So, he was ok with a racial PE and not a GRC system to represent minorities in less than 3 years? Or 158 selectively chose what to publish? What's the choosing criteria by 158? It could either be the hardest job in the world as a 158 editor, or the easiest.... Hmmm... My question to ST is simple. Is Ang Keng Kiat another phantom just like Ashley Wu? Ashley Wu will say everything is good with the public transport system, despite trains having faults up, down, left right and centre. 😁 ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant post. Every once in a while, I need to go back to my online dictionary to confirm if there is any changes made to the word "Meritocracy". I was always confused by our govt and 158. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are always good article there. If i post here also no use, boh lang read it. That's true. I can't read chinese beyond pri 6 standard and google translate wouldn't do the articles justice. 5 minutes ago, Lethalstrike said: My question to ST is simple.

That's why they had been slaughtered outside of SG, in projects where it is needed to matter the most. Largest foreign direct investor in India as of today, but DBS, SIA & Singtel losing tons of $$$ as we speak. My most sincere hope.. Is for them to immediately review CECA for it's costs and benefits over the past 15 years, and on the foreigner PMET already here. Do a clean up. Tear off the contact if shown to be useless. I'm sure the loss of good PMET jobs is one of the factors pap lose their votes. 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That will also depend on whether there is a cancellation clause in the contract and if there are penalties involved. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talk about fairness mah...😁 Can also include funding of PA using our tax money?

If the 2 NCMP dont perform, thats the end, no need waste time.. If PSP walk the talk about the issue on NCMP, then they sld just give up the posts, but that will kill them even faster.... If PSP declines and WP team at EC also declines which is a possibility since they already have 10 MPs, the next 2 in line would be Paul T and Chee from SDP. Fireworks in Parliament from Chee for sure😃 5 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PSP will take up the NCMP, as much as they are so against it, they will not give it up. That's the only way for them to make some noise , otherwise, they came like a tiger but leave as a kitty, is very sia suay one. They will come out with all kind of reasons/ excuses to send 2 in. Paid to make noise, which idiot will forgo such ho kang... As for WP, they want as many voices they can supply in there as possible. No such thing as I have 10 full pails liao I don't want 2 half pails. How many come also I take. Let the half pails go make more noise, hopefully, can convert into full pails next GE... All these talks of don't want take up NCMP all smoke only lah, just forcing voters to the corner. Edited July 13, 2020 by Tianmo 5 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All these talks of don't want take up NCMP all smoke only lah, just forcing voters to the corner. Agree on your many points. SDP carrying CSJ baggage is gone case. Can't take a seat in this GE when there was a reasonable swing towards the Opposition doesn't bode well for them. Making noise of not wanting a NCMP seat is understandable before and during GE hustings but now GE is over, I do expect PSP to grab with both hands if anything, at least for exposure and experience for their WC team members. WP might also let their EC losing team be NCMP if PSP declines for whatever reason, this was how Leon, Gerald n Dennis came into prominence so I'm sure they will grab that seat if given. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And how many civil servant will dare take the position? Not scared to lose out on promotion if he does too well? My take is that if the support isn't monetary then it is an empty gesture.
