CPF

If you read the details properly, she was on public assistance, she did not have to work, but she wanted too.

I just find it disgusting that people can politicize anything , even someone's death. She has been there for a long time, but no one cared except for the lady blogger and a few kind souls, but now she is death, she is been used to politicize a erroneous point.

Sigh.

We already know that there are people around preying on our elderly as can be seen around Toa Payoh and chinatown. Reason? Their CPF. Stories abound about how our elderly are cheated of their CPF through the promise of love. People wasting their money at the casinos.

Not saying that government should be rigid and allow someone to starve while having large balances in cpf but it should really be case by case evaluation and not opening the floodgate.

That said, all those complaining about the govt here, have you done a single day of voluntary community service to the needy? I believe not, cos if you have, you'll know that there are numerous help lines around like monthly food ration and monetary payouts from govt or other welfare organisation for those who meet the critera.

Hiding behind a computer screen and complain is easy. Why don't you spend the time to volunteer your service and really see the real world out there?

Go figure.

How do you know others have not done any voluntary work? Please provide ground.

you say help you see that 80+ yo cineleisure aunty colon cancer literally work until die, she cannot stop working because she need money for her medical where is the help from government?

yah people can say government provided help gave her food rations for her daily necessities but what she needed was healthcare help was misdirected?
