1) Because we have an "extra-ordinary" gahmen
2) Because they are trying to figure out which department owns the responsibility
3) Because that's when Citigroup, UBS and Merrill Lynch will become profitable again
4) Because that's when MM's "extra-talented" grandson will return from his studies
5) Because Elections is coming so people must vote PAP for another 5 years
6) Because Casino will be operational by then ...
worst case of recovery 5-6 years leh.
3 years will be fast. other than china, i think all other countries aiming for 3 years. some more ambitious one will aim for 1 or 2 years, but see what happens...
usualy aim for more, so if recover faster, look more seh, recover later, not too bad..
Can recover ok liao, i thot forever cannot recover, then me pub very cham liao....last time can chop ang mo, now ang mo also no come liao...local cannot chop

anyone who dares to predict the time of recovery is very brave.

If economy bad, we all suffer.
If economy good, does not seems that our pay increase.
So, economy good or not good, still at our disadvantages.

whats the use of gaining too much experience?

What is the indicator that people are looking at to say recovery is here ?
Exports / housing sale / GDP growth ?
Countries / Region ?
All these statistics comes at different timing. By the the time all these statistic is green, its actually just a reconfirmation which means once again its on highnsight.
in the worse case scenerio, even if the economy recover it will be dogged by protectionism. In that case, singapore will even take longer time to recover. singapore thrive on globalisation, protectionsim will hurt singapore.
Our financial sector will probably need 5yr or decades to recover. So those days where lotsa expats pump up rental and private property prices days are probably gone forever.
if we can lose 100b literality overnight which took us decades to accumulate
do u think we can recover in 2 ~ 5 years wen money is even more difficult to make?

I believe we will see the economy recovering well and on the uptrend about mid 2010
normally i buy assets during times of downturn, they could be cheaper.

I vote for you. I believe people are tired of bad news. A few good news will start lifting things up and give people the optimism they need. Shares will recover faster even though the actual figures from businesses may not be as good as expected, people will not care about about those figures as much then.

Because Singapore is an export oriented country. With the global economic crisis surfaces and particularly in America where the Americans hesistant to spend on consumer products, no doubt that the world economic would remain stagnant for a period of time until the American’s banks resume their lending policies.
Alternatively, the chinese people in Mainland China should be encourage to spend to stimulate the economic domestically and if possible to spend on foreign goods which offer value for money and quality products.
