Dear Careless PAP Ministers

"Stop patronizing us" with so many lame excuses- quoting Indranee

Please state the Top 10 Areas of Expenditure

And 5 things have you done to manage these expenditure

in the last 7 Years

Why do we need 5 Mayors and 80 PAP Ministers?

if they cannot do it well to contain the gap. then they should get out and let other do it. maybe we can have a better way where they have oversight. still dare to up and up the cost of living. Not the public servant at all. where is the motive in serving the citizen

This 4G is driving BMW into the Ditch. Every country and every company will face funding gaps but often temporary. However, your GST is forever here to stay and worse never reduce.

Did 3G handle badly will lots of cleaning up and now, are you sure you can manage Singapore for the next 10 years?

The  4G ministers and MPs are not tested, and thence it is very hard to pass judgement....... Clapping

Other countries' problem is that they like to cut government spending first before raising taxes.

Our country's problem is that our government likes to raise taxes first before cutting spending. And when they raise taxes they have to go and do it in the most hacked manner.

The reserves were built up by the pioneer , merdeka and senior citizens. Now that they are old and probably have not much reserves financially, the raising of 1%GST tax to 8% will impact heavily on these group of people. The younger ministers do not have a feel of the ground.

They are living in their ivory towers. Election time coming next year so must show them walking the grounds. Otherwise no show at all.

The problem is GST doesn't really solve this gap, in fact, it exacerbates it. It makes doing business in Singapore more expensive while productivity here didn't increase at all.

GST affects everyday living when you buy food and basic household goods. How long can the assurance package last 365 days for the whole of 5 years? Thinking

This is absurd! Why use only GST as the only sole means when there are other ways to fund the gaps? HK does not have GST and no maids levy for collection to compare with.
