      Our ministers are earning big bucks to govern a little red dot. There are many poor people like the Lims. Have they slipped through the fingers or ignored? Rising medical costs as well as food. It may not be possible to help each and everyone, but it’s really heartbreaking to see this old couple having to take an hour to reach home.

          and what is your solution and action plan besides hating ?

          In view of rising medical costs.

          1. Reduce the restriction on medisave usage. Allow use for ALL hospitalization charges (A&E admission etc..), even outpatient.

          2. Reduce the deductible portion for medishield claims. Make it a more manageable amount, like, $100~$500. Reduce Co-Payment amount to maybe 2% ~ 5%.

          hmm Am I raiding the reserves.....?

          Ask the higher income to donate part of their salary?

                Not being able to use CPF is just ridiculous…


                Isn’t CPF supposed to provide for elderly??? Above certain age, say, 65yo, they should allow CPF to pay for medical expenses at polyclinics and hospitals…

                  COE is already $60K and you have not even bought the 4 wheels.
                  Next COE will show a more drastic dip.
                  I'm staying at home more to avoid the crowd...really terrible phobia seeing so many people...rooted to the floor holding on to hubby's hand.
