I am in the industrial field day in and out dealing with almost 80% WP, SP and EP from all over. But my Singaporean graduate friends mostly out of job, why? Simple, they have to pay more, even if they ask for the same pay, employer's mind thinking is they are not for long.
As long as there is option for cheaper workforce and outsider who wants to be here with mean packages, it's deal. The end result is more people coming to share the same size of cake.
MANAGEMENT LOCALISATION
REVERSAL in New Millennium
? ? ? ?
In the 70s, Top and Middle Management positions were taken by EXPATRIATES.
Over the 80s, there was the MANAGEMENT LOCALISATION PROGRESS to reduce EXPATRIATE OVERHEAD.
Progressively, C-Tier and M-Tier positions were filled by local Singaporeans.
SUDDENLY, in the New Millennium, there is a TOTAL TREND REVESAL back to the 70S.
Local Singaporean faces are now MiSSiNG at the C-Tier and M-Tier appointments.
WORST STILL, even Local Singapore Enterprises STARTED REPLACING C-Tier and M-Tier appointments TRADITIONALLY HELD by LOCAL SINGAPOREANS with FOREIGN EXPATRIATES.
Is this a PROGRESSION or DEGRESSION or DISGRESSION
of LOCAL SINGAPOREAN MANAGEMENT TALENT DEVELOPMENT ? ? ? ?
Tripartite Labour movements over 45 years still iMmatured ? ? ? ?
Over 45 years, have not developed TRUE Labour Leaders ? ? ? ?
TRUE Labour Leaders must be from the LABOUR RANK & FILE ? ? ? ?
They must RiSE from the bOttOm [if not HELL] ? ? ? ?
illogical for Labour Leaders to DESCEND from MANAGEMENT [if not HEAVEN] ? ? ? ?
sEEms like there is NO LOCAL Labour Leaders ? ? ? ?
may be should CONSIDER IMPORTING FOREIGN TALENT as Labour Leaders ? ? ? ?
After all, the Foreign Labour Component is now HUGE ? ? ? ?
Our PM Lee said to be keen to bring in another 100,000 FT pax, then what happen to this...
Wage increase likely to be better than previous year, says Mr Lim Swee Say
"We received feedback through our union leaders that some of the workers are finding this overtime becoming too excessive. When we talk about improving productivity, we're not talking about getting workers to work longer hours, because that is not sustainable. So we have to find ways to work smarter, in a more productive manner, so that higher output need not necessarily be done at the expense of the work-life balance."
teeth53 thot - What does it mean to all ?, they come another 100,000 workers.
It mean this - 42 per cent of elderly workers earn less than $1,000

I travel rather frequent to western countries and often people there ask me where I am from and with my answer "Singapore", they will ask me again "Is Singapore part of China?" |

Many are from Tungsun India and many, many more from Tungsun, PRC-China, not surprising. Something like that, oni state in S.E.A. promoting Mandarin as official language

Management can increase own pay.
is this logical ? ? ? ?
SCAM ? ? ? ?
FRAUD ? ? ? ?
Management pay should be approved by SHAREHOLDERS at EGM ? ? ? ?
Management appointment should be by PUBLiC OPEN TENDER and AWARDED to lowest BiD on specfied Terms and Conditions ? ? ? ?

The only way I see is to cut the top executive pay by 40%. They are overpaid for the least responsibility job. Their pay cut can bring in more capital to lower wages worker and also have more good quality projects too. But... no top people will want to see their own pay cut... Got to wait for the serious global crisis that last many years in order to see this happen... lol..  |

New Australian PM Gillard BUSTED the MYTH that population growth is the panacea to National Growth.
Population is no no to National Prosperity UNLESS everyone of the lower 50% percentile population has increasing annual income over and above the annual inflation rate plus the bank prime rate.
Otherwise, population growth is equal to citizen poverty growth.
DON'T be SWEPT OFF by the average Per Capital Income.
Increasing average PCI is nOt equal to Growth in individual citizen's person annual income.
All average Statitics are SCAM because the figures are nOt suppOrted by TRUTH in the LIFE of the citizens.
