20130321 HDB showed a Direct Sure Key to Singapore Success http://bettersingapore.blogspot.sg/2013/03/20130321-hdb-showed-direct-sure-key-to.html Today, former Chief Executive of HDB, Dr Liu Thai Ker shared the history of HDB at the Ministry of National Development Auditorium. This is an important sharing at a critical moment. It is so important because today, we are at a junction of where is Singapore heading. We have been prospering, our policies, strategies have been admired, even emulated by many around the world.  Yet in the name of growth, we have abandoned the key institutions, the core principles that bring about our success. Key Mission of HDB - provide affordable housing for all, latter, when HDB succeeded in doing so, HDB developed to provide better housing for all. One singular body with  clear mandate,  without competition,  yet able to be efficient, expedient,  decisive in achieving the objectives,  good lon...

20130320 Why 3PM Must Immediately Step Down

20130320 Why 3PM Must Immediately Step Down http://bettersingapore.blogspot.sg/2013/03/20130320-why-3pm-must-immediately-step.html This is not about giving priority to Singaporeans as General Tan Chuan Jin is saying. After decades, the 3PM is still not able to create jobs suitable for a first world nation's citizens, all literate, many college graduates. You read 3PM concluding speech on the White paper, he said we need the foreign talent to come to do construction, to take care of the old age, and he pause, paused.. He does not know what type of jobs other than these domestic expenditure jobs he can create. These jobs do not help our export, do not earn income for us to buy water, rice, ikan billis, never mind about petrol and spares for SMRT. These increase our import of sand, cement, steel... These speed up bleeding our wealth for more construction workers, nurses... More cheap labors, angry cheap labors, going on more MC, turn up late for work, sit on cranes after ...

20130215 Proper Mode of Investigating CPIB

20130215 Proper Mode of Investigating CPIB http://bettersingapore.blogspot.sg/2013/02/20130215-proper-mode-of-investigating.html The Prime Minister cannot assign CAD to investigate CPIB. CPIB is entrusted to investigate corruptions, especially those concerning highest level of government officers. CAD is a junior organization, that is tasked to investigate commercial crime. Corruption is not a trivial matter, like a white collar crime. Investigating CPIB officer's corruption by CAD will collapse the painstaking effort his father devoted to construct Singapore. This Prime Minister may not be trained in the principles of law and have not assembled a team of able to assist him, guide him. Both Micheal Bloomberg and General Prabowo at their visit here, in their speech reminded us each of them have a team of able advisor. Bloomberg will impact world corporate leaders confident in Singapore. What did Bloomberg reported lately about Singapore? What happen a leader of neighb...

20130207 Gillian White Paper - Inderjit Singh to Explain http://bettersingapore.blogspot.sg/2013/02/20130207-gillian-white-paper-inderjit.html It is so easy to say we need more, new foreigners, they are either talented to get high pay or cheap labor that we can deport at ease. Before i write the promised article on Gillian White Paper - A Navy Commander must reasoned. I just wrote a note, yesterday, to DPM Teo on some point he may need to consider. Something more vivid, easier to understand yet this government, this Gillian White Paper cannot explain is how do you choose foreigners to head even administrative position. Let us not talk about so many Li Ka Shing Professors to LKY SPP that Dean Kishore does not even today personally introduced them. Middle East Institute Prof Hudson brought along a secretary. I asked why? So she went home. Why do i need to ask? Why not the University, why not the Ministry of Finance? Inderjit is an eminent Alum...

20130204 Gillian White Paper - Madam Speaker Stated without Speaking

20130204 Gillian White Paper - Madam Speaker Stated without Speaking http://bettersingapore.blogspot.sg/2013/02/20130204-gillian-white-paper-madam.html Actions louder than words. Realities louder than actions. Two statements Madam Speaker made clearly without speaking. First Madame Speaker has been serving faithfully for this nations for decades. She is a minority just like former Speaker. She is with the governing party, she has shown track record, she is respected by audiences more vocal, she was not abused by audiences. Why is it only after a one term MP, cultivated personally by DPM Teo, failed and step down, is she appointed as Speaker. How many able, more capable, more devoted Singaporeans who are critically needed, yet they are ignored, bypassed?  Do we need more, greater, severe disasters? Or do we really need a irreversible destruction of the governing party, before these Singaporeans are called to served? Second  Madam Speaker is wearing a headdr...

PM Lee admits govt lacked 20/20 foresight  By May Wong |  Posted: 28 January 2013 2145 hrs http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/singaporelocalnews/view/1250767/1/.html http://bettersingapore.blogspot.sg/2013/01/20130128-cna-pm-lee-admits-govt-lacked.html He merely stated a symptom of critical lack, but not what is needed and how he is going to overcome. What is not clearly stated is also that the policies have been focusing on short term indicators, housing transactions, figures on economic growth. He did not clearly state he realized leading, governing a nation is NOT about the above, but about improving the life of Singaporeans, building a better Singapore. Ant this can only be by cultivating Stronger Singaporeans. If the PM did not realize explicitly, our failure wi...
