May he prefers the guard's uniform. I know some come with stars on the collar, so he can feel like a general.

LTC prolly earns arond $15k. To hit astronomical pay, you've got to be a scholar of the elite kind. Farmers can get max of $10k plus only.

We don't need excessive foreign workers.

To those bosses who say more and more foreign workers are good because it helps lower their labour costs, I say: Open the floodgates and invite FOREIGN TOW KAYS to compete with these bosses. It will boost competition and everyone will benefit, RIGHT? To encourage more to come, ask EDB to throw money to fund these foreign enterprises to set up in Singapore, construction firms, coffeeshops, factories, taxi firms, NTUC, you name it.

TOP ONE? Not that he’s not proud to reveal, from what I see he just looks down on you but prefers not to have you relate the name of his university to the scorn heaped on you.

farmer is a term to describe local grad or non top university grad, so top university grad “working as farmer” is logically impossible. You’re like saying a rabbit is not a rabbit, which of course is senseless.

whats $300k gonna do for you when one retires at 45/50??

:P
how many people will have 300k when they retire?

How many degree holders can get 1st payslip which pays them 3k at least?

I would say SAF is a good career choice if you have no other better options available.
