[Sg video] - Jamus Lim argues for reinstating Thaipusam as a public holiday in Singapore to be fair to Sg Indians

Might as well say Autum festival must be a statuary holiday ; WP running out of ideas nowadays?

 

[bobby]

To be fair …. also must have public holiday for Hanukkah

 

[KingFook Sr]

Absolutely reasonable of Jamus to ask for this reinstatement.
However, will 'small minded PAP' want to be seen as slow in benefitting Sinkies ... so obviously?

 

[batman1]

The 2 ah neh ministers also not interested.555

Sinkieland is too stingy with the number of public holidays, we should have two more:

23 Mar: the anniversary of 'Get well soon'.
16 Sep: the birth of SG's messiah.

They perfectly complement the existing holiday 9 Aug: the anniversary of getting kicked out of Malaysia.

 

[Hypocrite-The]

Any additional pubic holidays will be fair to all singkies

Bring back Boxing Day (26 Dec) as a public holiday in SG. How about Thanksgiving Day as well?

With remote working, the lines are blurred. I find myself still doing work over the weekends and public holidays, and definitely after office hours on weekdays.

To be patriotic, the opening of LKY's memorial shld be granted a National Holiday. Hail PAP!

Ban alcohol on that day like Thailand
Better yet close all entertainment outlets and restaurants on that day

 

[Narong Wongwan]

They die die cannot reinstate Thaipusam coz it was removed together with Mohammed birthday back then. So if reinstated one the mozzies will kpkb to reinstate the other so LPPL

 

[congo9]

Knn.
What is wrong with more holidays ?

Sg for one of the least PH in the world
Even workaholics like japs and chink 996 got more PH than us

Tat is why ' Right to Disconnect ' laws are needed in Singkiesland... singkiesland labour laws are a joke for a developed nation

2 extra pubic holidays...? I am all for it...and add in Easter Monday too

Halloween is gaining popularity with the younger generation, perhaps it should be a public holiday. Even the PAP grassroots organize Halloween activities, no need to pretend.

 

[VanDick]

If he is doing this because the WP is targeting the Indian (And naturalized Cecas) votes, then its a very sensible move.
