Let me put this in another perspective, you can pay $1 or $1bil and they can still do nothing. So find people who really want to serve, not those after the big prize money.

Of course the very talented are well paid out there hence the current pay system. BUT many are not from private sector instead they were drafted from army and civil service. Which then begs the question of whether they are truly worth the salt. Perhaps only after they are in true private sector we should then employ then and no GLC related so call private entities.

Going back to the topic of inflation. Singapore is a small country hence a price taker. Likewise our economic growth is largely determined by global economic condition; there is only so much priming a govt can do and it's ridiculous to see the same garden or walkway refurbished every 3 years before any signs of wear and tear.

The only possible tactical move a govt can do to help with inflation is to lower taxation, levies - stuff such as gst, petrol tax, utilities levies, property tax, stamp duties etc.

Howlian, want to sanction Russia.   

India is a Quad member under US also never sanction .   

In Asia, only SK and Japan do that.

looks like the opposite is happening for the last statement
yes to get the right people for the right job is important not to get someone who only after money, creating various mayor post just to earn more money, for e.g.
anyway, enough saying.

Inflations like these are really depressing. When people says SGD is so easy to earn and the currency is much more higher, but they don't know is that the gov is raising the living costs. We all citizens some more have to pay all the stupid taxes. 

That's why there are more and more sites like this https://bit.ly/3s2w0ay that is getting the youngsters to try out so that they can earn more.

If you think SG is really Low income tax rates

but they tax it back in other ways ie levies, COE, GST, tariffs, surcharges . . . 

At the end PAP take the whole chicken back

And yet, Singapore Govt raised GST

Hurting Poor Singaporeans with double whammy

Why like that one?



ALL their  Bull Sheet lah

GST to help the poor
But there is no definition of the poor.
Is it only the ultra- poor? 

GST for Skills Courses
But courses cannot build any skills.
So why over-spend 9% on this?

GST for better Healthcare
But we already forced to pay higher premiums starting 2020
Are we going to get Ward A and full GP coverage now?

They always talk cock but NEVER any results

Why do we need 5 Mayors and 80 PAP Ministers?
