qlqq9 SG china? that is beyond what we can do, why don't u protest to the local gahmen not to keep increasing the essential?
HyperFocal SG First, we need to convince them that cycling to work instead of driving cars, is better for their health... They need to go back to pedalling their bicycles....
HyperFocal SG Do you know, HOW people here can protest? All you need is for everyone (or almost everyone) to not go to work for one or two days...
Seven_Dragon SG You are wrong In singapore, everything (utilities cost, transport cost, food, school fees, properties, minister salary etc etc etc) goes up except our salary everything goes up, where got go down one
Mat Toro SG I read that singaporeans consume more feul per capita than even US. perhaps we can cut back our energy consumption before we start complaining.
rooki SG A good way to cut back energy usage is to increase tariffs. Hell, I suggest a tax on the usage of plastic bags at $1 each. That'll teach those who double bag items and ask to bag the most trivial of goods. One easy way to economic growth is to keep business costs low. One big component of business costs is labor cost. Keep labor cost low, and businesses will flock to Singapore and contribute to economic growth. Put 2 and 2 together, and what do you get? Stagnant wages and rising energy tariffs.
