The Calling it Out show is TOC(TV)’s premier broadcast programme, kicking off the channel and a slew of independent local programming.

The show was started to combat the growing issue of extreme apathy for current affairs among Singapore’s youth.

It tries to look at the lighter side of current affairs, and shows that differences in opinions and agreeing to disagree can be a fun mental exercise.

The programme is hosted by Sean Francis and Ben Matchap – and this week they take on the nonsensical writings of one Melvyn Singh of The New Paper “fame”.

公积金局称申诉老翁已领出14万 网民非议当局公开会员财务个资

七旬私召车司机申诉,自己每月只能从公积金领取575元,无法负担自己和妻子的生活。但开私召车,又被要求要填补保健储蓄。对此公积金局在昨日在脸书发声明,这名司机在55岁时已领出14万元,更指如果当初他没领钱,每月领入息可超过1千元。 然而,公积金局的答复仍引来网民非议,有者质疑当局公开会员的财务私隐是否妥当?再者,这名司机质问的重点是,为何保健储蓄已有钱还要填补,否则将无法更新私召车执照? 事缘上月24日,名为克里福德(Clifford Theseira)的72岁私召车司机申诉,自己的公积金储蓄只能每月领入息575新元,由于不足以承担夫妻俩生活费用,自己只好开私召车营生,不过上了年纪又不能开太久,实则收入有限。 他提到自己的保健储蓄(medisave)户头还有6万元,可是仍被要求要填补保健储蓄保费,而来自公积金局的信函也提到,若不填补将无法更新私召车司机执照。 “(保健储蓄)里我有6万元,如果我在这笔钱动用前离世,我的钱会怎样?我自己的钱为何我不能用。 如果我的执照吊销了,我能不能申领福利?哎呀,这里是新加坡,是没有免费的。” 公积金局公开克里福德公积金个资 对此,公积金局在昨日的脸书贴文声称克里福德“未反映事实的全部”,指他在55岁那年已领出14万元,如果当初没这么做,如今他每月领入息能超过千元。 “再者,克里福德还联名拥有一座已还清的五房式组屋”。 公积金局称当事人可以透过财路(GIRO)分期填补自己的保健储蓄户头,每月缴付额估计不超过月入的1巴仙。“只要他和其他雇员一样缴交,他仍能在明年7月到期前更新执照。” 公积金局更扬言,克里福德作为建国一代,已经从政府度援助措施受惠。仅在今年就已收到保健储蓄补贴和终身健保的特别保费津贴,也获取超过2300元包括现金和公积金在内的就业入息补助。…
