There is a term for this: Singaporean style of MERITOCRACY. It's also familiar refrain in Ah Tiong land. Since childhood every Chinese is brainwashed to join the Chinese Communist Party if they want o succeed in life (read: amass massive wealth)

Despite being the titular head of state, King Wilhem- Alexander of The Netherlands is paid an annual salary of 850,000 euros. Compared it with our Tricky Tan, titular head of Sinkieland. What is TT's annual compensation? More than S$2.5 million or....?

Perhaps he was "consulted" on very insignificant matters, that is, les choses qui ne portent aucune importance ou signification.

I have a feeling that I am sinking into the depths of a depression. I am becoming more suicidal by the minute, especially on May Day. LEEgime has been unable to bring inflation rate to 1% for as long as I can remember despite having the elite Admin Service to help in managing the city-state...

His name appears under the list entitled "Personnalités auditionnées par la commission" (translation: People interviewed by the Commission) Foo Chiang Chie isn't the only one give his views. The Commission also asked Ah Tiong land too.

@ scroobal Have you read Hee-Haw Malu Money's most enlightening piece to date? It's titled "Singapore's biggest blessing: Safety" and appeared on April 13, 2013, page B38. It specifically targets posters like you. No offense. Below is the full article: Singapore's biggest blessing: Safety...

Important questions: * Which political party did recent graduates vote for at GE 2011? * In the past few years, our state-controlled media published news articles on how fresh graduates were able to command higher salaries compared to their previous cohorts. I don't know if The Straits Times...

Southeast Asia's 2015 unity dream collides with reality Source: http://news.yahoo.com/southeast-asias-2015-unity-dream-collides-reality-212216230.html Excerpts from the article Southeast Asian nations have quietly begun to row back on a deadline of forming an "economic community" by 2015...

This restaurant is nothing compared to the daily rip-offs that Sinkies suffer at the hands of LEEgime: COE, ERP, PUB, GST, PUB..... Any ideas on how to avoid being ripped off by FamiLEE?

Exactly. Since the day Pinky ascended the Dragon Throne, hasn't the economy been growing? Yes. But has the pay gone up in tandem with economic growth? No.

The Straits Times, being the state-controlled media and LEEgime's mouthpiece, published the following in the editorial of 26 April 2013. Notice how the editorial also advocates the FREE movement of skilled labour within Asean. Pressing on with Asean integration AFTER the deep divisions which...

Below is the front page news of The Straits Times, 26 April 2013. See how Pinky is very anxious to get AEC to work at the earliest opportunity: PM Lee: Vital for Asean to push integration GLOBAL uncertainty marked by weak growth and security hot spots in Asia make it all the more vital for...

When the AEC Framework kicks in, expect more Sinkie PMETs and other skilled workers to be laid off.

Very good rebuttal. BTW did you realize that this Song guy, who is definitely a senior citizen, is still vain?

It doesn't make sense for a minority of NS guys to protect the whole nation consisting mainly of foreingers and permanent residents.

Did the opposition parties bring up the increasing costs of living as an issue at the last GE? Could someone tell me? And will Gilbert Goh bring it up at the May Day protest?
