Comfy 1st Gear February 26, 2008 Share February 26, 2008 Make the entire country CBD if they dare, this reduce the need to go to one stupid centralised area to work. It really very fuuny to see everybody rushing to one place for business and rush out when the day is done. We are a very small country, We can have banks, gov offices all over the island, encourage business to operate outside current CBD, eg, have SGX in AMK, MAS office in Woodlands, DBS main office in jurong, Our Court in Changi just beside prison. This would allow a lower but more balance rental cost to operate business accross our small island instead of now, certain area property so high now, yet others low. Make entire country a place for business and leaving, the whole island downtown for fun, not just Orchard area. But saying so much will not happen, all gov ass will not do this, their property values will drop in where they stay now, for their own gain, nobody will propose re-zoning entire country for growth for business and leaving. i see that in HK and NY... it brings colors to the neighborhood... more livable and vibrant... these also ease the jams building up in the CTE and others...

Bluecerato Neutral Newbie February 26, 2008 Share February 26, 2008 Only with this kind of planning, we can growth in term of population,balance up the propety price across whole island, closing up asset and income gap. We seriously need re-zoning, this set of gov will never do it, they have the current plan set 20-30years back, changing now make them lose their asset value which they themselves already planned with growth for themselves over these years in those expensive area now.

Octopus 3rd Gear February 26, 2008 Share February 26, 2008 I felt that its like governing the country as though it is a company. Leverage and squeeze every single drop they can find so as to impress superiors by showing good results. Good CEOs for companies may not be good leaders for the ppl. All the policies implementations is always on "FYI" basis..no say from the ppl..haiz "Help the needies"..we are the needies! Well said! [inline clap0vy.gif] [inline clap0vy.gif] [inline clap0vy.gif] I see 'managers' from different department trying to earn as much as possible, hoping to get high score when appraisal comes so that can get even higher salary....

Kwchan 1st Gear February 26, 2008 Share February 26, 2008 But now, instead of projected Budget deficit of $0.7billion, the government had a surplus of $6.4 billion, leaving the government to face a 'pleasantly embarrassing outcome'. Such a big difference siah Can pass back this 6.4 million to the low & middle income earners It is 6.4BILLION or 10000 peanuts Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meecar Clutched February 26, 2008 Share February 26, 2008 all these points have been brought up time and time again but when the time to exercise sillyporeans rights still many will choose papi remember the last national wayang that occurs every 5 years before the actual day, so many sillyporeans vow for a change but in the end more than 66.6% suddenly forgot when they go into the box I expect history is going to repeat itself once at a watering hole in town one ft a bit drunk spoke the truth the majority of sillyporeans are dumb .. they basically got screwed again and again and keep asking for more why complain about FT and more more complains basically every 5 years we keep asking to be screwed over and over again in the early years many foreigners sympathized with sillyporeans BUT many supporters have given up because the reason is obvious if you cannot get your own house in order do you expect others to help basically we are a lost cause Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nutty 4th Gear February 26, 2008 Share February 26, 2008 http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0,2...5-31037,00.html CHILDCARE mogul Eddy Groves has lost more than $45 million after stock in his company slumped more than 60 percent this morning. The Brisbane-based chain yesterday reported net profit has fallen 42 per cent a result well below analysts' expectations. However, the sell-off today was prompted by concerns Mr Groves, who is the owner of the Brisbane Bullets basketball team, may be forced to sell some of his stock in the company to cover margin loans. Analysts yesterday said they also were concerned about the $1.7 billion level of debt and a major bank is believed to have $600 million of exposure to ABC. ABC has been expanded rapidly to have more than 2300 centres across three continents - including more than 160 in greater Brisbane alone - and yesterday stunned analysts by releasing their results after the market closed and refused to speak directly to the media. Shares were trading down $2.31 at $1.43. ABC's major stakeholder is the Singaporean government investment arm Temasek, with a 12.3 per cent stake, closely followed by investment bank Lazard Asset Management and the Packer family-backed Challenger Financial Services. Former Brisbane City lord mayor Sallyanne Atkinson is the chairman and former Federal MP Larry Anthony is a board member. The company is likely to come under scrutiny from the Australian Securities Exchange for failing to alert shareholders of the larger than expected slump in net profit. ABC shares have been hammered over recent months on concerns ranging from its dilatory capital raisings, a slowdown in the US and hedge fund trading. Revenues for the six months rose 66 per cent from $667.8 million to $1.1 billion. The accounts show revenues included an extra $73.3 million in fees from childcare developers to "support centres during occupancy growth". No such fees were earned in the previous half but ABC did highlight securing a new developers' model last year Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluecerato Neutral Newbie February 26, 2008 Share February 26, 2008 Agree, with is happening over and over again, it would take another 30-40 years later when the first batch of annuity fund to release when one is already 80yrs old to realise the promise of the goodness of it not materialised. By that time too old to vote, likely PAP gone long time with MIW rich & famous and nation suffer. Nobody can promise a fund can be healthy for so many years. Likely in the all coming elections, the PAP would use annuity as bullets, continue vote PAP to safeguard your annuity, they may say.... on the other they continue to make money losing businesses like not body business, bloody sh*t.
