Trying to evade giving a clear answer from all angles means his data cannot be trusted and as a Minister of Manpower, the more he is seen as Unreliable. As thought, it took them so many years to finally give us this answer looks awfully suspicious.

The public is laughing at those pappies who don't even know how to anwser a simple question. Becos they cannot find a reasonable or honest answer. So, they wil find all ways to confuse the questioner.

This was passing around but his quip is more suitable for SM Lee regarding the Open Floodgates, GST and unresolved issue which is perfect. He listen, he knows, he admits but he refuse to undress the topic. He should send it to his own boss.

I also want to know the answer from TSL on the split between citizens and PR for employment data.

Why doesn't he provide a clear answer unless it is in fact bad?
