Realistically, Singaporeans are not so smart. Why local bosses rather pay more and hire Epass? Because they get the job done. Maybe singposreans can use skill future and upgrade more. Strong currency but weak

Because work from home is making companies realize why should I pay for expensive rent & staff in sg when I can employ more staff next door.

Productivity improvement through cost cutting and outsourcing. Then empowered the contractors to do ownself checks ownself. It's a PAP invention.

As what LKY said of younger generations are not hungry enough to be competitive globally, Period! The younger generation demands WFH, 9-5 job, high income , less stress work but demands higher pay.

a lot of so-called "tech people" do not contribute to revenue. they are there to make things easier for employees. so when time is hard they're the first to go.
