<!-- START OF : div id="storytext"--><!-- more than 4 paragraphs -->ON WEDNESDAY, Mr Har Hoong Onn asked if it was possible to 'build nursing homes at comparable prices here' as in Johor Baru.
We should try, but it is a challenge. According to the Singapore investor in an upcoming nursing home in JB, his total cost to put up the facility of 200 beds, including land, was estimated at $10 million. This is less than the cost of putting up an outpatient polyclinic in Singapore, even excluding land cost.
It is not just capital cost. Nursing homes are labour intensive. The wages of nurses here are more than double those in JB.
These are the market realities. By keeping the borders open, Singaporeans can, if they wish, take advantage of the cost differences across the Causeway. Ultimately, what we want is good care for our loved ones. Some may find it a better option to seek professional nursing home care for their elderly, while others prefer to do so at home. This is something for families to decide.
Low-income Singaporeans, however, need not worry as heavy government subsidy ensures that subsidised nursing home care here remains affordable. Each year, the Ministry of Health subsidises more than $110 million in intermediate and long-term care services and Medifund provides the safety net.
We will do more as the population ages further. Karen Tan (Ms)

The problem is the cost of living and the gst. The PAP are the ones who create these things to happen.

Implement NS for girls but have them serve in Nursing Homes and hospitals. That way keep cost low (pay them same rate as NS guys) and let them learn something about taking care of others.

 

[commoner]

We should try... Try si mi? already the total investment of $10mil is not enough even to run a polyclinic, try simi lan,,,,,,

Singapore subsidize $110 mil and it is still more expensive than JB, it simply means the govt is paying Ms Karen Tan too much liao,,,,,

As usual, civil servants when trying to justify their bosses spill out oral diarrhea,,,,,

Lackey Karen Tan says old peasants die, their families' problems.

This tan gives e rest of the tans a bad name.

A true vermin.

Can try building some nursing homes at Nassim and Bukit Timah !

The problem is the cost of living and the gst. The PAP are the ones who create these things to happen.

400-600++ billions already sucked and bled into Temasick and GIC .

GLCs sucked even more billions from Sinkies

Even as we talk now, more billions are squeezed and bled from all of us.

Those billions stolen from Sinkies impact on all aspects of our life.

That is why JB nursing homes and everything elsewhere are so much less expensive than Singapore.

GET RID OF THAT BASTARD STINKING LKY AND HIS PAP GHOULS.

COST OF LIVING HERE WILL COME DOWN AS THOSE FUCKHEADS IN WHITE ROT IN JAIL AS THEY BELONG THERE.

After nursing homes, let's have HDB homes in JB at a fraction of the cost here in Singapore. Singaporeans can live in JB and work in Singapore for the same wages any Malaysian is willing to work.

Hahaha, good idea.
I can already hear the bitches start to kao peh kao bu.

Is labour the cost driver preventing cheaper old folks homes

Go look at our hospitals & you'll find it is being staffed by nurses, technicians, doctors from the 3rd world. All the cheap labour & yet medical costs are high in Spore.

It is something like NS, many are getting rich but not the poor NS man who's getting slave wages.

Follow the money & you'll know who the real culprits are

Unbelievable that cock suckers like Ms karen Tan is paid so much money to spout this bullshit.
What market realities is she talking about? the PAP set the land price, control the price of electricity, water, etc. If the market realities are too expensive here, its caused by the PAP. With the $200 billion they lost, they can set up 100 nursing care homes in Singapore, and and run them for free for 25 years.

It just down to the POLITICAL WILL of the PAP ! If we can lose 58billion in a yr and we are still OK , why freak out over a few millions ? Where is your sense of PROPOTION ?

If they start to lose a few GRCs, they will know what can be done and what cannot be push too far !
