People conveniently blame the system and the government when things dont go their way.
So,  what kind of  " shake up"   should be given to these people?

EX-Minister George Yeo Explaining Why The Prime minister apologised
(PM Lee) came down to Kaki Bukit and after the walk about we sat down for coffee and we were reviewing the progress of the campaign so far.
So I told him that there was deep resentment which had to be acknowledged, not just cursorially, but in detail. And it was not just a question about policies, it was not just the minds we were addressing, we have to address the hearts too.
He listened very hard, he paused, and later he told me that it was because of that conversation that he took that position at Boat Quay.
So I’m a voice, sometimes it’s in the minority, sometimes it’s part of the majority. |

Minister George Yeo on the need to ‘shake the box’
When I was in the Harvard Business School, there was a course which I took called ‘Control’, which is how does an organisation achieve its objectives through feedback, audits, various control methods. And we studied all manner of feedback mechanisms, audits, checks, counter-checks and so on.
In the end, the professor gave a summation which till today, I remember, which is that from time to time, it’s important to shake the box.
Because whatever system you set up, after a while, it becomes so predictable that it doesn’t capture all the feedback that it needs to have.
So a certain shaking of the box is required from time to time, and this is such a time. |

Solution to rising costs is to grow economy: MM

Only PAP can form govt capable of doing so, he says By Chua Mui Hoong, Deputy Review Editor MM Lee visited the PAP Radin Mas branch yesterday to rally the troops helping incumbent candidate Sam Tan Chin Siong (right, behind Mr Lee). Radin Mas is a new single member constituency carved out of Tanjong Pagar GRC, where Mr Lee and his team members have been returned unopposed. -- ST PHOTO: WANG HUI FEN
Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew has an answer for voters who ask what else the Government can do to ease their pressure over the rising cost of living: It can give out more.
But to do so, it needs to grow the economic pie. And this requires a capable government to run the country - which means the People's Action Party (PAP), as no opposition party is able to assemble a team close to the quality of the PAP's.
He made these points at a press conference yesterday evening, after visiting the PAP's Radin Mas branch to rally the troops helping incumbent candidate Sam Tan.
Radin Mas is a new single-member constituency carved out of Mr Lee's Tanjong Pagar GRC, which is the only uncontested constituency this election.
Mr Lee acknowledged voters' concerns over high living costs. But these are due to 'higher food prices elsewhere, as a result of higher oil prices, which is reflected in transportation costs for cars, buses and electricity'.
He disagreed that PAP policies have raised costs or widened the income gap. Instead, its policies have helped Singapore ride on a 'rising tide' - but not all boats have risen equally.
For those concerned about falling behind, the Government has Workfare for the low-income. For the majority, it has shared the benefits of growth by giving back rebates and dividends worth up to 'a few thousand dollars per person' in the U-Save and Grow and Share package.
'It's only possible because we have a capable government, and most importantly, we have a capable finance minister and MAS managing director,' he said, referring to Jurong GRC candidate Tharman Shanmugaratnam and Tampines GRC candidate Heng Swee Keat, who was managing director of the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) before standing for election.
'After the financial crisis, last year we grew 14.4 per cent, so we have the cash to give this Growth and Share package. Without that, there will be very little to share,' he said.
Singapore was able to grow the economy, so it did not have to raid the reserves which have taken decades to build up.
'The trouble is, young Singaporeans don't know the past,' he said. 'They do not know how vulnerable currencies are if they don't have solid reserves and a stable, strong government.'
He lamented that the younger generation does not understand the need for an exceptional team to lead Singapore.
'It is a footloose generation that has not experienced the past and believes that Singapore is now an aeroplane that is flying safely and can go on autopilot and anybody can take over,' he said.
'But I don't happen to believe that. I think we'll run into all kinds of bad weather and you need capable people in charge.'
He warned voters that the opposition seeks not only to be a check on the PAP Government, but also to trip it up and eventually take over to form the Government.
The Workers' Party's ambition, he said, is not just to win one GRC. 'Let's have no hypocrisy about this: Every political party sets out to win, and win a majority - and they're setting out from a single constituency to a GRC, and then to expand to more GRCs, and to take over.'
The trouble is that they lack the people who could do the job, he said.
'Low Thia Khiang, he wants to be the co-driver. What does he really want? He wants to take over.
'So I'll ask him, who's going to be his finance minister, his defence minister, his minister for trade and industry, his foreign minister? And who is his prime minister?
'It's up to you to decide whether they're capable of running Singapore.'
He dismissed the suggestion that an elected opposition is needed to maintain checks and balances on the PAP.
'Let me put it simply: Do you want a First World government? What is important? A First World government, or a Second World government with a First World opposition?
'And I don't think we've got a First World opposition yet. And from 1966 to 1981, there was not one opposition MP and the PAP remained incorrupt, completely dedicated to the job, and made great progress and brought Singapore up to a higher level.
'That is our record. You look at the growth rates from 1965 to 1981. That's my answer. The character of the PAP has not changed. It's incorrupt, it's efficient, it's all-inclusive.'

  My own view is :
S'pore propeprty sectors share price has dropped more than 50% since the subprime crisis 3 years ago, but , the properties  selling price didnt really drop alot.      Its time (my view only)    for the share price to rebound givien the strong recovery of property market.      There is general disconnection between the performance of stock market and the prices of properties.
As someone said :        " ......Only when a " PROLONG" period of   sliding in stock market,  then,  we  can see  the actual selling prices of properties will drop significantly........."

good idea and thanks for sharing.
but let us also be frank and honest about the CFD admin fees are higher....short interest rate and long interest rate can eat into profit.
 
for example if i short @ 3.39 and buy back @ 3.31 8 cents profits will need to pay a fee?
alexchia01 ( Date: 08-May-2011 21:47) Posted:
To make $100k with $10k, you should use a CFD account. This way you
can leverage the $10k and trade up to $100k if you choose the right
counters. Let say STI move an average of 5% every month and you maximize
the full CDF amount, you can generate a return of $5,000/month. If you
don't make any mistakes and you compound the gain, you can make $100k in
around 5 years. If there is a crisis where STI falls by 40% in 1 month,
you can do this within a year. Sounds good right?
However, you have some problems...
1. Not all counters can leverage up to $100k.
2. We don't know how much STI is going to move every month.
3. You can't maximize the full CFD amount because you need some reserve to prevent unwanted Margin Calls.
4. We are humans and we make mistakes.
5. You can't compound all your gains because you need to pay expenses, commission and other fees.
6. We don't know when is the next crisis coming.
7. I'm not a broker nor remiser.

After the GE,  MM Lee appearing on the TV (which channel ?  cant remember, was it Boomberg or?) -  seems to want to let the whole world feel confidenct of singapore GIC and to assure it is not affected by the  lower % won over by PAP in recent GE.
CONFIDENCE LEVEL by foreign investors are viewed the utmost  imporatance and the peace of singapore cannot be afford to fall into a  MESS and its system cant be afford to be altered.

Foreign minister position should not be  holding MP positions.  Internal control / security also an area should be given full concentration since 911.
They should not be made to contest in  an election!!

Position like  Minister of Foreign Affairs - should not hold MP position in any areas of singapore.    Some ministeial jobs are just needed to be  give FULL TIME AND FULL CONCENTRATION. 
Besides  Foreign Affairs,  Interal control and security, also should be  GIVEN FULL ATTENTION especiallly afte 911 saga.

Friend,  you hit right at the point! ($more than 10,000, looks attractive to lure  SOMEONE WHO STAYED IN OVERSEAS FOR  30 YEARS TO COME BACK TO SERVE PEOPLE ??????????    ) 
I  am not opposition fanatics  , but, the then J B Jeyaretnam in Anson, was  the most respectful    guy who went thru the solo and long battle in parliament.
Next we shall see Low and Sylvia's performance which most of singaporeans have high expection of  but given their high calibra, they should be able to match up to expectation.

Besides alternative voices, serving people …etc….when MP allowance was $5k long time ago, how many seats were contested and   how many opp came out to contest ? With more money now at $15k/month , isn’t it naturally ONE of the BIG factors to attract more people to consider contesting more seats ? Especially those candidates whose earning   much below that figures, why not give it a try ? Some even opening declared to be Full-Time MPs if elected, good money right ? when candidates contesting make whatever promises, people can tell what they are up to,,,,,,
 
WP Low has said openly before that he stress on good party discipline and advise its candidates and party members to behave and present themselves well ( DON’T ANYHOW TALK or PROMISE , DON’T ANYHOW ACCUSE PEOPLE without facts or  proof ) so that they can build up a respectable, reliable and credible image to win the public trust and confidence, that I will say, is the winning formula for the WP together with  good and qualified people join with them. Well done, WP.

This is  a  PROMISE to nation in the public. and ,  if  more than one opposition parties win some seats in parliament,  you can imagine, differing views from each oppositios parties, could be chaotic.
So, lets be realistic, be one united opp party,  no differences BUT,   same value which is  -    Serving people and the nation well.

Not only just the opposition.   Can also be said as encouraging PAP candidates to do something similar.
People have different lens to look at things.   Nobody is always right.   But with Chinese culture, a word is a bond and cannot be anyhow spoken if there was never any intention to carry it to the letter. The Chinese businessmen always have the principle of maintaining trust and respecting trust, so when they said something they normally will do it. " Yi yen zhi, si ma nan chui" , (One word out, four steeds unable to chase it back).is usually used to embody a promise that will be honoured.

He is contesting in an Election, he is  pinning down the other groups of oppositions  parties who  never made such a promise.
This will become an ISSUE or  SOURCE to quarrel  or    make things difficult for ALL opposition parties  .
