why does the papers keep calling the CPF a nest egg?
inflations are leaking the yolk off the egg faster than the CPF interests.
come to think of it…are the following linked?
compulsory annuity…extended CPF withdrawals…highest record amount of singaporeans withdrawing their CPF at 2007…are they saying they run out of money?

Dear Mr Brown,
Here’s the latest edition of Bro Scroobal’s “Tales from the Istana”. This time, the two chums are planning to join in the protest on 8th September, 2007, 4pm at Centrepoint.
Cheers!

Hi Mr Brown
Although this has got nothing to do with CPF, this website has a very cool animation about our dear NS. Enjoy. (altho you may have seen it but nvm)

There has been over 20 letters to ST forum page on the CPF issues. Apparently a couple of letters has clearly called the Government bluff and indicated that the Government has many things to hide.
A well known academic from NUS has written a long article on how to deal with the aging issues without touching the CPF. His article has been kept in abeyance. He has been refused permission to send it for publication even to journals and publications. He had a long discussion with some officials of the CPF board and MAS last evening. He has also been asked to cancel his interview with the AWSJ which is scheduled on friday.
There is an embargo on publishing any adverse or critical article on CPF policies. At best, only articles which praises the Government will be published. All emails and written articles are automatically forwarded to MoF and the CPF board for information.

[…] Again, when it comes to satirical podcasts, nobody does it better than Mr. Brown and his team with their top 10 new names for the Central Provident Fund. […]
