My friend is a used car dealer. His business has been bad last year. It became worse this year.
He applied for the self employed relief (I think it is call SIRS).
He was rejected.
He appealed and fought hard. He spent some time to fight his case. Finally, his appeal was successful.
He received $9,000 for 9 months. It was helpful.
Question - does it mean that those who do not know how to fight their case will lose out?
Why does PAP introduce this kind of scheme that is quite arbitrary and unfair to those who are not able to fight their case?
Is there an alternative?
Sure, there is.
I prefer that the government allows people in financial need to withdraw their CPF savings, or to take a loan from the government that needs to be paid back.
There is no need to create arbitrary rules and require people to fight their case according to these rules and to have administrator send a lot of time dealing with tens of thousand cases.
Do you agree?

Things are only really bad when properties are being dumped at 25% less everwhere, not a few. So far none has happened. We are still good.
To mitigate the high risk of Covid-19, nightclubs should be closed permanently. Places like that are dark, crowded and poor air-flow. What do the people gain from such places other than being high on alcohol? Drunk drivers and a danger to society and themselves?
If C-19 were to spread in a nightclub, it would be disaster for the crowd.
SINGAPORE (THE BUSINESS TIMES) - Payment delays among firms in Singapore have risen for another quarter, with retail and services posting the highest jumps out of all sectors, amid the economy's coronavirus-induced partial lockdown.
Slow payments, defined as those made at least 30 days above terms, increased to 45.78 per cent in the second quarter, up 3.2 percentage points from 42.58 per cent in the first quarter, which had marked a near three-year low, the Singapore Commercial Credit Bureau (SCCB) said in its latest quarterly report on Wednesday (July 1).
Tot, I watch the live debate on the 4 parties, but as usual, ended disappointed. The PAP 's usual rehashing and defensive of their fecking policies. That Chindian picked on one candidate like he still has an old score to deal with him!
