 三位一体,

职总、英康保险的困境,

也是政府、人民行动党的困境。

也反映应对策略,了解民情的困境。


从英康保险的困境,看行动党的应变能力,应对策略,和民情反馈。几十年来,我们已经习惯政府、人民行动党和职工总会,三位一体。这点政府已经自我认证,职总是具有影响力者。


因此,英康保险目前身处的困境,也反映了行动党政府的困境。让英康企业化,是一种脱离困境的手段、策略。但是,对于怀念建国初心的人,这么做却违背社会主义的惠民色彩。走向资本,追逐发展,不也正是政府在走的路吗?


向外寻求资本,因为本地无人愿意出高价买下51%英康股权。这像不像,本地企业,本地工人,不愿意做,我们只好开放,让外资、外劳,外来人才,自由进来。或许有些有其正当性,有些没有正当性。但是,这条路,却是近二十年来,新加坡经济发展高速的选项。


倒过来看,英康在高速经济发展中,为何没有得到甜头?反而从市场主导者,成为陪跑者。国人所得增加,英康没有从中得利?职总解释为政府已经推出有利于平民的医药医院和养老退休保险,因此,英康在这个市场没有发展机会。所以,企业化,引入外资和国际管理,才能取得长期发展的机会。事实上,是求存。


职总和行动党政府的应对策略,就是这么简单。让市场来决定,企业赚到钱,政府税收增加,然后,把这些增加的收入,进行惠民政策,一部分分配给保单,减低保费;一部分税收,发放津贴、消费券、扶贫。


这套做法,为什么会被人认为违背初心?是不是分配不公平?政府的医药保健和公积金养老制度,真的这么好,好到英康的长期发展受到伤害?还是,行动党在收集民意,反馈民情方面,欠缺周全考虑,只看到市场、资本、钱?这不是第一次,也不是最后一次困境。而且,困境和挑战会越来越多、越大。

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 inserting a single c
