PM Lee reshuffles Cabinet: 2 SM, 2 DPM, 1 MM

last SG · 2009-03-27T09:15:15+00:00

Professor S Jayakumar will relinquish his appointment as Deputy Prime Minister, and will hold the post of Senior Minister in the Prime Minister's Office alon...

Atobe SG

if it never happen, than how?

willing to bet your balls that there will be 15% GST?

If the GST does not hit 15%, then the ERP charges will be increased, or that more ERP gantries will be built as more COE are also released to create some semblance of traffic congestion that justify the additional ERP gantries - (instead of widening existing roads and highways, or buidling new roads or highways).

With so many more Ministers in the PM Office, it looks like LHL needs alot more time to meditate so as to relieve stresses - that will surely reverse the remission of his cancer in his butt.

Singaporeans are now paying S$3million PLUS for a PM that spend half his time meditating to ensure his cancer remission remains steady, while we have to fork out another $2M+ each for MM, 2 SM, 2 Ministers without Portfolio.

The report seems to have missed out Lim Swee Say as a Minister without Portfolio - as this post has always been given to the Secretary-General of the NTUC.

Going by the rate, we'll soon have 2 deputy MMs and 4 deputy SMs.... and then maybe when we are experiencing talent bleeding within the cabinet, these positions will go to FTs.

US only have 1 vice-president JIC, why would we need 2 deputies, 1 senior to advise the PM and a senior-senior to advise the senior?

I wonder if our PM retires, MM promote to what? "Daddy"

angel7030 SG

Yummy!

I think MM Lee going to get "promotion" liao. "Senior Minister Mentor" Lee Kuan Yew!

SM Goh becomes Minister Mentor Goh Chok Tong.

PM Lee becomes Senior Minister.

Woah, our government is expanding, all thanks to "Senior Minister Mentor" Lee Kuan Yew! But dont worry, after he becomes "SMM", his days will count down very fast.

Do you guys want to see the world's first ever "Senior Minister Mentor"?

Frankly i rather see them put money on infrastructure or investment in the biomedical and creative industries.

I fail to see the value of building more roads/highways or even widening them besides satisfying the individual epeen of owning a car on an island that hardly needs it.

Besides, by upping the ERP gantries and increasing the COE they will be reducing the demand isn't it ? I don't see how doing that would do anything but reduce the revenue they're receiving from it.

In this downtime, our govt was so nice to say they will freeze their wages or cut pay. But damn!!! they start to promote each other and increased their pay thru Promotion....wha lau, very clever govt...i go talk to my Uncle about it.

I think alot of car owners will disagree with you.

on the point of not building more roads, and increasing the cost of driving a car.

Miracles&Prophecies SG

It's a comedy laugh it all out. Hahahahahaha

Gary: He said to me at the lift lobby 90% of the exact words - ”Mr Tan,if you walk out of here tomorrow,you might get killed.You might meet with a mysterious accident,you might disappear and nobody will know what happened to you! Mr Tan, some things and people in this country you cannot offend! Some people are above all things! You better make sure you know this! Mr Tan,we can arrange for things to happen to you.You understand or not!”

FUCK YOU AND FUCK THEM

It would be their individual opinions, and as this is also my individual opinion. I'm not that unreasonable as to say their opinions are invalid.

But personally i see a car as a luxury and hardly a neccesity here. I still see it as something you would buy out of convenience, not something you buy because you explicitly "need" it. Of course, there are cases where your family have the sick and disabled

yup. so the government cannot keep everyone happy. that's why when there is a new rule or a new course of action, I think about why, how is it better, or inevitable first, than think of the cons, and be blinded by the cons.

There are sometimes when a later decision contradicts an earlier decision... but that also need to see the situation and stuff like that.

I don't drive, but i don't think ERP is working, therefore the needs to widen roads. ERP sucks is the government fault, it seems good at first though, but the sukiness is evident now...

Wellll it is kinda dumb, setting the ERP at a time when everyone goes home.

iceFatboy SG

my stand, why do we need so many "seniors"?? yes, we may need their experiences or even their relationships with other countries, but surely, we don't need to create a role (with full paying and traveling benefits).

also, what are the chances of our Pm travelling and another of our DPM not in country that we need another DPM to backup? isn't that a bit of overkill?

seriously, I am just thinking, what can I or you even do with this appointment? or even future appointments? yes, we can come here, make "noises", but any impact?

Can! We can don't vote for them lor. See if they will resort to playing with the voting figures if they did not get enough vote to take over the regions?

REDUCE REVENUE?? now ERP can be paid by credit card ok, me use credit card one, so its kind of luring you into the debt, and beside the from a mere 70,000 car owners till today 700,000 cars and other vehicles on the road just one bip only for one vehicle consider 1 dollar gone to govt pocket, whau lau!!! how many bip going on lor.

Consider 1 day 1 millions, one month 30millions, one years 240 millions...wow!!! I dun mind subout ERP from govt, me take care of it, i give them 70% me still can become millionaires!!!!
