[Mothership] OYK shoot Jamus Lim for the Environmental Tax on Airlines!

[BohemianSG]

Minimium wage law can be applied to Sporean only . No ?

Even Spass and EP has minimium wage set for foreigners. Even maid has a min wage set.

So we are sporeans are afraid foreigners complain sporean min wage is higher than them and they can demand for more if not equal min wage ?

Dun confuse the two. Spass and EP is minimum qualifying salary before hiring a foreigner. It is pegged at ABOVE the average sinkee salary to ensure that sinkee is not undercut by cheaper foreigners.

Min wage is pegged at below average salary but at a living wage salary to ensure that workers are not exploited by employers.

The two are different.

The opposition and WP supporters are so low iq that they imagine min wage means they will have 4.5k salary for their min wage? The calibire of oppo and wp supporters... tsk tsk

To me, looking into environmental issues is kind of an indication of a far thinking government

Hard to convince a population who is trained to looked out just for themselves

do you know my car no drive i still need to pay for parking and maintenance fees?

car is diff....u can use for personal or commercial use. u can also sell it or scrape it.

aircraft take time to sell and u pay people to scrape it....

aircraft on the ground require a lot of money to maintain....is like burning $ in furnace. if bird nesting or moisture damaged the equipment, is another huge amount to repair....
then those certification...routine maintenance , weather etc....

aircraft safety is no.1 as it involve hundreds of lives....anything goes up, it will come down....it can be landed or crashed.....

i understand u love JL but this isn't the right time to debate on environmental tax........
when the population are worry about the unemployment...... those who lose their jobs for few months are under depression as we said.......

I have never once said i love him. I really don't know where you pluck it from.

Hedge hedge. Don't cherry picked whatever you want for argument sake.

End of the day, you have rightly pointed out. U can raise everything that affects Singaporeans during the pandemic which affects millions but not the right time for airlines. Got it.

Aviation pollution is very high. Even worse is cruise pollution, they should be taxed even more.

And what nonsense is "flights to nowhere", a complete waste of all resources.

How many plastic straws can equal a single flight?

Then explain this?

Pfft. At this point it doesnt really surprise me any more.

SIA losing money because management behkan. Stop blaming covid

Other airlines got smart management who got the foresight to convert passenger planes into cargo planes to meet surging demand for cargo flights

Meanwhile SIA burning taxpayer money to pay pilots generous salaries to shake leg at home.
