Tan Jee Say:
A major contributor to the increased economic volatility was manufacturing, which has been promoted by the Government in the past five decades as a key pillar of its economic growth strategy.
Singapore has little comparative advantage for manufacturing to flourish as land, labour and skills are in short supply.
The manufacturing sector can only remain viable in Singapore through more subsidised factory land and space, uninterrupted inflow of cheap foreign labour, and generous tax holidays and other giveaways.
Such economic distortions in the last 30 years have delayed Singapore’s economic restructuring. The economy has become more volatile in recent years, with Singapore experiencing three recessions in the past 15 years, in contrast to only one recession in the years between 1965 and 1995.

Two views on the future of Singapore’s economy
Singapore Democratic Party candidate Tan Jee Say has proposed a wide-ranging plan to transform Singapore’s economy.
On Saturday, Trade and Industry Minister Lim Hng Kiang offered a point-by-point rebuttal as to why Mr Tan’s suggestions
won’t work. We take a look at several of their differing views.

My only hope for those oppositions that win in this coming general election would be:
Please, be united as ONE SINGLE OPPOSITION PARTY and be uniform in whatever decision is to be made and concluded.
Laulan ( Date: 27-Apr-2011 11:16) Posted:
After May or after the election, whichever the outcome, the market will spring forth and a new era of bullishness will prevail.
Reasons:
If PAP wins all, then the status quo will be what we used to be, a resounding economy with the rich getting richer with their wealth creation, so we and the many poor get the crumbs that drop down for us. We will still play the stock market with a bullish outlook and the country economy remains healthy.
If PAP lose some seats, no harm. They will be still in government and we will still play the market with a bullish outlook as they will as usual often issue statistics to show our GDP is growing and the country is healthy and the people are comfortable.
If PAP lose more seats than they expected, no harm if they still hold the first key to our country's treasures. We will still play the stock market with a bullish outlook since observers will believe in our political democracy of choice and continue to invest in Singapore.
If the oppositions gain 43 percent of seats in parliament, many people might feel a sense of relief as though they have shrugged off a burden from their shoulders felt carried for too long of strict obeyance in deemed unpopular policies thrusted upon them. Then at least they could hear more reasons why certain policies were set and debated by many who are not answerable to the PAP. The stock market will still be there, and we will still play it with a bullish outlook.
When you go to the polls, don't forget to cast your vote properly and wisely. If you have never voted before, don't forget you have to CROSS, i.e. put a " X" on the box provided to select the party of your choice. Do not use a tick, because it will become a spoilt vote. If your vote is spoilt, your efforts will be in vain. Therefore vote carefully. After the election, come back to play the stock market with a bullish outlook.
Cheers.

Do note:
Making house prices dipping at the expense of our national reserve is not a wise move.
The chief of land evaluate the land prices based on many factors and some smart alec just come and simply say " we will reduce the HDB flats sellling price" at the expense of possibly, other important sources, is not a responsible act, in long run, Singapore will suffer.
Reducing the GST will impact on our less spending on quality life of singaporeans such as, education, healhcare, clean environment...............etc. At east should be status quo as from now till the next 5 years.. No subidy system is a good system adopted by singapore. Look at other country whereby their government HEAVILY SUBSIDISED their people the OIL prices. Once this has started , there will never be an end to it and their governments are not able to stop the SUBSIDY!!!! So, less spending on quality life or improvement to their people's life unlike singapore.

DO NOT BUY RESALE FLATs - I think its not worth the money.
A falt costs $1.4 million in Shunfu, can land you a good and nice condo!! (Free hold)
A flat costs $ 900,000 in bishan, toa payh or hougang , (more than 25 years of age), you can get a condo (99 lease near mrt inYishan etc)

My China PR Friend who wanted to invest in HDB flat said.......not true, at least at SengKang, COV is closer to 40K rather than the median 20K.

COV down 9% in Q1
Analysts divided if cash over valuation will fall further or hold
Linette Lim
linettelim@mediacorp.com.sg
SINGAPORE
COV premiums for HDB resale flats dropped 9 per cent, or a S$2,000 decrease, to S$21,000 for the first quarter of this year, according to data from the Housing and Development Board.
Observers attributed the decrease to the Government’s cooling measures but were divided on whether COV premiums have bottomed out or will continue to drop.
“Currently, the COVs have come to a point where it is not going any much lower,” said PropNex chief executive Mohamed Ismail. “Based on our Prop-Nex data, the COV for the month of April has already gone up to a median at S$23,000, which is where we were starting prior to the first quarter.”
However, Cushman & Wakefield vice-chairman Donald Han reckons
COV premiums will continue to fall.
“I think the fact that there’s going to be 22,000 new HDB dwellings going up in the marketplace, and the Government’s ramping up ... its development mission to develop more HDB properties ... will mean vendors cannot hold on to their COV asking prices,” he said.
The Resale Price Index increased 1.6 per cent in the first quarter, compared with 2.5 per cent in the previous quarter.
While the total number of resale transactions fell by about 4 per cent to 6,228 cases, the proportion of resale cases transacting above valuation remained at 96 per cent.
Meanwhile, median sublet rents during this period remained relatively stable with increases for one-room and five-room flats and decreases for two-room flats.
Subletting transactions rose by 8 per cent to 6,365 cases.
The total number of HDB flats approved for subletting rose to about 36,400 units in the first quarter, compared to about 35,000 units in the previous quarter.
In a separate announcement yesterday, HDB said that it will launch another 3,185 flats for sale under the Build-to-Order (BTO) exercise for this month.
HDB said it will offer 22,000 new BTO flats this year if demand is sustained.
Last year, a total of 16,000 BTO flats were offered.
Despite the supply of new flats coming onto the market, Mr Han thinks that there could be a 1- to -2-per-cent uptake in HDB resale prices over the next one or two quarters.
Mr Ismail also thinks that the resale prices will trend up, as the new supply of BTO flats is not a perfect substitute for the resale units.
“Even though there are 22,000 (new) flats, there are many people who will still choose to buy resale because they can’t afford to wait three years to get the keys,” said Mr Ismail.
“On that basis, I will see it as two different markets.” — HDB resale prices went up in the first quarter of this year, but Cash-Over-Valuation (COV) premiums fell during the same period. |

Good insight into china property.
If STI dips to 2900(as Isolator predicted) , its time to prepare to buy blue chips (not necessary this one) to add to portfolio.
Newbies can buy other blue chips and not necessary this one , just 2 lots perhaps? or few lots to try out.
My friend's son and his uni friends have already started the opening the bokerage account buying 1 blue chips and already seeing small profit.

Just returned from Shanghai and spoken to some property agents. Value housing( 2 types for sale and 2 types for rental only) cater to low income general public and migrant worker and family ) is a big thing in China now and it is their top priority. It must be done quickly and by 2015 they plan to build many many million units to satisfy the public and to avoid social displeasure. The govt believes this will lessen the gap b/w the rich and poor while still allowing for private luxurious housing to go on to meet the need of the rich. This value housing also will serve as a clever way of wealth transfer by transferring the public money to the poor thru subsidized ppty and rental, thus leaving the general population with enough cash to spend and consume. It is their HDB project & will go on for many many years. Capitaland recently take stake in Sebana investment. The latter is our HDB builder owned by Temesek & this is a good indication they are using Sebana expertise in public housing to spearhead its charges into China . In my view, Capiltaland is for long term investment and one can keep buying on weakness to slowly accumulate but do not rush in.

Newbies should take a look at the postings here on how a good counter can let them profit in long term especially comparing them in putting money in CPF.
Not necessarily buying big lots unless one has good capital to start off with.

Yummygd -
Isolator's posts on 2900 - no warning call from you to newbies, but
Other forummers said this stock is good and that stock is good - you issue warning call to newbies?
So, newbies follow 2900 wont die, but, follow buy call , will die?
hahahah!
yummygd ( Date: 25-Apr-2011 14:40) Posted:
but farmer...all there adults lei cant always be like PAP must cuddle all of us right. See newbies will learn in time not to just follow blindly. I learnt it the hard way also..I bet u did too right. adults should be responsible for our own actions. Beside imagine the newbie just follow blindly listen to this person say this stock good that stock good....u know how big his/her portfolio will be? think will consist of all e stocks in e market...den i say this newbie damn rich.
Isolator just calling 2900 because he thinks it will fall till there but he never say come n short the market with me i confirm u make money wor. who here dare to say that? no one right. can give 100 percent confirm? So be responsible for ur own decision dun blame others. u chose to follow its ur problem.
Farmer ( Date: 25-Apr-2011 14:34) Posted:
Cannot say like that mah, I think nobody deserve to lose money just by following others in this forum.
Irresponsible post will affect the newbies or green horns, just like any indecent act in public places will affect the child. One just can't say I never ask u to see or follow me when one did all these things in public places/forum right?
Bottom line: Be responsible, reasonable i think!
