Well we have always said to bring down the cost of living etc, etc! And we could be the last to come out of it like Japan, took them 10 – 12 years! Brace yourselves people.
our govt must sue them if they anyhow say! lol…
Will the some old man now says that “there is a conspiracy to do us in” again ?
So what if “Singapore the worst performer in Asia” if our gahmen is still the highest performer in term of salary and perks in the whole universe” ! Any alien from outer space want to dispute that ?
Even if the economy could decline 100 per cent, will the government really care after all they are so apathetic when unprecedented billions lost and don’t even question it. If economy lost 10%, just squeeze the balls of the citizens by 10% harder and the government will recoup those loss. Not that we don’t know how our government works. We can look forward to more bullshit from government to tax more from the citizens. Anyone want to guess what’s next for money-spinner. Increase COE to improve car ownership ? Anymore ?
Yes, agree. Gahmen must sue; cannot let them anyhow say things! Otherwise our reputation goes down the gutters.
We are the best, world best – always.
Just look into the Guinness Book of Records – how many tops do we have?
Highest-paid politicians in the whole wide world!
oops…the highest paid ministars and the worst performing economy. I simply don’t see the correlation…
money money money….isn’t funny in our minister’s world
hey Daniel,
money spinning ideas:
1) sue people can rake in big bucks also, but must make sure that other person got deep pocket lah.
2) Newater can make sewage water into drinking water.
3) create a health (wadever) scare, fear will drive people to go an extra mile to protect themselves (H1N1 flu, thermometers sell like hotcakes). sweet!
i wonder which industry is next on the wheel of fortune.
This idea of sueing people for what they say , makes Singapore a laughing stock worldwide , and confirms peoples ideas of the country.
