Budget 2011 will be out on Feb 18: MOF

[MarrickG]

THE Government will unveil the Budget for the coming financial year on Feb 18, with measures to help Singaporeans cope with the higher cost of living expected to be a dominant feature.

Finance Minister Tharman Shanmugaratnam will present it and people can watch it live on the website www.singaporebudget.gov.sg

With government coffers brimming with possibly record revenues, and inflation on the climb, expectations are high that it will contain goodies to soothe the bite of inflation. Added to the mix is the near certainty that it is the last Budget before the next general election, which has to be held by Feb 2 next year.

Government leaders have indicated it would have good news for most people.

Over the weekend, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong singled out the rising cost of living as a cause for worry for many Singaporeans, adding that there will be measures to help tide them over.

Official inflation figures released on Monday added urgency to the challenge.

The 33.3% talk so much cock. The 66.6% other uncles are counting their money in the counting house gleefully thanking PAP.

They will announce the budget payout to cushion the recent inflation and also the economy recovery for Singapore hitting double figures. The payout date will be announced and then some months or so, they will announce the GE date which is very close to the payout date.

Scripted. Everything must be in place and order:p

Based on MM's latest remarks, expect tax/fee increases for those in upper middle income and above ( living in 5 room/pte).

This is to pay for goodies to be given out the lower income so as to win votes for the upcoming elections.

Yes count and pocket the money but vote opposition!

Just like in Malaysia, the voters are getting smarter. Take the goodies but vote opposition!

You hope. LTK maybe. CST maybe. KJ maybe. SL maybe. Perry Tong maybe. Glenda Han maybe. KJ's team of elite educated candidates, maybe (but when you elect them you will realise what is LPPL since this will be just another flavour of Oxbridge administrators).

The rest? LCP Abdul ITE-I-wanna-punch-a-woman Salim? FM (minus 9 ranks) can't-even-run-a-computer-shop-need-to-sell-HDB-for-election-deposit Goh Meng Seng? The MONGREL who bit his masters' hands LOUDHAILER chee soon juan? Uncle-wannabe Yap Keng Ho? My toes can't stop laughing.
