      •\tInfant Care cost is severely high hence it is deterrence to young couples. Additional Subsidized Infant Care and government regulation on fee hikes as each time there is a subsidy. The centers will also increase their fees which makes the subsidies irrelevant.

      •\tDesignated Infant Queue at Polyclinics to help families who are unable to afford PD or private care. The current waiting time is 1 – 2 hours since the queue is lumped together.
      •\tEnsure bilicheck is made available across private and government clinics
      •\tRe-look at the waiting time at KK Children’s
      •\tMandatory reduction for K1 and K2 class size from 25 to 15. This is to facilitate active and interactive learning.
      •\tPrimary School Classes should reduce from 30 to 20 classroom size.
      •\tOffer support and funding to the sports scene. If you take a look at the Badminton, Tennis or other websites, it shows lack of engagement for young people who would like to try the sport in a competitive manner.
      •\tAbolish COV and impose penalties if someone flouts the rule by doing under table payments.
      •\tLook at the real estate properties and what justifies for them to triple hike rental fees which cannibalize small shops and give way to monopoly. This is stifles people who wish to start a business in a retail front.
      •\tSTOP trying to make everything NEW!
      •\tAllow the option of maximizing CPF to cover maternity bills instead of a CAP.
      •\tIntroduce Science from P1. (without grading please)
      •\t1 month paternity leave and 20 days flexible paternity leave during first 18 months of the child.
      •\tCCL is capped at 6 days overall. Regardless of the number of children, the total childcare leave entitlement for each parent is capped at six days per year until the year the child turns seven years old. This is as if they expect kids to fall ill all at the same time :s . CCL should be staggered to the number of kids you have.

        GLORYmum:


        Thanks limlim for the advice. I am a newbie on ksp, was expecting discussion in more amicable fashion rather than aggressive and interrogative manner.
        well.. some will tend be a bit like \"aggressive and interrogative\".. you can engage in healthy debate with your reasoning or ignore them if the style is unacceptable to you..

        of coz there will also be discussion in amicable fashion as there are other members too.. 😉

        Anyway, you are free to voice your opinions and state what you want for SG. 3B is also free to voice his opinion/comments (even if he appear aggressive).. bcoz he may feel that what you want for SG maybe \"not in the best interest of SG\"? (subjective, of coz).

        We respect freedom of speech ya? So we respect what you say as well as allowing him to express what he wanna say (as long as its not personal).

        Just don't reply him lor.. if you feel uncomfortable.. :evil:

          Regardless of whether we agree or disagree with another person's view, I feel we should not attempt to exclude anyone, or express that someone is unwelcomed.


          We support freedom of expression ya?

          You can choose to engage, or ignore, a particular person if the style is not comfortable for you.

          But chasing someone away seems.. un-gentlemanly leh..

              What I want for SG


              Efficient, Clean, Reliable and Affordable public transport.

              I feel that the govt should do whatever it can do to encourage public transport. For those who seek more luxury, they can take taxi also.

              Public transport like trains, buses, is more EFFICIENT. Per liter of fuel burnt carries more person from one place to another compared to private cars, where the fuel is expended in carrying metal more. WASTE fuel and causes unnecessary POLLUTION.

              How about taxi? let look at the space occupied by each vehicle on the road. A taxi and a private salon car occupies around the same space… But a taxi probably spend >50% of the time ferrying pple around, whereas a private car spend like 90% of the time in the car park occupying a parking lot on land scare Singapore doing NOTHING!

              Also, I feel that LTA and TP could step up their patrol and arrest those inconsiderate pple on the road who modify their vehicles illegally or never maintain their vehicles causing a lot of air and noise pollution to our environment.

              Upz for a Cleaner and Greener Singapore!

                I want a 清正廉洁 政府。 you can be friendly buddy with the rich, but should the friends 犯法,there shouldn’t be any close one eye or go easy intervention by anyone in the govt .




                Singaporeis very small, though most of us might not be a friend of a friend or you know me, I know you, there are still some groups whereby it is "I know u, u know him, he knows me"…let’s not be like one such country whereby the rich has too much of say n power.

                  Extra school holidays like 10th Aug, youth day etc… should be made into public holidays so that parents can spend more time with kids.

                  Extend childcare leave entitlement to parents until the kid completed PSLE.

                      This is already put up by NTUC. I went to post this on MCYS Facebook a couple of months back coz I had a shock when I found out the number of \"days off\" for kids which thankfully I can leverage on my DD2 CCL for.

                      The answer was \" Thank you and to be directed to MOM\" as this involves employment. :faint:
