The Straits Times Nov 30, 2009 Falling productivity an issue Matter likely to be a key issue tackled by growth panel, say economists By Fiona Chan THE declining productivity of Singapore's workers is likely to be a key issue tackled by the Economic Strategies Committee (ESC) when it releases its recommendations in January. This is a problem the government-led panel - set up to find new ways for Singapore to grow over the medium term - should address, say economists. Over the last few years, Singapore's rapid growth has been mostly driven by a massive increase in the workforce, said Citigroup economist Kit Wei Zheng. But it is clear that growth powered by importing foreign labour is simply not sustainable, he said. Between 2006 and last year, the number of workers in Singapore jumped an average 6.5per cent a year, largely due to liberal immigration policies, said Mr Kit. By last year, foreigners accounted for a third of the three-million-strong labour force, up from only a quarter in 2004.Singapore's economy boomed correspondingly with average growth of 8.2per cent a year between 2004 and 2007.

Need some advice from the bros here on market rate so won't kanna carrot, Assuming I buy a 1DIN HU (probably Pioneer 8850) cash n carry, 1. How much would it generally cost to install, my stock is 2DIN ? 2. When they install, do they convert the spare slot into place to put things? 3. My telescopic type metal antenna will automatically extend once I on my stock unit regardless of radio or CD. I have a spare button on dash, can installer configure such that I can use this spare button to control the antenna? 4. Spare button cannot be depress currently. If no.3 can be done, does it mean that I should go back to dealer and get some relay or switch to place behind this spare button? Thanks
