why quit for doing nothing much & being paid.

Don't forget the perks that come along after the white haired completes his term.

No maybe she got less than that but S$15K monthly salary not really that high and easier to achieve compared to Minister's salary of more than S$100K per month.

Heard though salary reduce but overall higher than before cut because of "extra" if hit performance index.

They all work for money. Talk cock only work for the people. Follow US scale, see how many of them left behind. All cb mouth speak lj wey.

All sit in parliament just to enjoy aircond, free tea break and sleep.

Waste so much time talk about opposition, instead of major issue.

PAP lost its trust, all about money

How to follow the US when they dictate the world economy? When the Arabs in 1970's raised the prices of crude oil, initially they enjoyed a windfall as tons of USD flowed to them and they became very wealthy. This continued for a few years but inexorably, like water that finds it's own level, these Arab nations wealth flowed back to the US, because they had no choice as everything they import are in US Dollars and being countries that export mostly oil but import most of their needs, their wealth flowed back.

Singapore being a little similar, may enjoy some initial gains as the Sing Dollars get stronger, but as we see today, it is shortlived and eventually will level back to USD = S$1.60-S$1.80 like before.

Want to follow US....no way lah, no exports no agriculture, no land.
