      Well, am keen in some cooking or sewing courses; definitely not stressing my brain cells further.

      This is the kind of thing I would be interested in, but it doesn't feel right for me to take time off for this now. Also, I find that I am fine learning online and reading up, so I'm not sure I want to be bound to a course.

        SL, it's a cycle thing? For the past 3 to 4 years I had felt drained and had blocked out acad stuff, only to focus on my sewing craft. But I seem to have reached the stage where I would like to take up some acad learning once again. And since learning funds are there to utilise, lets make use of given resources.

          Received my workfare letter recently. I am a bit confused by the website - it listed four points for who qualify for the subsidy and one of them is if we earn a gross monthly salary of not more than $2000? So earnings above that means we don’t qualify for the subsidy even if we get the letter? Or is the website in need of updating?

                Look at the exclusions - they look at value of home, no. of properties, and spouse's earnings too. It's not so easy to get!

I think they send the letter out based on your declared income, but they can't verify the other details easily. So you will have to see if you aren't excluded because one of those other criteria.

                      I think it cannot be based on income. I don’t meet the income criteria. But if Star received it as well, maybe Ah Gong really giving out angbao?

                        Starlight receives only bills :stompfeet:

                        Maybe it is good to clarify if Ah Gong has made a mistake
