Playing second fiddle to foreigners
-
Let's go all the way i say, i'm pretty sure we could get some pretty good foreigner ministers from India and China for half the price we're paying our ministers now.
Let's pay Bill Gates and Warren Buffett the Minister Mentor salary to mentor our ministers, pretty sure they have the foresight too for that.
They like foreigners so much because they can't feel the pain. Let's see them take a little of their own medicine.

Btw, clerks do have reservist, it depends on the manpower staffing requirements of MINDEF
I don't mind being called back to do office work. somemore got excuse to do a kit exchange for the new number 4, which I happen to like.

Seriously, I have higher hopes for LHL. I do think he's good, but he's overshadowed by the fact that his dad is LKY and his party is PAP.
It's definitely a more stressful task for him to handle this job. And so far, he's handling it quite well.
Give him a few more years.
Please he has no leadership skill always tangent off on important issued. You did not elect a Nice Guy....to run a country.

what are you trying to say?
or you can't understand that if i do not like some of the assholes in the opposition, i am not allowed to detest the asshole in power too?
if you think like that, you're part of the problem and will never be part of the solution
btw.. remember i've repeated this ad nauseum: your enemy's enemy may not be your friend

I concur, Bear. He has done much more shit on people to benefit himself, he is such a heartless, useless PM ever in Singapore history so far.
I can't believe it that one can say he is doing no bad, omg!!
LHL for anybody with sensibility knows he simply has no PM calibre. He is where he is because of his dad. Think may be he is better off if he goes be a lecturer.

I think this guy wants to do something good, its some old fogey that won't allow him to.
Plus his cabinet isn't his own people. He does not wield enough power to overwrite yet. But I'm not ready to take the risk to give him a chance. 4 years and I'm gone.
And stop trying to be the goodguy badguy kind of person. It won't work and it only contradicts yourself.
The truth hurts, really. Be it without or with the father I believe he still is not that capable to be our PM. Nobody contradicts himself herself here, it is a matter of the truth hurts, hahahha -
your enemy's enemy may not be your friend, but they are still a valuable tools if used right.....
-
LHL might not be as capable as most like him to b or think of....
but i will choose him anytime compare to those across the strait....
than again i like lau goh alot more.... too bad 14yrs can be too short .... even for a seat warmer...
actually, i would have love to see the late Mr Ong as PM instead..... too bad.. life aint abt wat we want sometime...
-
Late Mr Ong passed away too soon. Sad! He is the most respected PAP minister in our time.

I would not really put GCT up there in terms of policies but at least he has some leadership.

comparing 6.5million to 3.5 million, new singaporeans are 1st class citizen now. So the advertisement are in fact serving the first class citizens, rather than the 2nd class ones, who are not talented enough to move elsewhere.

That is the only way to save Singapore, preserve our jobs and protect our culture.
The current shit continues, Singapore in ten years will be totally destroyed and flooded with foreigners. Morale of our children, identity will be destroyed.
We have to vote out PAP in next elections.
Use your brain lah, is the education policy on the primary and secondary level here fine? It is workable, we need to change the tertiary system to something more independent. We need to create our own MNCs to outcompete foreign MNCs for our local talents. -

I think we just vote for the opposition party and let the PAP ministers lose their job than they will feel the pain

I absolutely agree with you. They are like products, expensive does not mean it is effective or perform its best to serve the purpose.

I don't think they will feel any pain and will just set the system up so that they will win the next election. -
actually an enemy's enemy can do one wonder.
