The Registry of Trade Unions approved the dissolution of the Amalgamated Union of Public Daily Rated Employees (AUPDRW) in June. This was for a very simple reason: There were no more daily-rated workers in the public sector!
Previously, these workers were paid based on the number of days they worked in a month. Now they have all been converted to a monthly scheme. As a result, they enjoy higher wages, better benefits and more salary progression.
Converting the workers to a monthly wage scheme was a lifetime ambition of the late Mr. G. Muthukumarasamy (Brother Kumar), the former general secretary of the AUPDRW and a veteran unionist. Brother Kumar passed away in December 2019, but his hard work to improve workers’ lives remains his legacy.
NTUC Singapore is carrying on the work of Brother Kumar, by pushing for faster expansion of the Progressive Wage Model, and fighting for better wages, welfare and work prospects for lower-wage workers. The Government will continue to support the NTUC strongly, to improve workers’ lives. – LHL

China’s “New Squabbling Situation” (Lee Yee)
Yesterday, I mentioned that the US deterred the Soviet Union’s intention to employ nuclear weapons to attack China’s military base in 1969, and since then implemented a half-century policy of interactions with China. Although the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has always said that “the US will never give up their ambition to destroy our nation,” looking back at history, even when the Eight-Nation Alliance invaded China in the nineteenth century, the US did not make territorial claims from the Qing empire. Instead, it advocated “open doors to share the benefits equally” to avoid China being carved up. The US’ share of the Boxer’s indemnity has been gradually paid back through the training of Chinese talents and the studying of Chinese students in the US. The Rockefeller Foundation founded the Peking Union Medical College (PUMCH) in 1917, the predecessor of Tsinghua University, bringing modern western medicine into China. When the Second Sino-Japanese War broke out, a veteran American military aviator Claire Lee Chennault was hired as an aviation adviser and trainer in China. He organized the First American Volunteer Group (AVG) of the Republic of China Air Force, nicknamed the Flying Tigers, and assisted China in fighting against the Japanese in World War II.
In response to the anti-China speech given by the US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, a mainland Chinese netizen commented, “you needed education, they gave you Tsinghua University; you needed medical care, they gave you PUMCH; you needed to fight against Japan, they gave you the Flying Tigers; you needed to oppose the Soviet Union, they gave you a platform; you needed to open up, they gave you foreign funding; you needed trade, they gave you a trade surplus...You say that they have an endless ambition to destroy your nation, they will give it a try!” This is a very vivid description of how Sino-US relations have evolved so far.
Just a few days before Pompeo delivered his “Communist China and the Free World’s Future” speech, Chinese State Councilor and Minister of Foreign Affairs Wang Yi also gave a long speech at the inaugural ceremony of the Xi Jinping Thought on Diplomacy Studies Centre on July 20. The speech was titled, “Study and Implement Xi Jinping Thought on Diplomacy Conscientiously and Break New Ground in Major-Country Diplomacy with Chinese Characteristics." I share the URL here ( https://www.sohu.com/a/408705618_99900926 ) and strongly recommend readers to browse this masterpiece. Let’s see if anyone can tell me after reading it, what is the content of Wang’s three to four thousand words on “Xi’s Thought on Diplomacy,” and what specific facts were there about “breaking new ground in major-country diplomacy.” Nowadays, the daily news is about Western countries’ policies, acts, and speeches directed at China and Hong Kong. Mainland netizens have recently lined up the front-page headlines of the Chinese internal newspaper “Reference News,” and they were all, “China condemns…, China warns the UK…, China is resolute to fight back…” This is not at all a new diplomatic situation but a new squabbling situation.”
After reading Wang’s speech, why not make a comparison to see if this Chinese Minister of Foreign Affairs, who has the same ranking as the US Secretary of State, is of the same caliber and merit as Pompeo? Then you will understand why the US now refuses to restart dialogue with China and only looks at China’s actions.
Looking at the successive Chinese foreign ministers after the establishment of the People's Republic of China in 1949, with the exception of the time during the Cultural Revolution, Zhou Enlai, Chen Yi to Qian Qichen were all decent. I still remember that after the breakthrough in Sino-US relations in 1971, the New York Times columnist James Reston visited Zhou Enlai in China and their battle of words was brilliant. Why does the current foreign minister only speak empty words but know not what they are?
Of course, this is related to the current situation in China for the apotheosis of the core leader. In addition to the unknown “Xi Jinping’s Thought on Diplomacy,” there will be “Xi Jinping’s Thought on Economics, Education, Military…” one after another.
A netizen quoted Wang’s speech and left a comment, “Brown-nosing is linguistic corruption and spiritual bribery...The giver only has to expend dignity and cunning with words, and the recipient is rewarded with personality and public interests. It is consensual for both giver and taker, and they usually have a tacit understanding where they jointly commit an ugly conspiracy...In a totalitarian society, brown-nosing is a multiple outbreak and refractory Covid-19. After an organized and large-scale epidemic, it will eventually become an incurable disease of personality cult detrimental to the entire nation and society.”
German Protestant theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer said that “the nature of folly is a moral rather than an intellectual defect.” I believe this moral defect stems from a totalitarian system. When power becomes absolute, all those in power at various levels will, as Lu Xun said, “fawn upon their superiors and be overbearing upon those below.” The regime causes those with authority to never hear the true voice, how is this not stupid?

But I have never solely blamed China for this.
但我從來都說這不只是中國的錯。
They were able to get away with a theft, like no one was able to get away with before because of past politicians and frankly, past presidents.
中國的宵小行為能夠以前所未有的程度逃過制裁,是因為過去的政客,還有,坦白說,過去的總統。
But unlike those who came before, my administration negotiated and fought for what was right. It’s called fair and reciprocal treatment.

儘管中國每年僅僅不過付給世界衛生組織四千萬美元,相對於美國一直以來每年付出大約四點五億美元(中國出的錢只是零頭),但中國卻完全控制了世界衛生組織。

由於他們不進行我們所要求的非常必要的改革,我們今天將終止我們與世界衛生組織的關係,將這些資金轉用於其他全球事務以及更值得注資的全球公共衛生迫切需求。
The world needs answers from China on the virus. We must have transparency.
世界要中國為病毒問題給出交代,資訊必須透明。
Why is it that China shut off infected people from Wuhan, to all other parts of China? It went nowhere else.It didn’t go to Beijing. It went nowhere else, but they allowed them to freely travel throughout the world, including Europe and the United States.
為何中國封鎖武漢不讓感染病人到中國其他地區?病毒沒有傳到中國其他地方,沒有傳到北京,沒有傳到中國其他地方,但中國卻允許病人在全球自由旅行,包括歐洲與美國。
The death and destruction caused by this is incalculable. We must have answers not only for us, but for the rest of the world.

The Chinese government's move against Hong Kong is the latest in a series of measures that are diminishing the city's longstanding and very proud status.

This is a tragedy for the people of Hong Kong, the people of China, and indeed the people of the world.
這對香港人民,對中國人民,以及的確對世界全人類來說,都是一場悲劇。
China claims it is protecting national security, but the truth is that Hong Kong was secure and prosperous as a free society.Beijing's decision reverses all of that.
中國宣稱它是在保護國家安全,但事實是香港是個安全繁榮又自由的社會,是北京的決定讓香港的一切豬羊變色。
It extends the reach of China's invasive state security apparatus into what was formerly a bastion of Liberty.
它擴展中國侵略性的國安機構運作範圍,入侵原本是自由堡壘的香港。
China's latest incursion, along with other recent developments that degraded the territory's freedoms, makes clear that Hong Kong is no longer sufficiently autonomous to warrant the special treatment that we have afforded the territory since the handover.

The rest of the world was electrified by a sense of optimism that Hong Kong was a glimpse into China’s future, not that Hong Kong would grow into a reflection of China’s past.
當時世界的其他地方也為一股樂觀情緒所振奮,認為從香港可以一窺中國的未來,而不是香港會逐漸成為中國過去的反映(但事與願違,中國沒有變得更像香港,卻是香港成了中國的模樣)。
In every decision, I will continue to proudly defend and protect the workers, families, and citizens of the United States of America.
我的每個決策,都將繼續驕傲的捍衛與保護美國勞工、美國家庭,與美國公民。
