I still clearly remember in 1990 a 12 year old boy took bus 198 from jurong to queensway shopping centre and it was wow! Same shop same place till recently. I was active in sports as a sch boy and in those days queensway was the place to go for huge variety and bargainable prices. Anyone remember sports station chain shops at shopping centres in those days? I think it was the predecessor of world of sports or royal sporting house? Hmm, talking about famous chain shops fr the 90s. Pertama, supreme records, costplus, man master... 198 go the firestation side? 197 go the hospital side? lol last time go sportlinks is high class de... i still wearing panda sch shoes in sec sch.. only poly liao work part time can go sportlinks 😜 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kangadrool Supersonic July 12, 2020 Share July 12, 2020 (edited) Actually most of these businesses that close/went bust due to covid will come back from another competitors. So, the jobs lost will be replaced by jobs newly created by new competitors (at reduced salaries probably). So, there you go.... Jobs Jobs Jobs 100,000 Jobs....LOL It's CTR ALT DEL as in MS.

I fully support Sp Air Force should look at way to reduce such big big ticket item spending, as our economy do not need to buy now as our DGP do not warrant it, it's citizens money we are coughing out. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I have often wonder if there should be 2 groups of chief in the health cluster, One in Singhealth, one in National Health. Should there not only be one CFO and One CTO rather than one each? Would a single source of IT help to align the IT infrastructure and get the cost-benefit of a larger purchase? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
