i think someone bring out the topic before why do singaporeans
need hundreds of thousands of civil servants?
one of the main issue is govt should start about reducing the
nos of it employ across all ministeries and try to find synergy
across all statutory boards as part of the reform. we seldom heard
anout the PAP mentioning reform but often high tech here and there
but still employ maybe more workers dispite all the monies dump
into the technolgy infrastructure.
they tell companies about productivities but the most
unproductivities is it own minsteries!!
like i mention how is the deficit going to be finance.....thru hike
of fees?
well the size of public sector's budget relative to the
size of its population exclude defence, police force, fire
fighters, are huge. Considering Singapore
post, power and telco are private.
The govt keep having creative ideas of rent seeking
policies such as ERP, COE, etc.... instead of allowing private
sector to generate services they took over and generate govt
revenue and yet still unable to keep within its budget.
Not to mention that there are no welfare program in
Singapore.
They continue to preach high salaries for civil servant to
attract talent.
They continue to seek easy way out to problems and create and
spend more on problems they create. "10 million dollars
immigrant intergration program"....the future tax on all
singaporean.
