satisfaction singapore

According to a survey by Blackbox Research, the Government regained ground in citizen satisfaction for the last quarter and finished the year with a slightly better index score under its Blackbox Policy Satisfaction Index.

The survey which was carried out between October and December 2014, is made up from responses of over 3,000 residents.

Blackbox Research claims the survey group to be representative of Singapore’s population. But even so, the top increase of satisfaction by residents recorded on the issue of transportation leaves the credibility of the survey questionable.

Apart from transportation, satisfaction is also said to be have increased for issues on jobs and government accountability.

The areas which satisfaction levels are the lowest are tax, crime and CPF.

For the upcoming General Elections, the survey shows that Singaporeans in different areas have different perceptions of whether they think the PAP will win more votes than they did in the last election.

Of those who have been surveyed, residents from the central district are more optimistic of the results by the incumbent goverment with 73% saying that the PAP would probably get the same or more votes than last election while the other 27% said that they would probably do worse than in 2011.

As for the other areas, those who think that PAP would probably perform better than last election area as follow;

  • North, 62%
  • North-East, 65%
  • East, 54%
  • West, 60%

Overall, a majority of respondents felt that the PAP would probably get more votes than it did in 2011 when it won 60.1% of the valid votes in the election. But the percentage of that has dropped since the last quarter.

利用职业行诈骗之事和不诚实行为,两名前银行职员和一名前保险从业员遭新加坡金融管理局(MAS)严禁从事资本市场行业或保险业,长达10至20年之久。 金管局昨日发出有关文告指出,接到禁令的三人分别为前银行职员邓玮玲(译音,Emeline Tang Wei Leng)、前银行职员阮唯明(译音,Nguyen Duy Minh),以及前保险从业员许展龙(译音,Koh Zhan Loong John)。有关的禁令于4月5日起生效。 前汇丰银行(HSBC)职员的邓伟玲以代为存款入定期户口为由,骗取五名客户超过500万元,并提供了伪造文件给这五人,让他们以为有关现款已经汇入户口了。因此他被控滥用超过500万元以及不诚实行为,被金管局禁止20年不可从事资本现场的行业。 阮唯明原为大华银行(UOB)的职员,因为售卖假的金融产品给八名客户,甚至在没通知客户的情况下伪造文件,以他们的名义购买其他的金融产品,并且滥用客户的钱,导致八人蒙受50万元亏损。…

国大设委会检讨整治不当行为纪律框架

根据新加坡国立大学发给校内师生的一则电邮显示,国大校董会主席谢福华,已指示成立一个以校董郭运光女士为首的委员会,以检讨国大针对性骚扰等不当行为的纪律程序和支援框架。 谢福华在信中表示,校董会严正看待校园内出现的性骚扰不当行为。有关委会成员也包括新加坡管理大学校长江莉莉教授、国大校长陈永财教授、国大校董会董事和王律师事务所LLP执行合伙人吴伟权,和一名国大学生会的学生代表。 郭运光自2008年4月起,即成为国大校董之一,同时她也是英国伦敦一家律师事务所的律师,同时为她的家族事业工作,也是香格里拉酒店执行主席。 与此同时,郭运光也是耶鲁-国立大学学院的董事会主席、国家医疗保健集团董事成员;积极参与一些机构和社会团体职务,例如新加坡旅游局、西南社区发展理事会、国家艺术委员会、国家环境局等等。 谢福华表示“了解到强烈的群众诉求”,保证上述委员会将“迅速和果断地”检讨问题。 国大前硕士生非议委会人选 不过,对于委会人选名单也有网民提出非议,其中一位曾卷入与国大长达五年诉讼抗争的田柳金(Jeanne-Marie Ten 译音),在其中一则脸书留言中不客气抨击江莉莉教授,指后者“曾包庇犯错者”,不适合成为有关检讨委员会的一员。 田柳金过去曾是国大设计与环境学院的硕士生,2002年入学。不过她指其导师于2004年利用她的学术研究成果,为一项个人学术作业申请津贴,尔后获教育部八万元津贴。但是之后导师拒绝在该报告中加入田的名字。 此事发生时,江莉莉教授执掌国大副教务长一职。担心学术职涯受影响,当时田柳金也曾要求换导师,不过她指责校方站在导师一方,几经投诉都不得要领,她投诉到副教务长后,校方才召开调查委员会调查此事。 田柳金在2005年2月完成论文,但她表示数月后国大开出让田毕业的新条件:必须接受大学对于导师的处置。而田柳金的准硕士资格也2006年9月被剥夺。…
