Supermarket Plastic Bags
I didn't know it is so crazy now. Now sheng siong got an automated plastic bags dispenser. I pay 5 cents, it will give me a plastic bag from vault. machiam so precious. Don't tell me that our country is giving some sort of grant to install such automation.

In NTUC, they will station a person, just to allocate plastic bags when I do self check-out after paying. Will we hike to 10 cents or 20cents per bag to justify the additional cost of labour?

Giant and Cold Storage are worst. After I do self-checkout, I got to show cashier my receipts to get the plastic bags that I needed/paid.

The fundamental reason for banning plastic single use bags is for the environment.

If supermarkets want to charge for bags.,,by all means can but sell paper or recyclable bags at a suitable price to their customers who insist on having bags.

My Careers Future Portal
Employers are required to advertise a job position on MyCareersFuture for 14 days before they can apply for an Employment Pass (EP) or S Pass.

Fuck lah, I think most posts there are just procedures. Companies are using fake online job openings to clock mileage, show MOM that they did attempt to culture a pool of local candidates with no intention of hiring.

This uniquely Singapore phenomenon has caused universal frustration on both the applicant and hiring side. Why wayang and make job-seekers waste hours trying to get hired by companies with no intention of hiring locals.

Kopitiam Plastic Lids
A few years ago, major kopitiams stopped giving straws. I boycotted them. Some resumed giving straws now. But the most environmentally-stupid thing is that overnight, almost all of them start to use thick disposable plastic lids to replace the straws. Don't this create more plastic waste?

Anyway, Singapore does not have refuse problem in our waterways. Local-born Singaporeans also don't really litter these days. Do you know that paper straws contains a lot of "forever" plastics which will be absorbed into your body? Why assume that we are some third world country anyhow throw rubbish and stop using plastic straws?

Thailand vs Singapore 3-1
China is thanking us like crazy,
for helping them through to next round of world cup qualifiers, because we managed to limit our goal-difference with Thailand.

Isn't this like roasting us?

Despite being a smaller country, I was so proud that Singapore held China to a draw and they were so rough with our players on the pit. Now, despite our weak performance, the media make it sounds like we are China's side-kick.

Local Banks AML
This month, our banks start to publicize their efforts on Anti-Money Laundering (AML).
https://www.businesstimes.com.sg/co...ents-train-staff-spot-money-laundering-tricks
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/arti...oles-after-singapore-money-laundering-scandal

Several moons ago, our banks had been busy instructing their RMs to tell those clients (Eg, born in China with St Kitts/Cambodian citizenship, mailing address in Malaysia scammers) to transfer their money out and close account because we are going to flag them. This is like giving tip-offs before police raids a gambling den. Just ask our local banks to disclose how much money transfered out of Singapore by such clients in the past one year.

The PAP technocrats have sold out this country to the BlackRock Jews and the globalist anti-carbon cult. All in the name of their pipe dream of 'sustainability'. This is to be expected. :cool:

in sg if trash including plastic puck puck bags are incinerated the threat of microplastics on the environment is eliminated. however with incineration there’s always air pollution.

Charging for plastic bags in Singapore (for the sake of environmentalism) is like fear-porn to me. It is meaningless and lowers our standard of living. In Singapore, we used to recycle these rubbish bags to organize our garbage or food-waste, now rats-infestation has worsened in Singapore.
