http://singaland.blogspot.com/2010/03/mirror-mirror-on-wall-who-is-most.html
Monday, March 08, 2010. Mirror, Mirror on the Wall, Who is the Most Unproductive of Them All? The Singapore government of course! Yes, we've been jawboned to be "cheaper, better and faster", but it is the government who should improve its productivity. The three ministers without portfolios are even more unproductive. Despite having no ministries to take care of they are paid more than $2 million each. Posted by locky2ky at 4:25 PM. View my complete profile. 65279;A PR Blitz Gone Bad. Did Mr Wang Say So?

singaland: Celebrate the Singapore Spirit
http://singaland.blogspot.com/2008/08/celebrate-singapore-spirit.html
Tuesday, August 12, 2008. Celebrate the Singapore Spirit. The theme of this year national day celebration is celebrate the. Spirit . I really do not know what kind of spirit we have to celebrate. We’re all too busy eking out a living that we’re more like zombies with no life or spirit to talk about. The only spirit palpable is the Machiavelli spirit of the government. The government has been refusing to adjust the wages of. Posted by locky2ky at 6:58 PM. View my complete profile. Whom Should We Trust?

singaland: July 2005
http://singaland.blogspot.com/2005_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 14, 2005. Great Deficit of Conscience. Many of us would feel vindicated now that Durai has finally admitted to what we all along suspected - mismanagement of public fund in a non-profit charity organisation. But what comes to mind is why do we have to wait for Durai to dig his own grave? Surely someone in NKF should know of the wrong doings and should have blown the whistle? Have the people there lost their sense of values? And how about our high moral government? Friday, July 08, 2005.

singaland: World Standard Government?
http://singaland.blogspot.com/2009/04/world-standard-government.html
Tuesday, April 21, 2009. In a letter sent to the media, National Environment Agency CEO Mr Andrew Tan wrote:. When markets and hawker centres are being upgraded, grassroot organisations and their advisers can choose to have a temporary market which is not provided for under the Government’s Hawker Centres Upgrading Programme. The above letter is disturbing in the following ways:. Firstly, persistence rat infestation is not considered threatening enough to public health for NEA to intervene. Why the Gover...

singaland: Why the Goverment Hates Singaporeans
http://singaland.blogspot.com/2008/08/why-goverment-hates-singaporeans.html
Tuesday, August 26, 2008. Why the Goverment Hates Singaporeans. I gained so much enlightenment after reading Ms Chua Lee Hoong’s profound article, Why they hate Singapore that I’m able to demystify several mysteries in Singapore . One of these is the government’s resistance to adjust the wages of Singaporean workers. By Ms Chua’s doctrine it would be because the government hates Singaporeans. And our sin: for being non-talented. Don’t believe? Again according to Ms Chua’s doctrine it would be because the...

Writing about Singapore's economic outlook is boring. It's not that there is nothing to say, it's that there is nothing to say about Singapore itself. Growth in the economies of Indonesia and Malaysia. Third was global semiconductor sales. And rounding out the top four was domestic construction. You're right it does. The next...
