Want married maybe but I doubt on the children portion

Give more leave equals to raising TFR? KNN, you sure PAP tackling root cause or not?

The thing is garment give mandatory leave for husband and wife but really nowadays the kind of workload and responsibility you can go off for so long? In some SMEs, one engineer baokaliao and only he knows all the things, really can meh?

His predecessor is salesman. He is fortune teller.

BTO not yet ready (that is what i heard from my young colleague). not living together yet due to small room space. contrary to "small space" comments, we do need a larger living space to boost our TFR.

well, the only thing i saw is SkillsNoFuture, which I dont use anyway

Best to depend on ourselves to succeed. It's only through success by our own hands that we will get a sense of achievement

maybe 3 room 800k

frankly speaking, 800k for that location for 2br is ******* cheap. I will take it anyday.

 

[stingray1211]

Then how come tfr so low? Cos most can't afford?

never about the money. look at china and India. the richer ones are the ones who have fewer kids.

the richer you are the less kids you have.

I think u and i have diff idea of the root cause. Of cos can do more but this is a right step.

U tell me lor....Which young parent want to take that shared parental leave in full and risk not getting a promotion or risk being the first name of the retrenchment list?

The thing is garment give mandatory leave for husband and wife but really nowadays the kind of workload and responsibility you can go off for so long? In some SMEs, one engineer baokaliao and only he knows all the things, really can meh?

That's why PAP's new parental policy looks nice but is not well thought out and doesn't solve the root cause. Instead, it causes another problem....

 

[Flexamoria]

he already nv hv kids.
u trust him ar.

Also a woman never get married and advice.ppl to get married

 

[Roughice]
