned by his own parents.

Fucker talk about COE increasing?
Now buying car become a necessity?

Any S'porean who believes that multi-millionaire PAP ministers are in office to "serve" us are severely deluded. They are in office purely for the obscene wages on offer.

Crying is only signs of being a Human, with Natural EMOTIONS based upon joys and adversities, and courage/sacrifices made by others overcoming adversities. more so a LEADER whom governs Millions of lives under his care.

Only AI and the insignificant nobody me do not cry....

AI has NO ABILITY to cry, as while it may write volumes on Human emotions, it DOES NOT EXPERIENCE LIFE. AI is just a set of methodical, clinical and cold mathematical algorithms.

I do not cry as I have no more tears left to shed tears over adversities, or even joy when I had long pragmatically calculated the outcome of consequences.

INSTEAD, I had learnt from one of our great Founding Fathers - the late Dr Goh Keng Swee, who instead of crying over being booted out of Malaysia to survive on a small piece of rock called Singapore, he simply ROLLED UP HIS SLEEVES, SWEATED it out with PRAGMATIC social and economic policies to UPLIFT Singapore to what it is today, with the other founding fathers and EVERY Singapore Citizen back then.....

I have no more tears left, but only sweat, intelligence and prepared for hard work, to OVERCOME daily challenges, to survive and put food on the table for myself, loved ones and society. In a way, I am fortunate as my responsibilities are only to a few, unlike Leaders whom have MILLIONS of LIVES under their charge and responsibilities, whom failure or resignation is NOT an option, as long as there is no one BETTER to take such responsibilities, govern and UPLIFT such lives....

If you are crying everyday, then it is time to rolled up your sleeves, THINK deeply why you are where you are today, acknowledge mistakes made and WHAT WILL IT TAKES to be where you want to be tomorrow....just do not think too far, at least not yet, but to SIMPLY put food on the table for yourself, loved ones, family, friends and society....WE are in this battle TOGETHER as a Nation, sworn daily during our formative years thru our sacred National Pledge, for survival in these rough times.....


....

As for crying over COE prices....c'mon, Singapore is just TOO SMALL to accommodate BOTH private cars and POPULATION. It is either we enjoy low or no COE, while the rest of fellow citizens are SQUEEZED into even smaller and higher floors pigeon holes than now.

We still have an amazing transportation system, although not perfect, but it does serves citizens well, as well as even private car rental firms for big families to rent an Alphard or something smaller for smaller families, to move around even to Malaysia for weekends or special occasions.
