Register for a job
Hi
I am unfortunate to be retrenched due to a failed business. I am at a loss on where to seek help, apart from applying to be a taxi driver. Can you tell me where I can go to to register and put my name in for some employment opportunities.

It is a website created by me. At this stage, there is no much traffic, but it cost you nothing to be listed here. A prospective employer may search for you based on proximity to the workplace.
New iShop - orders received
The new iShop received 5 orders yesterday - which was quite good. Most of the orders are for the financial planning book (which is quite popular) and the life insurance book. This is a 25% discount on these books, i.e. $9 instead of $12.
I am waiting for payment to come in - before the books can be delivered. To order, go to www.tankinlian.com/ishop.

Create agency to help retirees find jobs
Tan Teck Kim wrote to the St Times Forum to ask the government to create an agency to help retirees find jobs. I suggest that retirees should register with Easy Ads and post their resume. The prospective employer is likely to search for an available candidate who lives near the workplace (to reduce the time and cost of travel).This feature is available in Easy Ads. There is a special category called "Looking for Jobs".

Why I can't be a good MP
Note: My friend (called DareToSay) sent this e-mail to me, explaining why he can't be a good MP and expressing doubt about new candidates who are confident that they can be a good MP and to hold a full time job at the same time.
Why I can't be a good MP:
1. My social circle is too homogenous - middle high income only
2. While I grew up in humble home (both dad and mom had little education and were blue collar laborers), I cannot remember the last time I have problem putting food on table
3. I have to admit I do not have what some living (and dead) Saints have, which is the ability to emphathise without themselves experience something
4. My focus is on my wife and kids (emotion part) and making sure we have enough to see kids thru University (the financial part). Being not good at multi-tasking (or I call it anyhow do everything), I don't think I can manage the important job as an MP and still do my day job properly.
To conclude, I do not think I know enough how our poorer people is suffering to be useful to assist them and that I do not think I have enough capacity to do a good job as an MP and at the same time take care of my family's emotional and financial needs. I wonder how our MPs do it. I wonder further why the new candidates are so confident they can do it.
