Knn, Lawrence wong talking cock again ! ...
He didn't say anything on the actual impact on Singapore, what are the consequences !
If US levy Tarriff, that their issue. We have free trade all over the world with other nation.

The answer is obvious.
LW has no solution to it, therefore he cannot say it out even he wanted to please sinkies.
He can only hint to sinkies be prepared to jiak sai, and that you can eat less sai and some real food when you put pap (with leecord) in charge.
And that you will jiak sai everyday if you vote for oppies.

So now sinkies need to ask themselves this simple question.
Do I want to jiak sai everyday or jiak sai at times and jiak food at times.

A PM who earns $2.2 million per year must have something better to say than merely blurting out clichés.

LW is a one-trick pony.

Hope this situation in Sinkieland persists for a while.

I expect the PAP's election messaging to be adjusted accordingly: "In times of uncertainty, and because of external circumstances beyond our control, we need solidarity and unity, and give a strong mandate to the PAP to navigate the storm" etc. The usual, predictable claptrap, I should be preaching to the choir by now.

Fear and greed/vanity are the two most reliable tactics to sell anything to anyone. You can sell health products, kids' tuition, watches and handbags etc. You saw it when the pushed the 'safe and...

No use. Budget given did not create great impact to help struggling citizens. Whether he is making empty talks can be judged by weather the ministerial salary will be reduced due to tariffs on Singapore economy.

INDONESIAN-BORN BILLIONAIRE PICKS UP SINGAPORE SHOPHOUSE HOTEL FOR $75M​

2025/04/06 BY CHRISTOPHER CAILLAVET LEAVE A COMMENT

An Indonesian-born, Ivy League-educated billionaire has acquired a 48-room hotel in the Boat Quay area near downtown Singapore, with market sources who spoke to Mingtiandi confirming a transaction price of S$100 million ($74.9 million).

Leo KoGuan — a software magnate and one of the largest individual shareholders in Elon Musk’s Tesla — bought 21 Carpenter, a hostelry fashioned from four conservation shophouses, from local player 8M Real Estate, according to an announcement this week. Shophouse specialist 8M picked up the 1936-vintage property seven years ago for a reported S$37 million and converted it from retail and office use to a boutique hotel under the Marriott Design brand.






The S$100 million sum represents the largest-ever shophouse transaction by quantum in Singapore, according to deal advisor JLL. The per-key price of more than S$2 million is likewise one of the biggest for a city-state hospitality property, eclipsing the S$1.8 million that Vietnam’s Viva Land paid three years ago for So/ Singapore on Robinson Road.

For local resident Leo, a self-styled Sinologist and historian of Taoism icon Xuan Yuan of Chinese antiquity, the 21 Carpenter buy was part of a mission to make a meaningful contribution to society.

“As a new member of the community, I am committed to enhancing the welfare, culture and heritage of Singapore,” he said. “This boutique hotel plays a vital role in enriching Singapore’s cultural landscape, honouring its heritage and celebrating the legacy of Chinese immigrants.”

If Sinkies must prepare for more shocks after tariffs…will minister take the lead and brace for their pay cuts?

I'm not a world economic person and did not bother to leelee do deep studies into what impact will sg directly faced for this tariff saga.
But my first thought and current thought is that it will affect business owners more than common peasants.

Business may moved out of sg. But what the fuck I care about this, when jobs are mostly given to fts.

However the evil pap might make use of this to increase taxes from peasants.

We don't or I don't use USA product.
I don't do USA export and importing.
I don't pay income tax.

The stock market crash, 管我屁事。
Crash better for me in fact.

Hence I think This tariff has zero impact on me, unless greedy hawker and supermarkets make use of this to increase price.

And therfore, LW cannot instill any fear on me. Vto.

This is not economic, at least not the main objective. This is ideological warfare, against the China communists.

That's why Vietnam was slapped with high tariffs. Negotiate with Trump to lower tariffs, of course you can. But tax those Tiongs who bring goods into Vietnam for re-export.

let's call it the tariff relief package. lol.
when running out of ideas, just give money to the people to appease them.
