Economy is still bad.
How come there are still engineers here and there being promoted frequently during bad times?
There are those so many of them who have weathered through the economy downturn and struggling very hard to make ends meet and have not been promoted for almost 8 to 10 years yet always supportive and rallying behind management.
For so decades, Civil Service is still not valuing Part-time degree holders.
So what is the benefit for these 'strugglers' to continue to take up part time courses to support those lecturers who are graduants of NTU/NUS/SMU?
The rich will continue to become richer.
Management will continue to cover their backsides and protect their own rice bowls.
They have forgotten the case of:-
A National University of Singapore (NUS) lecturer was slashed in the throat by a technician who burst into a faculty meeting yesterday. The assailant was apprehended by the police who arrived within minutes. A woman administrative officer at NUS was also slashed across the face. Associate Professor Lee Kwok Heng, 47, a vice-dean at the engineering faculty, died at the National University Hospital where he was taken to. (Straits Times 14 Aug 2003 1)
Will more such low-pay or low-grade technical support staff succumb to doing what the above had done?
Must management start to 'recognise' and start to reward them after more such cases have happened?
