Responding
to the 30-member Committee on the Future Economy, Terry Xu of The
Online Citizen published the names of all the 30 committee members and
asked:
"Do you spot any economists amongst the committee to provide advice or feedback on whether would the [sic] recommendations be feasible?"
And he titled his article:
"Future economy of Singapore set by business owners and not economists?"
One does not need the title of an 'economist' in order to understand economics. One just needs to have the relevant degree, i.e. a degree in economics. After all, a degree in economics is the requirement for being an economist.
We did a random pick of the 30 members to check and found at least 4 people with degrees in economics.
And we haven't even gone through the whole list.
Tsk tsk! Trying so hard to criticise the government for everything and anything. It is not necessary to criticise if there is nothing to criticise.
