Bargain Hen: Singaporean's Fault That Cost Of Living Is High
An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:
Source: The Real Singapore NG ENG HEN: IT'S YOUR FAULT THAT COST OF LIVING IS HIGH BECAUSE YOU BUY EXPENSIVE THINGS Post date: 11 May 2014 - 4:47pm Defence Minister Ng Eng Hen said yesterday that Singaporeans find the cost of living high because we have high aspirations to buy lots of expensive things. He gave an example of how hand phones have become somewhat of an essential for children these days and most households have TVs and multiple computers. Ng Eng Hen said that in a sense, cost of living has been going up because people want to have more things per household. He also noted that real wages (wages after taking into consideration inflation) have been going up. He was speaking at a dinner held by the Singapore Medical Association attended by over 450 medical professionals, marking the 55th anniversary of the Singapore Medical Association. He also spoke about what changes need to be seen in the area of healthcare, citing three areas for improvement. Dr Ng said that we should be focusing more on living well instead of living long. He also suggested that GPs should have a wider scope so that they can help to ease the pressure on hospitals. Another area where Singapore's healthcare could use improvement is to make healthcare jobs more attractive to Singaporeans. He also said that doctors need to be socially conscious and they should have a say in how the healthcare industry is run in Singapore. Click here to view the whole thread at www.sammyboy.com. |
