MOM staff to get ergonomic chairs
-
Value for money
Rolls Royce for all croonies.
All croonies should wear armani white suit when they go for National Day parade and functions. (Just like England players)
What will be next ?
Designer cups, Designer table, designer toilet bowl ?
If they are not keep in check, this is how the tax payer money is wasted.
A chair is a chair unless they are sitting there for 24 hours a day.
Please dun use reasons to support your shameless spending.
It is all groundless !

The criteria to receive help is so stringent yet the budget for these extravagant chairs are approved.....in the blink of an eye?
it is fine since it is for the workers

Which government department is next?
I can forsee my chief clerk sitting on expensive chair and enjoying herself.
-
Its alright, they can sit on whatever chairs they want, they pay taxes too.
-
my chair is only $90 from the neighbourhood furniture shop...
it comes with a full-body-length backrest and armrest. that's the only.........incentive. -
Should give all the staff $200 each... let them decide what they want to buy for their office. LOL... Savings $375 each.

Hey, you work at that ministry ah?

maybe that saleman is some good friends or relateive of the officer that approve the purchase ????
who know this is another " similar LTA "case again???
-
frankly, guys.. read the rest of the story..
the chairs have a 12 year warranty...
that makes good sense to buy the chairs... it ends up about $50 a year per chair before the warranty runs out.. and i bet the chairs would still be used...
if you want to buy cheapass chairs for $100 which fall apart after 1 year, it's a bad buy

On a serious note, one chair costs even more than the $300 odd dollars per month given to those on social assistance.
How can the ministry or any other ministry justify this kind of spending?

let's look at things in perspective..........
-
why now near election talk about mom having such expensive chairs. :Propaganda project is ongoing with strong aggression.
-
yes..
read the news...
=> Chairs come with 12 year all parts warranty on-site support with option to replace or repair
or do you want these cheapass made in China chairs?
=> Boy killed anally when his office chair explodes
what kind of chair do you want?

made at sungei kadut chair!

huat ah that brand
-
Point 1: Do you seriously expect the chair to be used for the next twelve years ?
Point 2: Can a company with such expensive product survive 12 years ?
Point 3: Does the staff at MOM have some special backside or all the them are suffering from back problem ?
A chair is a chair; unnecessary spending is wasteful spending.
I predict the next stupid reason that they will give is the medical cost saved from MOM staff suffering from back problem that are seeking treatment.
How blind can their reasoning be ?
I was wondering what other shameless buy or gift they have rewarded themselves.

Because we use our own money to buy bread, they use our taxpayers money to buy chairs, so its not their money.
