Not to engage in blamestorming, more business closures will be on the way. Tourist and

shoppers keep away due to costs. GST is not a hyperbole. It might be a cure for their coffers,

but it literally destroys its people and the country. Whoever invents this tax ought to be

sh*t.; October 31, 2020 5:21 PM

election, they might not be so lucky!; October 31, 2020 8:32 PM

the exchange rates and cost of the products. This was even before Covid-19. At some eating places and restaurants, people checked out the prices on menus placed at entrances, before walking away. This was before the Covid-19. Business costs went up with GST on rentals, food, Maintenace fees so on and so forth which were then passed on the consumers. Buyers and diners pay more GST when they purchase or eat. Conclusion, everything ends up expensive. Businesses are not charitable organisations.; November 01, 2020 12:25 PM

Think she is referring to the government to transform for what its worth.; November 01, 2020 5:13 PM

attract long queues outside. The customer's waiting does not directly turn into profits for

the restaurants. So why doesn't the restaurant raise prices to eliminate the line? The long

line is sending a signal to the people that it is a good restaurant, worth waiting for,

instead of going across the street. Cost-effective encourages spending to boost the economy.; November 05, 2020 10:55 PM

1) Cut time on travelling.
2) Cut money spent on tuition to hopefully more births. Shaping young children having time to explore nature and have a childhood. Taking into account for promising late bloomers to improve the situation.
The change should not be immediate so as for parents and student to adjust?

Make sense?; November 06, 2020 5:43 PM

All other remaining owners to contribute to pay for the ones who are losing money.🤣

Sellers Stamp Duty- 1st year 12%. 2nd year 8%. 3rd year 4%. Pay to the government regardless of losing a large amount of selling.🤢; November 08, 2020 1:09 PM

Cut unnecessary anxiety for everyone. Of course, some extreme kiasu parents would not be happy because they shun their children mixing with other low-income groups. These people are normally the snobs who do not know the meaning of (we the citizens of Singapore pledge ourselves as one united people, regardless of race or religion.)
