Do we have sleeping ministers?
After that, Singapore gets branded for being a good repulsive place for shopping belt - thanks to an idiotic Jover Chew at Sim Lim Square.
CASE is helpless. Why can't they be more like the USA's Better Business Bureau with powers to shut down dishonest retailers/companies? Have a demerit system not unlike the ones used to penalize errant or can't be bothered drivers.
And you DO NOT force citizens or tourists to be CASE members before you help them. Charge a $3 admin fee for every case you are WILLING to handle, would be a much better way! This is why, CASE, you suck!
I am still grasping with the fact that the HDB allows dogs, but not cats to be kept as pets. If cats were often sick and brought in money for our vets and "improve" Singapore's economy, will the situation change? Someone has to suffer for the benefit or hobby of another? Hmmm...
And now this....needy students who use their parents' CPF have to return them to their parents' CPF accounts even if it means they would be earning a miserly National Service pay. This kid's father owes him - according to his story - to a tune of $50k (calculations estimated from the time he is 3 years of age).
One thing I have learned is you cannot rely on the authorities for everything. They are definitely not saints. I wish for better governance or not at all.
