of course the ministries need deputy minister also mah, and also
some secretaries, you thought the whole big ministry only ONE
minister do all the work? 
then he can tiao lou liao...so busy, think also he think, execute
also he execute, plan also he plan, type also he type, blah
blah....like work 24/7? 
Is it NOT better that each one of them "tiao lou liao" - if they
cannot do the job, then for the Singaporean Tax Money to be used to
pay for so many people to help the Minister to do a better
job to CONTROL us ?
Do we need two secretaries to support a PRINCIPAL Secretary ?
Do we need one or two Permanent Secretaries, when there is also a
Second Minister and a Minister of State in one Ministry ?
With the Ministers already paid MILLION DOLLAR annual wages, what
will be the wages of the administrative staff that support the
Cabinet Ministers ?
How often have we seen successful corporations being overbloated
with staff, as they create more work for
themselves ?
No wonder we have incidences like the NKF, where 'monkey
see, monkey do'.
