Any bros saw this article...?

 

Just some quick observations...

a. I am quite sure I didn't get half of that 5.3%, and so did my whole company on average

b. Is the government going to increase costs of living based on such data? ie raise bus fares again

c. how did the statistics come about in the first place?

 

Quite frankly I am worried when I see such stats..shows I am way below national average once more..

Class 95 again.

Class 95 again.

 

I'm pretty sure it's 90.5fm LoL...

 

MOM neber say for who between $xxxx to $xxxxx, neber say from which sector, whether it's construction, marine, banking & finance, etc. Nobody knows. Well done MOM for consolidating info that is so ....general. LoL...

 

CPF contributions rose could be due to low wage workers work overtime to keep up with living expenses. That doesn't equate to wage increment.

I only got abt 3% increment, and I am below average :(

 

Where do they get the survey done from? only a few companies? or just get some feedback forms from companies.

 

If feedback form, companies can just beh-teh abt this.
