Singapore government not rushing to change policy on NRIC numbers: Josephine Teo

[@tangt4860]

We do not need your overdue apology. Singaporeans want you to resign and leave parliament, is that clear girl?

[@Hs5687]

Self Sabotage… Reeks of Regime Change Underway 😂🎉❤

I find it extremely confusing with the new revelation unheard from 60 years of independence that NRIC card and NRIC no serve different purpose - former for authentication, latter as identifier. Such nuanced demarcation is unacceptable explanation. Should the GOV say the same for passports then and do away completely with physical NRIC and passports? Some organizations that Josephine Teo alluded to include agencies like SPF for "authenticating" purpose as a "legacy" practice. Back to first principles, what is the primary purpose of these official documents - to IDENTIFY AND AUTHENTICATE, no? Any revamp comes with Whole of GOV legacy housekeeping and alignment first and adequate communication of rationale to public. Execution is extremely poor, no denial.

It's easy to say sorry.

JT is not doing a good job at clearing up the confusion 😂

[@DMah-m5x]

[@LonganLee]

In the singapore, does the Buck REALLY ABSOLUTELY stop at the Top?😅

[@LiHongyisonoflhl]

Can Singaporeans continue to trust PAP? Would Singaporeans continue to vote PAP? I don't think so.

[@alvinchua3518]

Right or wrong also they say what can we do follow lor... It has been like that since dinosaurs ruled the world 😂😅

[@LonganLee]

Is that indranee serving as in-house lawyer?🤔

[@farrahkong1998]

Out sourcing is better.

[@ray-h5p]

She has been demoted from the PAP party. Not a central committee member anymore. She is now learning to sell Roti Prata, flipping her words and nobody understand what is she talking about.

[@edwardlim9240]

Nonsense excuse to the max. If Josephine excuse is valid, the minster should insist in unmask of the nric and accept the uproar from public.

[@samuelpoo2284]

Vote out.

[@byebyefiat]

Thanks for your education on NRIC card and number…. Maybe you can be a teacher at a primary school.

[@Dan8254]

No thank you. We including children deserve to get technocrats who are competent at their jobs, not bureaucrats who are good at talking.

[@GASIA-cw8iw]

A sea of incompetency across all civil services. I have been saying for long time liao! Ha ha ha!

[@aliceiw4325]

I think there is a lot of hierarchies and lack of communication between the levels. Maybe they assumed understanding when there was none.

[@crestz1]

people don't want their NRIC number to be public la. Do you understand. Simple logic don't know how to be minister.

[@bobafett5757]

Now no mood to celebrate Xmas and New Year cos feeling anxiety and depressed over this issue

[@cbont7]

Actually, no need to explain difference between the two. 😅

[@LonganLee]

Whiter than white? Sure sure.....😅

[@Dan8254]

Mishaps after mishaps, yet retaining positions??
