  What type of Gahmen menthod is this?

  and some people actually believes the purpose is to help the poor.

  I wouldn't be surprised if some did...
  
  ...not to mention brokenheartedly that the nation they have toiled for has abandoned them.

  There is only one reason for such pathetic wages: government policy. Where is the minimum wage? Other developed countries have it, why not Singapore?

  The next thing you will likely hear from those proPAPs is that these low wage earners REFUSE to upgrade themselves...
  these cleaners should go study and become engineers, biomedical researchers and such.,....
  

  What to do.....this is something that Sillypore is good at...rewarding the rich and giving the poor just enough to stay on but no real future....this is the economics of the world....not everyone can make it...just like in a bull run, some will have to lose even though it seems that many of us are making a killing in the market...People fail to realize where the money comes from when times are good...Some people out there would have had to be burned....rises in home prices are artificial..
  
  If everyone was a doctor or engineer or lawyer earning thousands a month...then who would clean up our estates or sweep teh streets....at least they deserve a pay rise of a few hundred, not just $100....sigh...pathetic is more like it....this is the way that rich, affluent boomtown sillypore is going...watch the signs...it will fall flat on its face one day...and that's why many of us have gotten out of this little shit hole....
  
  Not paying the poor enough is one thing....Overpaying themselves and attracting so called FTs is something I will never fathom...so we learn what the masters have taught us.....be FTs ourselves and plunder other countries...
