[jeffprobst]

i think they will hold strong but considering how dirty trick done to curve out a portion of Aljunied, shall see the result.

Wah lan. the whole scene of him enjoying himself, seriously.... need better acting. Jo Teo could teach him a few.

Right? Not that I don’t like any side but he doesn’t seem to be genuinely enjoying himself?

All

I foresee them suffering from groupthink. How to own self check own self? Need a credible and loyal opposition to be an effective check and balance to the gov.

Afternoon got problem. Mini-stars all say import moar talent. TYS sey wan. Huat ah. Easy 7 figure celery.

He don’t have the aura… saw his video on mothership looks abit fake.

Agreed.

They don’t seem to understand sg dissatisfaction with them?

Paper generals aren’t empathetic, no EQ and worst of all, so elitists.

We have enough of paper generals…

We want leaders with human touch …

 

[Coffeelix]

No need aura. If the PAP bigwigs decide that he should have a big role to play, he will get It, regardless whether he can impress the people or not

So true.
That is if sg allows clean sweep …
If that happens, don’t ever kpkb…
Sg asks for it…
U V what u want to see happens for sg …

Think the overall escalating cost of living and taxes is over everyone head, regardless of rich of poor all are affected. The may have some influence over people decision. How much voucher can they give siah, when they continue escalate all the cost. There will be a time most cannot take it anymore.

With trump tariff, jobs lost. Trade drop, Singapore business affected. This will make price hike.

Short-Term (2025): Inflation in Singapore is unlikely to rise significantly due to the tariffs alone. Economists from DBS Bank and OCBC, cited in early 2025 analyses, suggest that core inflation might edge up to 1.5%-2% by year-end if supply chain costs increase, but this assumes no major escalation beyond current tariff levels. The MAS’s October 2024 decision to maintain its currency appreciation policy supports this stability, and deflationary pressures from a global slowdown could keep prices muted.

Longer-Term Risks: If tariffs escalate (e.g., to 20% on all U.S. trading partners, as Trump has hinted) or spark a full trade war, inflation could climb toward 2.5%-3% by 2026. This would depend on sustained commodity price hikes and a weaker SGD, which MAS would likely counter with tighter policy.
