Yewheng Twincharged February 24, 2017 Share February 24, 2017 (edited) never ask also they gonna do lar! When there is a profit to be made sure they will squeeze us dry lar!What I mean is the socialist policy.. Example.. There are people who get cheated due to phone call scam, car rental scam or etc.. Then people see it and want government to step in so as to ensure it will not happen. So what happened, if government step in, they may need to spend more resources to maybe set up a new agency, maybe create New regulations and that may result in extra cost for compliance from companies etc. It's a lose lose situation for everyone because of maybe less then 1% population kanna cheated. The fact that these people kanna cheated are not street smart and they need to learn kopi money lesson to be street smart so that it will not happen to them again. This is far more better then everyone suffer because of government step in. This is one example. When there are a lot of socialist policy, do expect cost to increase indirectly either by taxes or due to compliance..

Evillusion Supersonic February 24, 2017 Share February 24, 2017 Ya, sort of, so we better don't keep ask government do this and do that if not the effect will be price increase in indirect way..usually the ones that ask are the fans of miw. They voted them in so most likely they will think the gov owe them big time. Ask any alternative party supporters.....they will be too tulan to ask from the current gov because they know its a 2 way street. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's that compared to their monthly 40k salary. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamburger Hypersonic February 26, 2017 Share February 26, 2017 I can't go private clinic for my quarterly blood test as I do not have CHAS card. The poorer one may have a choice but I don't.

So where am I then? Neither here nor there. Go polyclinics is my solution then. Actually is it really necessary to go to Polyclinic for quaterly blood check up?? Unless you got some underlying condition, Age or doctor says so one Normally I go only once a year for blood check up (usually like 2 pages long) and like once in maybe 3 -4 years request for full thread mill stress test at SGH(NHC) (cost about $400 subsidized rate with full dont know some nuclear test - take up almost 1 whole day if scan is not done properly) 'cos I'm heavily into endurance sports and got very bad family history of heart attacks; SATA cheaper but not so comprehensive as NHC (sgh) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
