Singapore's Temasek Holdings uses abt S$190B Singaporeans' money to invest (gamble) on the share market and made S$10B per year.

S Korea's Samsung made S$7.6B in three months. Annualised would be S$30B per year.

TH gambles and uses wealth transfer to make money. Samsung uses high technology, innovation to create wealth.

Who is on the right track?

Is PAP a better govt to its citizens or is S Korea's govt better?
 
Are you willing to slog long hours 7 days a week like the Koreans?

For many years, Singapore workers were ranked No. 1 in the world for more than a decade [Link]. They work the longest hours

S'pore workers clock up longest work hours: ILO

DESPITE the recession that hit towards the end of 2008, Singapore workers still clocked up the most hours, says a report by the International Labour Organisation (ILO).

Try asking more intelligent questions! If you insist on asking stupid questions and show that you dont know what you are saying, you risk being totally ignored

Do you know how stressed and hardworking Singaporeans are?

If you dont, please do not do injustice to Singaporeans by running them down.

It is best to remain silent and not speak untruths.

A good man tames his tongue. The tongue is a restless evil, full of deadly poison and deceit! Speak only what is true, good and edifying!

We, Singaporean, have been working hard from day till night, sacrificed all our hours to work & family, but find it hard to beat the inflation. Still, we are losing our jobs to cheaper foreigner. So we should allow this hardship to continue, and help the minority rich get richer every day?

Kinana should work harder, don't disgrace us.

The problem is the pappies govt don't want to invest in the people.
They rather take the easy way out, that is to use the money to invest and make profits for themselves.
The sporeans working so long hours but the job they do have little to no value added.
They had to slough so long is mainly due to low pay and company bad culture.

no government can turn dumb workers into inventive and innovative leaders who dominate the global economy. thanks to apple, google and many innovative start-ups in silicon valley, samsung and htc are able to leverage appware, available source codes, original chip designs and other tech, most notably screen and touch software to copy first, then "create" their own products.

i'm very familiar with korean gov agencies' efforts to assist their chaebols' competitiveness and success on the world market. i'm on their mailing list and know all their reps in the silicon valley office. they don't have much talent in the gov agencies, and these sk gov reps add no value at all except to conduct high tech espionage. all their best talents work for the leading chaebols: samsung, lg, hyundai, etc.

the companies or chaebols provide the foundation for their own success. for example, samsung and lg are investing heavily in silicon valley and plans to hire and poach talent from other companies in the valley. they are using the valley as their main innovation engine and relying on workers in sk for value add around the core development, which is majority silicon valley based.
