The recent months till now, everything is rising. Remember the one-sided conversations with that Crazy Cab Driver on my earlier posting: http://rockingmat.blogspot.com/2006/12/animal-noises-from-cabby-it-was-quite.html
Now the BUZZ on Increasing the Employers' Contribution to Employees' CPF.....yup, that's the kind of increase we want even for an Unemployed Person like me......well actually I'm partially unemployed since most of my work is on a freelancing basis...like teaching rock guitars, giving tuitions...and blogging? Any full-time blogger out there? Can't believe there is any....if there is, well, actually they are STILL getting hand-outs from Mummy & Daddy...pretty sad, huh...
BACK to the CPF story, well some sicked Economists believe that the increase should NOT be done now since it may send a wrong signal to potential investors and also current employers may start looking elsewhere to do their business due to the increased cost.
Well, what can I say is this:
We are having this Mid-Income SQUEEZE here in this FINE City. Because, for the lower income, yes there are a number of help from the Govt that they can take advantage of.
But if you are employed with 2K a month & asking Govt for help, all I can say is wait long-long lah Brother......better count the hairs at your armpits...YUCKS!! sorry for the analogy.
BOSSES should be aware about the increased Cost of Living of their employees. It is real absurd when there an increase Cost of Living & no co-relation to the increase of income, thus Leading to the REAL SQUEEZE.
So Govt, PLEASE UP THOSE CPF!!!!
