Let us see govt ministers doing work!
-
We mostly see the govt leaders performing (such as attending opening ceremoniesmmaking speeches in functions,etc).Ministers are not actors or actress.They need not publicity to earn money.So will our media please show govt leaders doing their work?
-
Well said. It is time for ministers to be more like Dr. Goh Keng Swee - do more and talk less.
-
I always tell my friends anything not happy, go and instruct their MPs that they want their biddings done.
I mean TELL and not ask. WE are their employers.
Even if its things like cannot find jobs or unfair treatment at jobs or sons unfairly treated at army, anything under the sun that you feel you want to instruct your MP to do.
Make the MPs busy.
Let me repeat again...
WE are the MASTERS of the MPs. They should do our biddings! -
If the people are the employer of the MPs, the people must be lousy employer.
Firstly, they have no control of the huge salary that the employee are collecting.
Secondly, the performance of the employee are not assessed at all.
Thirdly, the employer suffered in silence for the stupid mistake made by the employee.
Fourthly, the employee can take a few month of leave at any time and still collect the fat salary.
Lastly, the employer cannot even fired the employee. -

And when you see them on TV, they'll be telling us that increase in costs of whatever is NECESSARY and a global thing....
Same old stories.... -
They always don't seem to be doing anything a few weeks after elections, then 6 months before the next, they go into overdrive.
-
They shake too many aunties hands.
After removing the fishy smell, time to shake the goal clubs.
Now, you have gained a pay rise.
You will be busy seeing the bank account GROW this week.
Where got time to worry about the 66.6% pathetic peasants who always complained ??? -

But it's true they are civil servant... which means they are citizen's servant. -
where are the people like lionnoisy and oxford mushroom? why haven't they come in to give lame excuses in support of the MPs inefficiency yet?

We should adopt a wait and see attitude for now. Ceremonial duties ARE afterall part of a minister's job actually
However, let's not rag on the ministers just yet. There are new faces among the team and they deserve leeway for now.
You can always judge them at the next elections.
At least first-timers Khaw Boon Wan and Tharman Sharmugaratnam are not doing too badly.
And it's always natural for people to sweep the 'hard work' under the media glare of 'ribbon-cutting' to claim that people aren't doing enough. We almost never ever notice the good work done by select individuals anyway, even in private organisations. -
By right,ministers should be very busy ppl.They shouldn't spend too much time on ceremonial 'duties'.
-
Unfortunately, this is the sad stereotyping of govt organisations who feel the urge to invite parliamentary secretaries and big-shot ministers to grand ceremonies as GOH. Schools and GLCs tend to adopt this silly approach when one can easily request for an alternative person, example a senior ex-alumini of the school or a retired former board member of a GLC.Originally posted by PRP:By right,ministers should be very busy ppl.They shouldn't spend too much time on ceremonial 'duties'.
Why they prefer to 'glorify' these civil servants is truly beyond me. -
I don't get to see other countries leaders or presidents ''always''going around cutting ribbons. Only singapore leaders are doing this.Originally posted by BillyBong:Unfortunately, this is the sad stereotyping of govt organisations who feel the urge to invite parliamentary secretaries and big-shot ministers to grand ceremonies as GOH.
