Kekuatan anak Melayu di Singapura ada, dari dunia korporat hingga pengusaha, baik di dalam negeri Dan luar negeri. APA yang mungkin kita perlukan adalah seorang pemimpin yang berjaya bersatukan semua untuk tujuan membawa Anak Melayu Singapura ke lebih maju lagi. BOLEH? Antara Kita perlu di hilangkan sifat curiga, ego dan bersatu untuk maju
Adakah Melayu Singapura hanya mampu menjadi Penjual Kuih Hari Raya, buka cafe, salon Dan Penjual Kain? Atau Hanya rasa puas, bangga Dan glamour jadi Artis tempatan? Anak Melayu kurang daya berfikir secara kritikal Dan kurang pandai beranalisa. Betul tak?
Please Please Please!!!! Be careful all parents out there!!! This just happened to my biras earlier today.. Do take xtra care of our children..we dont know when and where it might happen again.. #sharingiscaring
On 02/05/17, at about 1400hrs, I was sitting on the bench located at level 2 of Joo Chiat Complex, beside the lift lobby, with two of my children. One of them is my son, Yusuf Abayar, which is 5 months old, and the other is my daughter, Zaada As’isyah, which is 3 years old.
While I was sitting at the bench, I was approached by an unknown male subject. He asked me the gender of my boy. I answered him. He started to mumble to himself whether he should buy raffia string or rope.
He then said that he will buy the rope. After that, he looked at my daughter and said, ‘Aku ikat kaki kau lepas tu tangan kau, aku sumbat mulut kau kasi senyap. I will kill you’. In English, it basically means that “I will tie your hands and legs, I will stuff things in your mouth and I will silence you. I will kill you.’ After that, one of the aunty told me to follow her, in which I did and we walked away from the male subject. He did not follow.
I do not know the male subject and have never seen him before. He is a Male Malay, about 50+ years old wearing Black T-Shirt and Black Jeans, with short curly black hair and he had one eye open and one eye seemingly closed when speaking to me. I was wearing a black dress an light brown flower scarf. I was carrying a baby carrier.
I would like to state that there is a CCTV at the lift lobby area.
Singapore had the Quah brothers, then came Au-Yeong Pak Kuan, David Lee & Tay Peng Kee playing in the Malaysia Cup, Steven Tan, Lee Man Hon, Lim Tong Hai, Stephen Ng & Amos Boon followed into the national set-up.
Now we have Gabriel Quak and Gymkhana FC have Hong & Jonathan playing…
There are many Chinese players playing (see Katong FC & Tiong Bahru FC) but are they scouted and deemed good enough for our country for international exposure…
Many more Chinese players in the COEs and Prime League. I personally dont think getting the Chinese boys to play and have a career in football is the problem…
Hi Suntec đ So I just casually walked up to your information counter at Level 1, nearest Tower 4, to a smiling staffer – Li Yuwei. I asked if there were any halal bakeries around. And after repeating myself a couple of times, I discovered that she doesn’t know what Halal means.
Of course I was a little surprised but it was far from a rude shock. I tried to explain it as a concept (in a very clumsy way, because in truth, the last time I had to explain what it meant was in a weekend madrasah exam, 20 years ago). After fumbling over myself, I asked for just any bakery or pastry shop. Then I actually found myself also trying to explain what a bakery or pastry shop is.
So I also wrote down on a piece of paper the words “bakery” and “pastry shop”. She dutifully went on to search it in her system. And with that same smile (now just a little bit more pursed) she wrote down and presented to me this attached piece of paper with the details of a bakery at Middle Road. a 20 minute walk away!
I gave a smile back as I took the piece of paper and said my thanks for the help she was able to provide. As I walked away from the counter, I couldn’t help but wished she was a cute, cuddly cat instead – so that I could pet my frustrations away and forgive it for not being able to understand some commonly-used human words and religious tenets.
I hope you take this seriously and get some cats on your information counters soon. Thank you Suntec.
It is not uncommon for full time delivery riders to pull in $3000-$4000 a month on 12 hour shifts (daily). Even Uber / Grab drivers get to earn about $5000-$6000 per month (gross).
For some, this is more than what some of our peers earn in their office or F&B jobs.
Coupled with the flexible working hours, it makes this option extremely attractive.
If you intend to be a full time delivery rider / uber / grab driver, please be aware of two very important facts.
First: You do not get the benefits that an employee has.
There are no employerâs CPF contribution, medical benefits, paid annual leave or work injury compensation. No CPF means problem getting a house. No medical benefits means no pay if you fall sick. No compensation means, you pay out of your own pocket of you get into an accident.
Second: There is no upskilling.
You ride and ride. You drive every day. There is no incentive for you to upskill. Itâs a dead end job. Going to courses will actually take your time away from the road which means less income for you.
In my honest opinion, these jobs are only good for extra money or for a temporary period. If you think about making this your lifelong career, see my two points above and think again.
I think working at McDonalds got more career prospect.
