People say other countries esp the European countries's pension funds are so satki but look at what one foreigner said! most of the Europeans gladly exchange their pension with sinkies for CPF!
I welcome Mr Anderson to come here to convert his british passport for spore passport and put his money where his mouth is.
He lives in Singapore so he should know what he is talking about.

Why don't you ask him yourself. I'm sure he'll give you a straight and honest answer.
Ang Mohs are the best!!!!

CPF is good only if you have money to put inside. Now sinkies don't have money to put inside where got good.
If you are incapable of earning a decent wage, it's not the fault of the PAP. It's your own fault.
PAP doesn't even have a high minimum wage for a decent wage like other first world countries. It is their fault. The most expensive city has such low wage how can? Yet PAP still doesn't want to do anything about it. Because there is no high minimum wage, the employees can hire FTs with low wages. And then, PAP still want to being in more FTs to compete with sinkies for the low wage. Then there is the NS reservist that makes employees prefer to hire ang mohs. PAP give themselves such high pay yet doesn't care about the low minimum wage for lots of people.
Foreigners create jobs for Singaporeans. If Singapore didn't allow productive foreigners into the country, the overall unemployment rate amongst sinkies would be far higher.
Foreigners create more low wage jobs for sinkies, and this perpetuate the low wage system. As sinkiepore gets more expensive to live in, the low wage would only cause sinkies to get poorer. PAP does nothing to close the rich-poor income gap. It only gives GST offset vouchers.
It is not the government's job to close the rich-poor gap. It is up to the poor to close the rich-poor gap. They need to buckle down and get to work.
The government has cause the rich-poor gap to be so wide in the first place. It is their fault and they should fix it. If the government cannot fix this they should not be the government.
There is nothing to fix. The so called "poor" in Singapore are actually very comfortable by international standards. The wide rich-poor gap in Singapore is a result of the fact that the rich in Singapore are extremely wealthy.
This is because the government encourages hard work and enterprise and rewards those who have made it in life. That's the way it should be. The gold medal always goes to the fastest man in the race not the one who comes last.
