Wind30 Turbocharged April 27, 2012 Share April 27, 2012 (edited) I am quite shocked how high it is... we complain a lot about singapore but imagine 1 in 4 people are out of jobs... Spain is not small right? One of the reason given by a lot of articles is that the spain property bubble burst in 2008... I hope singapore don't suffer the same fate.... For young people entering the job market, it is like 40% unemployment.... crazy. Edited April 27, 2012 by Wind30 ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonTan 2nd Gear April 27, 2012 Share April 27, 2012 If the father passed down the instruction manual to his son, and the rest of the disciples practice the kung fu unitedly, then all will be well inside the forbidden temple. If some disciples decided not to listen to the son and practice their own invented KungFu....then it will cause mayhem to the pugilistic world. I think singaporen is on the verge of something big n exciting in the next few years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icedbs Turbocharged April 27, 2012 Share April 27, 2012 These 24.4% has unemployment benefits. I can't remember how much it is, I think around 70% of their last gross salary for the first 180 days. From then on, it will be 60% 180 days is about half a year. Not bad getting 70% of previous drawn salary for being unemployed half a year! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Singapore should also publish a U6 unemployment rate like the US, which tracks "marginally attached workers and those working part-time for economic reasons."

Sosaria Twincharged April 27, 2012 Share April 27, 2012 http://www.matthewbennett.es/11832/lazy-sp...ivated-chinese/ Spain people have always been seen as lazy. Yup, it's a stereotype, but... Southern europe, countries like spain, portugal, italy, are seen as "lazy". While northern europe - with the exception of france - countries like germany, norway, sweden, finland, are seen as frugal and hardworking. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
