Cabinet restructuring

Taken from National day rally speech 2010

There are many pieces to this story of immigration and foreign workers and talent and competition and so on and we need to draw all these threads together to manage them holistically and make sure that Singaporeans benefit and the impact of these policies is well-managed. We do not have a ministry to do this, but we will set up a Population and Talent Division in the Prime Minister’s Office. It is like Public Service Division, PSD, which is also in the Prime Minister’s Office with a Permanent Secretary at the ministry level. PMO will cover it, but I will delegate this and the minister in charge of the Population and Talent Division will be Mr Wong Kan Seng and he will coordinate the work of Home Affairs, of MOM, of MTI, of MCYS and make sure that all our policies stick together and the implementation works out well and everything runs okay.

Just a funny thought

Had this funny thought in my mind. Maybe the SPF will come up with something like this.

Minimum wage not possible lah.

We are the 4th richest in the WORLD!!!

Have been rather busy this few weeks trying to finish off some work. Found it really amusing after reading this article on straits times. What are they trying to tell Singaporean with the article, that they are really rich and stop complaining?
Come on, my bank account stays the same... hummm maybe a small minority are REALLY REALLY rich in Singapore.

Singaporean and minimum wage

Looks like minimum wage will not be happening anytime soon in Singapore. The lower income group in Singapore will have to keep training and upgrade themselves to keep moving forward and hope that the rising cost of living will not make their wage increment illusional.

HDB bubble

The HDB price is ever rising and it has been a major concern for young Singaporean eager to own a home. Will the new policies in place be able to stop the HDB bubble? I like to cartoon "UP" by pixar whereby the old man flew away in his house on balloons to pursue his dream.

I hope you like the artwork here.
