“If we reject foreigners, our economy will collapse, but it’s about how we can trust, build on foundations... and always make sure that when there is success, there is always an element for the workers to share,” he said.
He was also asked about NTUC’s aborted Income-Allianz deal, especially the criticism from former NTUC Income chief executive Tan Suee Chieh, who has raised questions on the issue in a letter that has been circulating online.
Mr Ng said he had already addressed the issue at a Jalan Kayu rally on April 27.

The bullshit and why:
1. Claiming NTUC work = strong constituency service
Why bullshit: NTUC mainly focuses on macro-level labor policies and union-company negotiations. Running a ward and managing local municipal, personal, and ground issues (e.g., drainage, estate maintenance, daily resident problems) is very different. There's little direct correlation.
2. Implying NTUC track record = guaranteed local benefits
Why bullshit: Many Singaporeans already feel NTUC has drifted into a pro-business organization, not a true workers' union. So saying that NTUC experience benefits "ordinary" residents sounds detached from ground realities, especially for those struggling with cost-of-living issues.
3. Portraying himself as a "new" or "fresh" leader
Why bullshit: Ng Chee Meng lost in Sengkang GRC in 2020 and has been politically sidelined since. Repackaging himself without addressing why voters rejected him before ignores real public sentiment.
4. Overpromising skills upgrading and jobs
Why bullshit: SkillsFuture and other NTUC-linked programs have had mixed success, with frequent complaints about mismatched training and job market realities. Residents need real job placement, not vague promises of "upskilling."
5. Not acknowledging PAP’s existing track record in Jalan Kayu
Why bullshit: If PAP’s local governance had already been so good, there wouldn't be a need to sell NTUC experience as an extra booster. This quietly suggests problems exist but doesn't admit them openly.

Confirmed he will lose Jalan Kayu for the PAPpies
Really Kayu for the PAPpies to bring him in after the NTUC-Allianz saga
Already by himself alone, he’s very unpopular
The way he talks is so girly
Compare him with Andre, no fight
Tampines, Punggol, West Coast-Jurong West GRCs, Jalan Kayu & Tampines Changkat SMCs can be taken!! THIS IS THE TIME!

If we, born Singaporeans reject to serve 2 years NS, Ng Chee Meng can never become an army General.
Singapore's defence will collapse.
It's your rights to ask him.

The PAP created this high dependence on foreign workers.
Now use this dependence to threaten us to vote for them.

Just to add to what i said above, NCM remarks also shows this
1. PAP priority is to import more foreigners to grow the economy.
2. The problems.caused by their policies will be borne by Singaooreans.
3. Their priority is not solving our problems.
4. They will throw you some temporary relief if you cant cole
But the problems like housing cost will get worse each yr.

Under NCM, NTUC is corporatized. Instead of a cooperatives, which it should be, it is now profit oriented.
Just from membership collections alone from at least 1.4 million memberships at $9 each amounting to more than 14 million each month, prices at NTUC supermart is nowhere cheaper than Seng Shiong or ABC stores. How can this be ?
Is this fair to members given the meagre discounts ? Members are short changed in my opinion.
NTUC is indeed very profitable, now as another Government link company. As such we now know where it's profit goes to and why NCM is keen on selling out INCOME to the pleasure of LHL (and gang who are supportive of the deal).

Furthermore, MAS keeping a very strong SGD for NTUC fp to import goods and services cheaply but such profits were not passed down to consumers.
Where's the money goes?

Since when have locals reject foreigners?
The people are not the ones who stick and collect levies on foreign talent.

In last 5 years, he was NTUC union chief, he imported foreigners to replace Singaporeans workers.
Yet, he survived on the job for so long
