The MIW are pro-business, but now they suddenly show empathy towards the workers who form the largest group of voters for the coming GE.

Walkabouts are tiring. Depends on your age, you either get dehydrated or a heat stroke. Why MP cannot see doctor?

The government will probably help you to find a job and if you reject the job (s) offered, the payouts will cease?

All these money come from taxpayers. Your type of face... don't waste our money lar.

They are already doing that as per existing. Cleaner security guard etc. If hardworking can become cleaning and security guard supervisor

4k makes sense

Obviously the government had been in touch with the ground and listened to the feedback.

Last time when it was merely $500, it was not enough to learn anything of value. It benefitted commerical schools which ran stupid course like How to use your smartphone, how to download and use e-commerce Apps like Shopee and Lazada.

What could you do with $500? In the end the SFC was untouched.

Not all dialect groups are the same. The Hakkas are reputed for being stringy.

Thr Hokkiens are slightly more generous.

Lawrence Wong proved that the most generous so far are the Hainanese.

Elections during Sept school holidays ?

We have to thank Chee Soon Juan for speaking up for us which benefits us in the long run. Time to vote for him.

NTUC is doing that. A lot of their unionized workers only have primary or lower secondary school education. If you think RK or Nicole Rebecca Seah can find them a job in..

Oh wait.

There will be peepur trying to game the system.

Someone even said in edmw he will ask his mother to take up some random course, he will do the assignments, and every month song song gao Jurong, they collect $3000... for 2 years.

They didn't understand what Lawrence Wong said. Multiversal already corrected him, which left me with nothing to say there.

No harm giving him one term to let him prove himself.

Trouble is that the oppies refused to vote for him and I believe it was because of Chiam See Tong.

Dr Chee is a serious man who will do what he wants to do without saga. But the oppies preferred RK and Nicole Rebecca Seah wor. 

And everytime I mentioned RK his supporter KillChoy will get his panty in a mighty twist. He sent me 36 ALERTS... I don't know how many hours of sleep he lost but it only took me 5 seconds to delete all of them.

Unveil by When?

If you were earning 2k and the new job pays that, what is your problem?

Did the government ask someone who earned 10k like those in Lazada to go and wash dishes in a restaurant and he says, it's not enough money for me because I have a condo, a car, a Dobermaine..
