从1910万到33万游客,

新加坡旅游业如何从新启航?

情况比Facebook到Meta还要严重。。。




从1910万,274万到去年的33万游客;旅游业收入从2019年的277亿,2020年下降到48亿,再下降到去年的19亿新元。不论游客人数和收入,巨大的下降幅度,令人胆战心惊。


新加坡旅游业如何重新启航,新航如何再次起飞?


这已经不是短期问题,至少,这是中期问题。国内的通货膨胀问题,也不利旅游业的复苏,除非游客带着买屋子兼旅游,办公事兼旅游,家访兼旅游的心态;但是,这些游客人数会多到哪里?难怪,旅游局不对2022年做出展望。。。

或许,政府不敢轻易做出判断,走向不明朗,或者,根本不知道如何走。他们唯一明确的方向是继续支持新航,延后机场的发展。还有把建设旅游业的钱,分配到其他行业去。


新加坡旅游业面对的困境比元宇宙的脸书还要严重。改名后的脸书,虽然希望元宇宙的世界能够带动业务,但是却面对不受年轻人青睐的困境。使用脸书的人数,已经到达瓶颈,脸书也不再是年轻人的首选。因此,股价大跌,市场价值惨跌超过25%,比新西兰、新加坡的年国民所得还要多!


元宇宙在事情还没有发生的时候,就已经预测到必须寻找新的方向,新的业务发展。而且,财力雄厚,有能力可以通过购买其他公司来壮大自己。


新加坡在旅游业面对巨大问题时,也考虑到重新分配资源的问题。如何分配?最需要协助的人和企业,如何获得适当的分配和援助?


我们的储备雄厚,只是方向和方法在哪里?我们从淡马锡和政府投资公司的投资活动中,看到了什么?看到什么策略?如何激活新加坡本地企业?


没有。


我们看到又要加税,费用再起,开支节节升高。。。


旅游业人数和收入下降的问题和幅度,比当年英军退出新加坡的情形还要严重。


或许,很多人都忘记了。


我们当年的勇气,领袖魄力,策略决策,刻苦努力,还能寻找回来吗?


储备高,有钱了,但是,我们的领袖素质、能力、竞争力何在?因此,PAP只能说他们的领导是共同协作、共同领导(collegial leadership)以及和人民在一起,人民伙伴(Partnership with citizens)。



这种与民同在,共同责任的精神,似乎说明,将来出什么事,这是大家的责任,大家的负担,不要把责任全部归咎于PAP政府,李显龙和4G。

Sub-standard PAP and the Singapore education system

I make a 'policy shift' when I hear the debate of right politics, constructive politics and sub-standard opposition. My original aim is to discuss about “Su Dongbo, Zhang Juzheng and Singapore education system”. The discussion will end with a sub-standard PAP, in particular from the assessment of the quality of PAP potential candidates. Another policy shift is to discuss it like a play, a drama and make it more entertainment rather than a sub-standard political discussion. Act 1 Gangster’s demand Imagine a sense in the Hong Kong's gangster movie (or a godfather movie), the gangsters' master is shouting at his poor opponent and demand him to give a price for his wrong act. The poor guy without any resources can only offer his body or his service to work for the master. Back in his own chamber, the master is still not satisfied and continues to shout 'don't play, play, you think you are hero, you think you are tiger, or superstar or acting ...

EBRC objectives: Stop “Out of Aljunied”, Stop SDP Breakthrough and “Negative-Asset” Ministers.

First of all, we have to congratulate the Electoral Boundaries Review Committee for creating more competitions, especially, multi-cornered competitions in the East. When making changes, EBRC aims to achieve 3 goals: To prevent “Out of Aljunied” for Workers’ Party.  This is the most important objective. To prevent Singapore Democratic Party making any breakthrough in the North and Central.   To look for a solution to retire “negative-asset” ministers or reduce PAP damages. From the reported claims from different political parties, we will expect multi-cornered contests not only in single constituencies but also in group representative constituencies. The PAP hopes to have a repeat of 2011 Presidential Election. Then Tony Tan won the Presidency when he got only 35% of the votes, a narrow win.However, a win is still a win. He did in even in the very last minute, after recounts of votes.    How to achieve multi-cornered contests? By i...

Is Prism Project Another Central Planning of the PAP?

There are 3 scenarios under the Prism Project#1 of Institute of Public Policy.  However, it looks more like the central scenario planning of the People’s Action Party. From the instructional menu of Prism Project Primer #2, participants were guided to a situation in 2022 and they have to imagine, within the Primer framework, to come out with 3 possible scenarios in Jun-Aug 2012.  2022. What a coincidence! Not long ago, PM Lee declared that he would like to hold the prime minister post for another 10 years. The other coincidence is the similarity between the 3 scenarios and the candidates of PE2011. How competitive and sustainable are the 3 scenarios to the people of Singapore and to the PAP?   Will the scenarios produce competitive and sustainable Singapore, Singaporeans or the PAP?  Perhaps, as what the Chinese say: planning cannot always catch up with changes.   And planning sometimes turns out the wrong, bad and unexpected results, espec...
