Mr Goh also made a plea to young couples who belonged to the
"double income no kids" (DINKs) group.
Drawing from his personal experience, Mr Goh said, "[b]My wife and
I are fortunate that our son and daughter are not DINKs. They do
not have a double income. My daughter is not working; my
daughter-in-law is also not working, so no double income.
They have three children each, which means my wife and I have six
grandchildren - and they are all granddaughters. And because they
are all granddaughters, there may be a chance that my son and his
wife, my daughter and her husband may want a boy - or that's what I
hope!"
But he reminded Singaporeans that this was a problem that
could only be reversed by the people themselves, and not the
government. - CNA /ct

Drawing an annual salary of
MILLION DOLLARS of taxpayers' money, it is easy for him to speak of
his children's fortunate positions.
Will our children not have the same fortunate experience if we are
paid also similar annual MILLION DOLLAR WAGE PACKETS ?
With such a superfluous annual salary, surely as parents we can
help our children in their future, allowing them to have a
headstart over other less fortunate Singaporeans ?
Is it any wonder that his Son is a senior partner in the Parkway
Health Group, and his daughter - "a quitter" - married to a
"kwai-loh" ?

fortunate NOT to be "DINKS".
