I remember the good old days before sky high and obscene paychecks, it seemed every 2 or 3 days, a minister will be reported talking cock about what they are doing for the people to improve their lives or environmental or some new boogie man is threatening the country, the country should unite under the leadership to face them head on yaba, yaba. It was almost like a musical chair game in it's predictability. Why the silence? Running out of spin ideas?

Open mouth and one wrong word or one wrong sentence, the market will simply spiral down more and more. No words.No sound.No nothing. Better to keep quiet then to be seen and reveal sacred secrets. Rumours mongering is a serious offence!

SINGAPORE: NTUC's secretary-general Lim Swee Say said workers understand that Singapore's slide into recession is unavoidable because the country is part of the global financial system.
Speaking to the media during the "Money Sense" seminar on Saturday, the labour chief said the situation is not due to the fault of the government, employers or unions.
"Money Sense" is a programme designed to help Singaporeans understand money and investment matters.
Now that Singapore is in a technical recession, how money is spent and saved may be of bigger consequence. A website has been set up to engage Singaporeans online on the topic of financial security.
A poll has shown that out of 130 NTUC members, 32 per cent of them did not really care about money matters and more than half of them did not even have a financial plan.
In the same survey, 7 per cent of the respondents said they considered themselves a financial guru, meaning they saved up to 30 per cent of their monthly income, and they had at least three times their monthly salary to tide over tough times.
Giving some financial advice at the seminar, Mr Lim said: "Every month, when I receive my CPF statement, I feel so rich and the best part is, I know the CPF money won't run away. CPF will still be around for a long, long time to come... Not only is it earning good interest, my capital is protected."
Experts at the seminar said one is never too old to start financial planning.

It could have been worse...*hee*hee*
Lim Swee Say lets his mouth motor off even faster than his brain. If that guy isn't considered a fool, he should be now.
What inside info do you have? Your bosses are going to empty their bank accounts to help the poor? Or are they heading en mass for a holiday in Switzerland?
Is MM hiding in a cul de sac? Wheres his usual bullshit?
In the long run, We'd all be dead.
We are already. Mentally and Spiritually. It's just the physical part to wait for.
He has outsourced his BS to a lowly with a moniker Division1.
But I guess he is regretting it because he is not getting his money's worth, albeit the peanuts it costs to him.
Yap, sad to say, he did which is unnecessary and not funny at all (the audience did laugh, wondering for his candid or folly?) considered himself one of the super scale salaried man.
And he is of the so called Division 1 Class calibre leadership? What a crock!
