His crime is lying on oath.

PS insist that during the " i will not judge you" moment , he want her to take ownership and responsibility of what she did.

Obviously you and everyone of us interrupt it as the " i will not judge you" moment that he is giving choices to her. Let her decide what she want to do.

If PS says in a softer tone during COP that he was giving choices to RK , we wont have this trial anymore.
But it is a bigger political n moral loss for him if he admit that he is giving choices to RK.
PS, who draws half-a -mil salary as LOTO, lied. When you are LOTO, you need to know that one small mistake in integrity will be your undoing. In Pakcik's opinion, he made a very poor judgement when he didn't censure RK immediately and do the necessary.

We did spend a big fugging hole in the reserves which explains why the MIW is keen to raise GST twice in 2 years to get a balanced budget after the 5 year term....
Which btw we got back in a SINGLE years after that. 72B i remember this figure.

By jacking up GST, etc.
Which is the easy way out, and then after COVID straightaway go and double down on the population ponzi scheme to sustain the demand for housing to continuing jacking up HDBs/BTOs' prices.

And attract those billionaires come here wash money, buy over shop spaces/GCBs/Set up family offices, etc.

Why do you think houses and other COLs, etc. are skyrocketing now?

Even want to sell off NTUC Income to Allianz, speaks volumes about this current batch of "leaders" and the "leadership" under LHL.

Our playbook now is just serve as tax haven to attract billionaires and big banks/MNCs come here park money + continue the population ponzi scheme to Jack up properties' prices.

Sustainable or not, in 30 years we will see.

He's certainly not LKY type. LKY probably will say I don't care whether you are SA victim or the whole world will know you are SA victim or not. Just own up right away.

I'd think that had it not for the JSS, supporting of local industries, hospitality, tourism attractions etc ... many locals might have been laid off back then. And surely this will lead to far reaching adverse consequences.

For me, during Covid era, ... pay & travel freeze, zero increment, nominal bonus.

He probably regretted defending & backing Raeesah during the 2020 GE ... over her social media posts.

Trump’s maga is supposedly populism to win votes.

Takaichi is also likely one for protecting the native japanese.

I supposed sinkies dislike populism

Stable can potentially mean stagnant too.
