He said adjusting wages upwards to meet rising prices would only result in a "price-wage spiral" and Singaporeans should look at the bigger picture.

His salary increase is justified.. Our salary increase must look at bigger picture.. hur.gif

 

No solutions offered. Looks like his job is very easy; just spout such lines.

Just like what others have done before.

 

Mr Ng: "Can the opposition bring down the price of oil?"

 

Mr Lee: "... instead of spending my time thinking of what policy is right for Singapore, I'm going to spend all my time, I have to spend all my time thinking, what is the right way to fix them..."

 

Feel free to contribute more examples. [lipsrsealed]

He said, "So what the opposition said about no checks and balances, I think it's very apt...since we're in the banking and financial district, no checks and balances...is nonsense isn't it?

 

"If the PAP government had not listened to your views, cared for your welfare, improved your lives, you'd have kicked us out long ago. Isn't that right? But your vote is the most powerful check for any government, PAP or opposition.

 

"Your vote is the most powerful check to make sure that only good, capable, honest people with integrity become your Member of Parliament."

 

Dr Ng also called the Workers' Party a Wayang (or Theatre) Party - as it only wants to get Singaporeans riled up by focusing on criticisms and not solutions.

 

He said, "This is a Wayang Party, WP, not Workers' Party...Do they have solutions? Can they bring the price of oil down? Can they stop factories from pulling out of Singapore and find you jobs? Can they bring down the price of rice, a loaf of bread, a cup of coffee?

 

looks like many things he can't even do it

I see this as a warning sign, a wake up call.

 

if we Singaporean cannot accept the reality of low pay, then FT of all education levels will be approved to enter and rape us.

 

I must recite the below time after time to remember my existence here..

[smallcry][smallcry][smallcry]

 

We, the citizens of Singapore,

pledge ourselves as one united people,

regardless of race, language or religion,

to build a democratic society

based on justice and equality

so as to achieve happiness, prosperity and

progress for our nation.

 

the words i highlight in red are just a total farce [rolleyes]

 

the words in blue apply to men in white [lipsrsealed]. and only to them...

Our joker gahmen are alway lecturing us, say we complacent, putting word in our mouth, asking us to think from their point of view. Then like that, we need them for what.. if they cannot see things from our point of view.. then they jolly keep their big mouth shut..
