PAP MP Dr Lam Pin Min Wants MOH To Set Up Special Fund For PRs Medical Bill
The recent announcement by the Ministry of Health (MOH) to reduce the healthcare subsidies for Singapore PRs have brought mixed reactions from Singaporeans.
While some welcome the move, others felt the subsidies for Singaporean citizens should be increased instead. However, at least one PAP MP Dr Lam Pin Min is extremely worried about the impact of the new measures on PRs. Speaking in Parliament on Wednesday, GPC Chair for Health Dr Lam Pin Min feels some PRs may need help to adjust to the changes and hopes the Ministry can set up a special fund to help PRs who cannot afford their medical bills and have no where to turn to for support. His comments triggered a chorus of disapproval from netizens who lampooned him for ‘helping’ foreigners instead of locals. Some responses on Hardwarezone forum: “Is he afraid that the PRs cannot afford to pay for his services? His main clients all PRS izzi??” – singpat “Why are our elected MPs using their parliamentary time to discuss the needs of foreigners? If my employee spends his time talking about how to benefit my competitors, i’ll fire him in a sec.” – vicodin “my MP, xiasuay, speaking up for PR in parliarment when he shd be speaking for sinkies” – veryhungryboy http://temasektimes.wordpress.com/20...medical-bills/ |

Ha, many like me also dun understand why har.. Elected mp go into parliament to talk speak for non Singaporean to be fair heathcare subsidies should more or less be the same for those PRs who has married to singaporean n have kids born here settle here .. These type should subsidies as more n more Singapore men choose their other half oversea.
There are alot of PR which brings the entire family here take blue IC take advantage of the system and have no intention to become Singaporean .. The gov should target these type ,reduce more or give nothing, cos these type will just pack n retire back to their homeland when they earn or take enough advantage.. Put it simple... These type is the jia Liao bee type of PR Last edited by leong26; 12-04-2012 at 08:50 PM. |
