To me to settle the debate for CECA you don't need 10hr debate that settle NOTHING. What we need is facts and data to prove S'poreans benefit from CECA.

To do this we need to compare BEFORE and AFTER CECA numbers:

1. Is the cost of living more affordable after CECA is implemented compared with BEFORE CECA?

2. If govt claim CECA creates jobs, is it easier for S'pore graduates/non graduates to get jobs after  CECA compared with BEFORE?

3. Has unemployment rate gone down after CECA?

4. Has the number of Singaporeans displaced to lower end jobs decreased since CECA compared with before?

5. Has relative poverty among Singaporeans declined as after CECA compared with BEFORE?

6. Has the % of Singaporeans in information sector increased after CECA?

Actually Hazel.Poa of PSP ask for all this data...so the debate can be constructive.

Once we look at the data we will know the impact of CECA.



They are wasting our time by claiming they can prove something is true without the relevant data.
