REACH
[10:29 am, 19/10/2020] +: Over $5.5b to be paid out in Jobs Support Scheme from Oct 29
Over $5.5 billion under the Jobs Support Scheme (JSS) will be paid out to more than 140,000 employers from Oct 29, to help them retain their workers amid the Covid-19 pandemic.
This will help businesses pay the wages of some 1.9 million local employees, the Ministry of Finance (MOF) said on Monday (Oct 19).
With this latest round of payouts, the total amount disbursed under the scheme will exceed $21.5 billion, said the ministry in a joint statement with the Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore (Iras).

What do you think of tripartite partners’ updated retrenchment framework?
A day after the National Wages Council issued fresh guidelines on pay, tripartite partners followed up with an updated framework for retrenchments signalling that the job situation ahead remains grim.
Employers must ensure objective criteria, such as ability, experience and skills, are used should they need to retrench workers. They should also lean towards retaining Singaporeans, while recognising the importance of permanent residents in their workforce.
"The tripartite advisory on managing excess manpower and responsible retrenchment calls on employers to lean in favour of Singapore citizens," said a Ministry of Manpower (MOM) spokesman.

[11:34 am, 19/10/2020] +: 1,900 jobs on offer in growing electronics manufacturing industry since April, nearly all in PMET roles
The electronics industry continues to grow amid the coronavirus pandemic and there are some 1,900 jobs on offer since April, the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) said on Monday (Oct 19).
The vast majority of these jobs are for professionals, managers, executives and technicians (PMETs), with the majority in technical roles.
Speaking at a press briefing after a visit to semiconductor firm GlobalFoundries on Monday, Manpower Minister Josephine Teo said that while some may think that they need a technical background to work in the electronics and larger manufacturing sector, this is not necessarily the case, even if many of the jobs on offer are technical roles.

1. Business environment still grim.
2. Job prospects likely to be poor, retrenchment likely.
3. Union, government, employers must work closely to minimise retrenchment, take pay cut as 1st choice and if not possible, train workers to take jobs in growing sectors.

S'poreans snap up SIA dining offers to support airline, enjoy experience
18 Oct 2020
More than 900 seats that were available for SIA's Restaurant A380 @ Changi dining experience were sold within 30 minutes of bookings opening on Oct 12. Prices ranged from $50 for economy to $600 for Suites.
Two aircraft will be deployed, with guests occupying about half the seats to stick to safe distancing guidelines.
Ms Amy Tay booked a Suites lunch for Oct 25 using the 80,250 KrisFlyer miles she took years to accumulate.
Tech consultant Felix Wee, 28, who has secured a spot for a Suites lunch on Oct 24 is worried SIA, which does not have a domestic market, cannot recover as quickly as airlines elsewhere

My comments -
"SIA is now burning money.
Analysts say that airlines can only rebounds 2024 - 4 years later.
Now barely a few months, all money raised $8 over billion - half have been used up.
https://sg.yahoo.com/news/singapore-air-burns-through-half-of-cash-raised-in-two-months-022446513.html
My close friend contribution :-
SIA can explore this :-
Instead of visiting the airport, visitors also take a fake air flight with in-flight meal.
Not a bad idea as airlines can also earn revenue through such passenger visit.
Revenue not great but in support of SIA, enjoy a meal enjoy in flight entertainment. Can also have fake captain announcements.
A whole package approach -
And this is package with sg local tours and staycation initiatives.
Check in thru changi airport, board flight, enjoy meal, in flight entertainment, "disembark" received by local tour guides, check into sg hotels. Etc
Impt to invoke nationalistic response to help sg companies and businesses

My close friend comments: Got to sleep over inside first class cabin? If not, SIA should also offer overnight stay in first class cabin for Singaporeans too. Those who cannot usually or never ever able to afford first cabin can book a one dinner, one night sleep over on SQ plane.
My comments: Hahahaha.
SIA only offer 3 hour 1st class suite lunch or dinner.
No overnight sleep.
I think fly to nowhere - overnight sleep then is possible.
But environmentalist make noise.
My close friend comments: No need to fly. Just operate like staycation.
My comments: Possible.
But the price I think will have to be higher.

It’s quite pointless to ask for public perception if it doesn’t translate to benefits on the ground. That’s my 2.14 cents..
[12:21 pm, 19/10/2020] ☸️ Danny 心:
1. China is surging ahead with its digital currency - DCEP (digital currency electronic payment).
2. It is a digital epayment wallet and need not have bank account - similar to bitcoins or Facebook Libra - using Blockchain.
3. It is a debt honour by China central bank for epayment.
4. It is independent of yuan currency exchange.
5. Once China people travel overseas, the digital yuan epayment cannot take place unless it is link to their bank account with yuan currency exchange.
7. It is not using internet for digital yuan to effect epayment. Cellular connectivity allow digital yuan via eWallet to facilitate epayment.
6. Singapore should see how our currency exchange can integrate with DCEP to preserve our financial hub with China as yuan currency exchange. Else it may dent our yuan exchange business.

Most S'pore public servants will have secure Internet access on work laptops from Nov 2
Lester Wong
PUBLISHED 15 October 2020
The majority of the 146,000 public servants here will be able to access the Internet securely without the need for a separate device come Nov 2, thanks to a new remote browsing technology solution.
Secure Internet Surfing (SIS) will allow public servants to use their work laptops when surfing the Internet for information. They will also be able to log in to social media sites to make text-based posts, as well as open links directly from e-mails and documents, the Smart Nation and Digital Government Group (SNDGG) said on Thursday (Oct 15).
SNDGG said the roll-out of SIS, which was made possible by recent advances in remote browsing technology, will improve productivity across the public service.
Remote browsing technology works by creating an isolated container which handles all Internet content accessed by the user and prevents direct interaction between government systems and malware or viruses lurking on the Internet.
The container can also be configured to filter out certain types of content deemed unsafe to further reduce the risks of malware infection and data theft.
Public servants on SIS will also be able to upload files to the Internet, but only for approved websites.

Virtual browser can be a permanent solution to resolve the Internet temporary Internet Surfing Separation (ISS).
A separate physical internet device need not be procured to do the virtual browser.
The same intranent end device can launch virtual browser to browse Internet without needing to use separate internet device to surf Internet.

Virtual browser solution will be like the VMWare VDI (Virtual Desktop Infrastructure) ThinApp or Citrix thin client - whereby it inherit the following security features :-
(1) It operates with a virtual server.
(2) The virtual server will maintain a golden virtual desktop clone.
(3) When the desktop client login to the virtual server, the virtual server will download a virtual desktop clone to the client.
(4) the virtual desktop client - come with its operating system and web browser - that is logically segregated from the client physical desktop.
(5) It means that users can make use of the virtual client to browse the internet - but any files cannot be saved into the desktop physical client and vice versa.
Thus any attack from the internet via the virtual client will be limited to the virtual client and cannot take over the physical client that connect to the intranet.
(6) When user logout from the virtual server, its virtual client will disappear.
This is a safe approach to browse internet without physical separation from the internet.

This is the same concept of :-
色即是空，空即是色。
"Physical is Virtual, Virtual is Physical".

It should be noted that :-
(1) The Virtual Server that dish out virtual clients to the desktop users - should be hosted in a Public DMZ - protected by the following slew of security measures :-
a. Firewall - where ACL is to filter inbound and outbound internet traffic restricted to Public DMZ only and not allow to enter the Intranet.
b. SSL Decryptor - to decrypt web content to allow for deep packet inspection.
b. APT (Advanced Persistent Threat) - to perform Virtual Patching for zero-day attack, deep inspection on content, application and user, sandbox detonation for unknown threat, flag, display and alert known threat.
c. Full Web Reverse Proxy, and Forward Proxy.
d. WAF - Web Application Firewall to protect against SQL injection, Cross scripting.
e. IPS - Intrusion Prevention System to monitor, detect, alert, respond, protect against known threat and unknown threat.

My suggestions is for the Gov to have measurable kpi numbers to measure these outcomes with some margin of error. If it's good, people will feel it and reap its benefits. There will be little feedback from them but on the other hand if you start hearing "noises" then it's time for G to take a closer look at the source. My 2.14 cents

Tengah offering central Aircon system to residents - I believe is DCS (district cooling system).
Wonder why not roll out to HDB residents.
Then no need to buy individual Aircon.
