you think the govt will even consider any of your line Warren. remember, they don't really have to work hard to gain vote like the election in Europe and USA. because there is no strong opposition, down the road all those tiny oppositions were swifted from left to right to be able to blend in and survive. and don't forget.--defamation shuts many outspoken chaps's mouth.
our govt impressed china citizen so much that they were praising our govt which is giving out money $600, or $200 a couple of times a year. What is this amount to compensate the enormous increase in a decent HDB flat huh..............still PAP will win no matter what.
just hope that it's vote is 55% of all, like one of the year in the 80's.After the win, price will go up and up because it's now a sister city of Monaco -- a rich man paradise.
Most importantly, many single can't afford a flat now..I believe

SDP takes issue with YOG spending
Letter from James Gomez
Singapore Democratic Party
We refer to the article “YOG had a S$56.7m marketing value: Report” (April 7). The Singapore Democratic Party (SDP) questions the relevance of the “marketing value” for everyday Singaporeans in the context of the high cost of living they have to face every day.
Instead, Dr Vivian Balakrishnan and the Ministry of Community Development, Youth and Sports (MCYS) need to be publicly accountable for the failure to spend within the YOG budget. In particular the MCYS’ over-spending by three times its original budget of S$104 million and running an event that was riddled with incompetence and mismanagement needs to be addressed.
This election, Singaporeans can expect the SDP to take the Minister to task over his handling of the YOG as he is expected to be the PAP candidate for Holland-Bukit Timah GRC, which the Singapore Democrats will be contesting in.
Next worry is  : greying singaporeans.
HDB flats getting more expensive and majority will not want to have  more  children or not even want to get married and have children.

ECB hikes rates, marking exit from crisis response
FRANKFURT
The increase in the ECB’s benchmark refinancing rate by 0.25 percentage point to 1.25 per cent marks the exit from the central bank’s accommodative policy response to the crisis. The ECB also raised its deposit rate by 25 basis points to 0.50 per cent, and increased its marginal lending rate by the same amount to 2.0 per cent.
The ECB is particularly concerned that oil prices — near two-and-a-half-year highs and exacerbated by rising tensions in the Middle East and North Africa — could further boost inflation expectations.
Yesterday’s announcement “makes the ECB the first major developed economy central bank to hike rates and the decision will cement its reputation as a single-minded inflation fighter,” said ABN Amro economist Nick Kounis.
— The European Central Bank (ECB) yesterday raised interest rates for the first time since the 2008 global financial crisis to counter budding inflation pressures in the 17-country euro zone, but it signalled the move was not necessarily the start of a series of similar steps.In JAPAN, pensions are for POOR OLD SLAVES ! ! ! !

As for the Opposition’s pledge to be full-time Members of Parliament, Mr Teo said each MP’s job and experience brought diversity to the party. Neither do MPs work individually — it is important to bring together capable people to deliver quality service

Future singapore propertie scenarios -
The escalating property prices is an undenying facts, and, how is government going to 'inject' the vitamins into this area to add  MORE VALUES to it and make it value for $$ for the invested properties,. -
1) a true blue education hub - build more quality universities to attract foreigners send their children here to study and invest a place to stay
2)  medical hub / wealth management - attract the mighty rich to come here to seek physical well beings as well as medical treatments.
3)  convenience in transportatino and linkage of the entire singapore
Some of which  are already in progress, and,  are we smart enough to TAP on the valuable progression ,  its up to individual's choice.  :)

As a small SME which has the Highest Paid Board and Staff in the WORLD, if every Singapore SME pays the HIGHEST WORLD SALARIES to its STAFF, every Singapore SME will attract the BEST " AAAAA" TEAM and become WORLD CLASS public companies ? ? ? ?

— A public-listed company, however successful, needs external auditors and independent directors to provide checks and balances. Likewise, a Government needs an Opposition. Moreover, a competition of ideas is good for politics and, therefore, the country.pharoah88 ( Date: 07-Apr-2011 11:45) Posted:
