Budget 2015

[eatshitndie]

Most likely. Next budget we should have the traditional election ang pow in the form of NSS or whatever they chose to call it.
In the past 20 years, there has not been an election without a cash giveaway.

$200 per voter can move thousands of votes per constituency and tip the balance. pap is da best!

I also counter that if I stay in a HDB 3 room, I can drive a mercedes and don't feel a bit poor.

A house is an appreciating asset. A car is not.

If this true, reading behind the lines, economy not good in Y2015. Y2016 should be better.

That's not how the global cycle is going to play out. 2015 will be a volatile year, but 2016 is expected to be uniformly weak for the global economy especially Asia.

Doubt it will work because it is the PAP who refuses to return baby boomers their CPF, which is worth more then whatever handouts the PAP are likely to give out.

Baby boomer were given A One Time "Pioneer Card" last year!! Age above 65 years old!
Pioneer card were basically taken for a ride, u visit Polyclinic and were give hefty subsidy
like 50 to 70% subsidies but they were all inflated and than give u subsidy, u think we all
primary school kids?? Cholesterol medicine were billed net price than billed to Medisave,
example $134.00 for 6 months, No Subsidy! but why?? we want an answer from Botak!

Please be genuine and sincere if you really want to give Pioneer a subsidy!!

Now our CPF were sucked dry by the board and 55years were raised to 65yrs old by than most
would have been very sick, handicap, inactive or up on the lorry!!!

Erection & Voting year is ahead and gahmen say they are giving $600.00 to old folks and GST refund etc
just to buy votes! but the billion dollar CPF money still stuck there!!!

Hi there,

So when is Gotze going to get himself a avatar? Since July 2014 it has been without it.

Why are you so concerned about my avatar or lack thereof

Pump prices up across the board after petrol duty hike

Pump prices up across the board after petrol duty hike

By Adrian Lim

SINGAPORE - Pump prices across all four petrol companies were up on Tuesday, following Monday's Budget announcement of a hike in petrol duties.
The most popular grade of petrol, 95-octane, now costs between $2.01 and $2.04 per litre. Premium grade petrol, such as 98-octane, now ranges from $2.20 a litre at the Singapore Petroleum Company, to $2.65 for Shell's V-Power. All prices are before discount.
Finance Minister Tharman Shanmugaratnam said on Monday that the increase in petrol duties, which have remained unchanged since 2003, will "encourage less car usage and reduce carbon emissions".
The tariff for premium grade petrol is now 64 cents a litre, up by 20 cents, while the duty for intermediate-grade petrol - such as 92-octane and 95-octane - is 56 cents per litre, up by 15 cents.

Another trick: at those 'subsidised' clinics the doctors or dentists will put in a lot of hidden costs or psycho the elderly into paying for special things. For example, an enterprising dentist will insist that the Pioneer customer buy some expensive toothbrush from the clinic to protect his/her Pioneer teeth and gums.

It's like those bank relationship managers pulling a fast one on unsuspecting elderly folks, only this time it happens in healthcare.

Re: Higher salary ceiling, more contributions for older workers among CPF changes

Yes Dad!! We will remember Roy fondly as we get drunk over our improved CPF returns while he sells his backside to pay off his bankruptcy.

That is not the answer

Heard from a opposition member citing this example on pap policies: today they give you a chicken thigh, tomorrow they will take back an entire chicken from you for sure.

Don't worry...they are giving tax rebates...that is when? but collect money from you, ASAP was it 4.27pm or 5.27pm Feb 23, 2015....collect first, which will be more than you get the rebates..unless you don't drive the car..then again, you will be paying for Car Park fees...ha ha ha

Re: Pump prices up across the board after petrol duty hike

Tharman assured us that the after the introduction of petrol tax, we will still be paying lower than when crude oil was $100+ a barrel.

Since when does the fluctuation of the crude oil prices justify the increased in petrol tax?
