There should be no retirement age for S’pore: MM Lee
- Thread starter GoFlyKiteNow
- Start date
Let's hope he does.When he says no retirement age, he is so obviously thinking about his own comfortable situation. Among other things, he expects to live to a ripe old age, at least 100.
Oh ya, why not start from the GLC and let him walk his talk first. I heard army regulars were asked to go even before 55yo, SIA also has age descrimination practice for certain posts. Recently a forumner criticised PUB for sacking her father reason being he was presumed too weak to carry out certain "strenous" task. My friend's father was told to leave his taxi job at age 65 because they claimed his eyeside not too good. LHL brought in million of foreigners to make Singaporeans lost their jobs. So, if anyone were to believe LKY that we can work long enough to match his age, that fellow must be as DAFT AS LKY himself.
The Singapore of year 2010 onwards, it doesn't allow anyone here to have a retirement age.
People may think the rich can retire.
But the rich cannot retire because they have the mentality of being forgotten by the society. They cannot allow others to forget about them. Because once they do, they lost their competitive edge against others.
They forgotten what Ip Man 2 movie where Donnie Yen(Ip Man) told his disciple.
"How good can I fight where another 10 yrs time you (disciple) will be better and faster than me."
The retirement age is imposed but the situation and standards in singapore does not allow us to retire at all. :(

people so stupid to believe your kumantong can make people rich ? if your "ah boy " can make people rich , you wont have to create website to make $ from those delusional people ? why not start another website " www.guangyinmah.com" to make extra more money ?
The retirement age is needed to remove people who pose a danger to themselves and to others if they continue working till the day they die eg surgeons, pilots, taxi drivers etc. No amount of Medical check-up can determine the day one dies. Without an official or mandatory retirement age, an 86 yr old taxi/bus/train/lorry driver or surgeon or pilot dying while on the job can be disastrous.
Influential Senile dictator type politicians not medically tested annually but clinging to power in single party govts where checks and balances are absent can make GOOFY decisions that can cause irreversible consequences to the country.

no retirement age good what. mm lee can keep getting money from us until he die. along with all the other ministers. pretty much creating a golden rice bowl for all ministers. HOPEFULLY it will attract better talents who don't keep asking for higher pay or bigger bonuses.
Wrong! MMlee is not really thinking about carrying on getting paid $$$$$$$$$$$$, the post MM is invented so lky can remain in power lest his wrong doings be exposed.
NO OTHER COUNTRY IN THIS WORLD HAS A mm.
Or a SM for that matter. It is really a mockery that this old senile mental man is overstaying his welcome by so long and looks likely to extend it further. He reminds me of the last days of Deng Xiao Ping, old and frail, can hardly walked without support, hard of hearing yet still holding on to power.

Redundant post.
Wahaha, why u say I sarcastic?
A lot of people I spoke to in the region loved Singapore and LKY because Singapore is an example of what their country could compete and better but never will, no matter how "boleh".
Indeed, it is very strange that these same people to come to Singapore stay in S$750psf condo, enjoy our safe and secure environment and look down on the Sinkie peasants who stay across the street in S$300psf HDB at the same time.

In this case, lky's position should be RP instead of MM. i think someone made a blunder naming him MM.
Is this the reason why he cannot afford to retire now?
