The journalists at one time called this sort of propaganda
selective comparisons or justification syndrome choosing statistics
to glorify certain presumptuous feats while hiding the real
problems unsolved.
Through this sort of culled statistics all the problems will be
explained away or denied as if by professonal information when on
closer analysis the problems remain unsolved.
For example, MOM has conveniently concealed the extent of
true unemployment problems counting the employments of Permanent
Residents as employments of residents to dilute the original
unemployment figure for citizens.
Furthermore how does the MOM define unemployment. If a person is
unemployed for some time say more than 20 months due to recessions
and could not get any jobs and become permanently jobless is he
included as unemployed.
If these long-term unemployed are excluded of course again the
actual number of unemployed will also be diluted or lowered.
In the same manner, statistics on skill or educational
development are lumped up government can easily look more generous
when actually the government has levied a separate SDF tax for
certain purpose where millions were collected from companies but
the spending to promote skills were quite doubtful in nature.
If these millions spent were to be analysed it will be found
they were not spent to help developing skills needed in new
start-up technologies but on mundane for the bigger companies which
had to be withdrawn in many cases because of certain abuses in the
past by companies.
Education fees paid are shooting up because of incorrect
policies aimed at paying up for the infrastructures which should
have been financed out of taxes like COEs, ERPs, Housing Tax, Land
sale profits, stamp duties etc.
So through taxing and hoarding of taxes paid as mentioned
education fees will have to be charged on par with other countries
to pay for costs of infrastructures all over.
True, but then again, a ranking of 25 for a government that claims
so many "world's no. 1" is hardly anything to cheer about.
It's kinda amazing how DeerHunter is trying to say this is good
news, if he had some common sense as to what was good for his
agenda in here, he's better off not starting this thread at
all.
What can we say?
Apparently our SAF is buying more ROFLCOPTERs in light of his
latest great mishap of judgement.
