Then how about I die defore the 20yrs is up Or how about like this lah.... i sign contact with Govt, they give me my CPF in 0ne Lump Sum..... if i don't die before the 20yr is up.... kill myself lor. Our dear Minister forgot a very important question...... [b]With our low pay to remain 'competive'...... how the HELL will we get to have the minimum sum in the CPF at the 1st place. We as worker, simply don't earn enough to put the $$$ inside..... and lets be honest here, 10-15 years from now, wouldn't the minimum sums be rise again And yet we must have low pay to ''Remain Competive".... Dante should have added..... "All hope abando, ye who have enter here..... Your CPF is no more..... " [/b]talk about earning, getting CPF, many still have problems getting jobs! So what is the gahmen doing to minimize unemployment, then we talk about CPF.

" [/b]Simple theory... if each man has 240K before 20yrs and about 10% of our popluation is that range ... so you have 400,000 CPF payer so total about another 96 million "cheated by the Govt"
_Aaron_ SG No doubt. But bleh, after getting a degree and working for a few months to get enough money to leave, i'm probably around 27. But i guess that's young enough. You never know whether they need you there unless you try. At most you come back disappointed, but at best...
will4 SG Is there a possibility this latest ruling is to curb the no of local or PR who want to move to other countries n they gave up their citizenship or PR status?
