@Babe:1. Dr Ng En Heng is a surgeon, but he is touted as an excellent defence strategist as Defense Minister.

2. Bill Gates is a drop out from university computer science, but he build Microsoft and develop MS OS that dominate all computers - a software conglomerate that is worth more than $1 trillion.

3. Some of the best hackers never study computer science - but is able to hack many sophisticated network systems in the world.

@Babe:1. I have never work in a bank and financial systems.

2. But I build an authentication system that more than 10 foreign banks and financial institutions subscribe to my company services.
All it takes is alot of common sense.

@Babe:1. Previously a high place doctor berated Philip Yeo, a heavyweight civil servant of not having medical background and should not lead in developing the pharmaceutical sector.
But Philip Yeo did created a pharmaceutical sector that form a sizeable percentage of our manufacturing sector.

2. Minister Health Ong Ye Kung is previously a civil servant started his career in transport policy.
Now he is a solid Health Minister involve in tackling COVID pandemic and done a great job in health ministry.
Does the health minister need to be a doctor before he can become health minister?

3. SM Lee Hsien Loong is a mathematics, computer science and public administration graduate - never in financial industry - but he did a superb job as Chairman of Monetary of Singapore (Finance).
So these are highly intelligent people with alot of common sense and can adapt in any roles they are assigned to do.

@Babe:1. Mdm Ho Ching is engineer by education and training.

2. She is a defense engineer with Mindef. And then join ST Engineering doing engineering.

3. But she is appointed to be CEO of Temaesk Holding Sovereign Fund and grow the fund from $90 billions to $381 billions before handing over without financial background.

@nil:To your examples… all just came across as mediocre ministers. Don’t need to put them on high pedestals… they are are paid very high for their jobs

@Babe:Singapore has the highest GDP PPP per capita in the World.
Which aspect of the Ministers are mediocre?

@Babe:Top 5 Global GDP (PPP) per Capita Leaders
The most recent figures from major global financial institutions demonstrate Singapore's dominant economic standing:
Singapore: \(\sim \$150,000 – \$173,000+\)
Luxembourg: \(\sim \$140,000 – \$158,000\)
Ireland: \(\sim \$140,000+\)
Macao SAR: \(\sim \$125,000 – \$135,000\)
Switzerland: \(\sim \$105,000+\) [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

@GoodMorning:Did all of these person do it themselves, or did they hire the persons with right skills to build it? Do not mistake the bullet for the gun. You can say the person died because of the bullet, but without the gun, the bullet is nothing.

@Babe:So you already draw the conclusion on my behalf.

@Jac Chow:Does it mean a single cannot work in a child care centre? I know other teachers and even I became child care teachers.

@mypeaches:Are you seriously comparing between a child care teacher during office hours vs raising a child...? common sense isnt so common after all.

@lmao:trolling ah. parenting and taking care of a random person for a living is not the same. 😂

@IfIwasminister:No link. What a logic leap u have.

@Babe:@Babe:So on the same page, chairing a population policy versus parenting also no comparison.
This is common sense right?

@AhQiang:The fact @IndraneeRajah refused to acknowledge COL is the main issue is why TFR will never be resolved. Yet people are supporting these type of ministers claiming they understand the pain and struggle of having children. These pro PAPs will never accept this fact that their master is incompetent to carry out certain tasks. Just like years ago when I said HDB 1mil will slowly becomes a norm and these pro PAPs said I’m talking bullshit. Look at the situation now.

@Babe:Minister in the Prime Minister's Office Indranee Rajah has explicitly identified the cost of living and time scarcity as major barriers to starting families. With Singapore's Total Fertility Rate dropping to a historic low of 0.87, addressing these financial and structural pressures is a pressing national priority. [1, 2, 3]
