no lor. sometime even criticise their "solutions" lor.
e.g. Last night, PM said that it is not viable for the government to follow in the footsteps of other countries and pump in massive funds into the economy. wth.
if it can work for a big country, sure it can work wonders in a small country like singapore. too stingy to spend money, busy hoarding the money for 2011 GE as carrots then say lor. don't say that the common solution thought up by so many leaders not feasible.
You sure or not?
The last guarantee of bank deposits was done right after, US, EURO and Australia, they will copy over all the policies from the western countries. My friend from MAS even tells me, they have groups of analyst looking at the various economic policy of specific country (e.g. south korean, japan, US, etc). Even our Audit Exemption for smaller companies was copied over from the UK, without thought and consideration as to the different business models between UK and Singapore.
The only types of policies which they can genuninely call their own are those that exploit folks, ERP, COE, HDB, CPF, Excessive Electricity Rates, etc.
You mean they weren't pump priming the economy when they gave out money to Singaporeans?
Isn't this a monetary expansion? Look at the latest statistics for inflation for the month of October 2008, which hovers 6.4%. Excuse me! I thought the whole world economy was in a recession? Then how come inflation is still hovering at 6.4% instead of a negative figure? Sad to say for Singapore it's a stagflation (negative GDP growth coupled with increasing prices and increasing unemployment) and not a recession. Given Singapore's reluctance to have a program of social welfare for the unemployed, I would say our employment rate is extremely rigid, I would even say our natural rate of unemployment would be around 1%, but currenty the unemployment rate is above 2%. I wonder how are these above 1% unemployed going to make ends meet.Rest assured if the economy persist in it's downtrend next year, the government will come up with more fiscal and monetary policies, precisely why the government also brought forward the budget for 2009 to January 2009. Also, haven't they already approved the use of $150 billion worth of reserves to help the economy?

Without his father.. we will just be rickshaw pullers and coolies.. and kampung gias, running around barefoot and shitting in a hut.
80,000 per day should be the right price for such a great leader to lead us.
Being so charitable.. he has already SUBSIDISED his pay for our sake.
We should all offer sacrifice to him every national day.
Let him have the pick of all our virgin girls every full moon.
May he live a long life.. for without him... we shall all be NOTHING !!!
Long live Lee !!!

The following article was printed in 2007, and gave the reasons for the hefty wage increase of up to 60 percent to minister's wages.
Is there any significance for wages to be reduced by any amount as a gesture to "share the pain" with citizens ?
Singapore announces 60 percent pay raise for ministers
by Seth Mydans Published: April 9, 2007
SINGAPORE: How much money does it take to keep a Singapore government minister happy? The government says a million dollars is not enough, and on Monday it announced a 60 percent boost in ministers' salaries, to an average of 1.9 million Singapore dollars, or $1.26 million, by next year.
Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong will see his pay jump to 3.1 million Singapore dollars, five times the $400,000 earned by President George W. Bush.
In this nation where the bottom line truly is the bottom line, the argument goes, you've got to pay to get them and you've got to pay to keep them.
"If we don't do that, in the long term, the government system will slowly crumble and collapse," Defense Minister Teo Chee Hean told reporters last month.
As the minister who oversees the civil service, Teo announced the pay hikes Monday, saying: "We don't want pay to be the reason for people to join us. But we also don't want pay to be the reason for them not to join us, or to leave after joining us."
It is a pay system created in 1994 by Singapore's founder, Lee Kuan Yew, pegging the salaries of government ministers and top civil servants to the money they might earn at the top of the private sector.
Defending the system last month against an unusual public yelp of pain, Lee Kuan Yew painted a horrifying picture of a Singapore governed by ministers who earn no more than ministers anywhere else.
"Your apartment will be worth a fraction of what it is," he said, "your jobs will be in peril, your security will be at risk and our women will become maids in other people's countries."
Singapore has one of the most efficient and corruption-free governments in the world.
It is Asia's second-richest country after Japan, with a gross domestic product per capita of about $31,000, and Lee said it could well afford to pay its leaders top dollar.
The total of the salaries before the increase amounted to 46 million Singapore dollars a year, he said, or 0.13 percent of government expenditure - 0.022 percent of gross domestic product.
Under the government's formula, ministers are to be paid two-thirds of the median of the top eight earners in each of six professions: accounting, law, banking, engineering, multinational companies and local manufacturing.
There has been no public sign of discontent among the men and women who run Singapore, but last month the prime minister noted that they were earning just 55 percent of this benchmark.
"We don't want pay to be the reason for people to join us," Teo said Monday in announcing the pay hikes. "But we also don't want pay to be the reason for them not to join us, or to leave after joining us."
Talk of the impending pay increase drew an outcry here for weeks that included letters to newspapers and an online petition that has collected more than 800 signatures.
The average Singaporean earns something over $2,000 a month, and the government has voiced concern over a widening gap between rich and poor.
The ministerial raise comes three months ahead of a 2 percent increase in the sales tax.
Mohamad Rosle Ahmad wrote in a letter to the editor: "I am sure Enron and Worldcom paid more than top dollar for their top executives, and look where their companies are now - six feet under."
Lee Kuan Yew, whose title is minister mentor, said naysayers like this need a reality check.
"I say you have no sense of proportion; you don't know what life is about," he said last month.
"The cure to all this talk is really a good dose of incompetent government," Lee said. "You get that alternative, and you'll never put Singapore together again."
He presented himself as an example: "A top lawyer, which I could easily have become, today earns 4 million Singapore dollars. And he doesn't have to carry this responsibility. All he's got to do is advise his client. Win or lose, that's the client's loss or gain."
The Straits Times newspaper quoted him as saying his current salary as minister mentor was 2.7 million Singapore dollars.
Money may buy happiness for a government minister, but some Singaporeans suggested that other motivations should also come into play for government service.
"What about other redeeming intangibles such as honor and sense of duty, dedication, passion and commitment, loyalty and service?" asked Hussin Mutalib in the Straits Times' online forum recently.
Carolyn Lim, a prominent writer, suggested in an essay in The Straits Times that Singapore needed a little more heart to go along with its hard head. "Indeed, a brilliant achiever without the high purpose of service to others would be the worst possible ministerial material," she wrote
"To see a potential prime minister as no different from a potential top lawyer, and likely to be enticed by the same stupendous salary, would be to blur the lines between two very different domains."
The minister mentor brushed aside concerns like that.
"Those are admirable sentiments," he said. "But we live in a real world."
