Citing Singapore's latest trade figures which declined sharply, he said that top on the government's priority is to help businesses cut cost.

the rental is still going up, what type of cut cost is he talking about? And all the best location all given to their own "Private" companies to develop controlling the rental , and all their "Private" companies filling up their own mall.

electricity? petrol? those have got nothing to do with them, in fact it should be much lower without them.

importing more FT to cost of manpower? but isn't that directly robbing the job from local and at the same time lower the average wages?

More ERP or increase charges and extend hour so that better traffic for those doing delivery and sales?



I really cannot understand how can they help businesses to cut cost.

I don't know how they can help businesses cut costs, but I know how they can help the country to cut costs. Significant costs.

They are the one that created this problem and got themselves paid million$. Now say it is priority to solve it and again paid another million$ to themselves.

Like that also can...

Cut electricity and water costs.
Cut rental costs.

trying to keep us mentally prepare for it.

if it happens, yes, what to do? it happens

and if they do not have to cut eventually, then they can claim all the credits.

win/win for them

I don't think so.. they've already decided and openly said that wages shld be cut, not CPF.

CPF is "revenue" to them lah.. :mad:

1) Cut ministers pay and peg it to some index based on the performane of the economy.
2) Cut army officers pay.
3) Cut GST by 2%
4) Lower CPF contribution employee/employer ie more disposable income.
5) Remove airport tax
C'mon all those ministers who are still not retrenched.....think of something innovative ito sustain the economy and stop criticizing on where the minister takes his lunch or dinner.

Last yr 2008 , our defence budget is 10 billion !

Cut the defence budget to 5 Billion and stop buying fanciful weapon. Stop giving the general and major obscene amount of salary ! This will help a lot. Don need to dig into reserve !
