Then higher property price may also not benefit everyone. ![Rotfl Rotfl](https://sgtalk.net/images/smilies/Animated/rotl_s.gif)
Property price can rise uncontrollably but CPF rate can remain stagnant for donkey years and cannot rise..

GST is a poor man tax, how can it be good for the poor?
Even poor will need to pay GST.

CPF money is for retirement and high interest is to fight against inflation. Only the govt is finding excuse not to raise interest rates for CPF.

Singapore is the most democratic country by voting and make believed front, most socialistic country by policy on paper and definitely a dictatorship by rule in all angles. Lol
Told you they say up CPF interest is bad. But up CPF min sum is a must to fight inflation. Up gst is a must to help the poor. Estate tax is difficult and complicated (but estate tax has been there until just before Mrs lky passed away, so why so difficult to reinstate it now?)... Up civil service and politicians pay by few percentage points is justified but up a couple of dollars to help low income in social welfare or suggesting min income for them is not the right thing to do ..
By now everyone should know the map has been wrong. This is actually North Korea and Kim is just running a side show following our supreme leader's commands. Lol
