like that next election we will pay and pay moreOriginally posted by caramon.:How often do you see elderly work in other countries? Whereas in singapore, elderly have many job opportunities :
1. As a cleaner in kopitiam or food court.
2. Self employment as a taxi driver.
3. As a dish washer.
In America, I realise the problem of older workers getting jobs is far worse that in Singapore. I saw very few old folks working in America - they are mostly sitting in parks or playing with their grand children. I guess they do that because they are unable to find a job.
In contrary, we see many old folks in Singapore working as cleaners and at MacDonalds. We should be thankful that in Singapore even old folks can find jobs.
In America, old folks are jobless and sitting around doing nothing. It is obvious the American government is unable to solve the structural unemployment problem and are unable to redesign jobs for older workers. These old folks in America must be suffering without an income and spending so much time in the park when they should be working.
I thought the goverment in american give them allowance every month.. That why they could relax and take care of their grandchildren..instead of -_- slogging their life away even at the age of 60 to 70 plusOriginally posted by caramon.:How often do you see elderly work in other countries?

Aiyah, Spore's land area so small; of course very easy to manage the country!Originally posted by caramon.:As the MM has told us numerous times, these talented people could be in the private sector earning far higher salary.
Singaporeans should consider themselves lucky to have such great leaders to guide them. However, not many appreciate the brilliance of our leaders..
