I really respect this uncle for his attitude and his wife for his care for him. There are however lots of able bodied ones and maybe some from one country taking advantage of this situation,
Minimum $1 per pack at Raffles Place MRT from a handicap. How come government don’t place them to work in factory instead, because despite lost of a limb they can still work in production that’s is on the seat
Hopefully this programme can be spread to more locals for a better understanding of this whole license system. Theres really too many ‘illegal selling of tissues’ around in singapore and it kind of caused alot hiatus at times too. Alot of times at causeway point(also between mrts/bus interchange and areas between civic centres) i see theres like at least 5 tissue uncle/aunties sitting around to sell tissues, and some others is like those play music for donations one. The bad impression i have from these groups is that they can actually scold each other claiming things like fighting the best spot to sell, sit too close blah blah. Apparently they are just not genuinely look like a person who needs help like that uncle in this show. Not to even say some(idk is illegal or not) ‘youths volunteers’ calims they are from some food bank or wtv ask for a fixed amount of minimum $10 and up of donations for elderly. They don’t even mention which organisation they just say will go to respective charity to the elderly. This whole supposed kind acts has been heavily misused by alot of illegal people just because the crowd don’t know theres this licence to get donations or sell tissue thing.. just very heartache that all these amounts would have done a great tax refund for people who donates, and ultimately supposed to also helped so much to those who really need the donations more than the illegal sellers.. hopefully can do more of such programmes especially where to report those illegal and misused sellers or volunteers, where to search up if their license is legit or not
did I hear wrongly, this less fortunate group still need to pay for their license fee at $120 yearly? probably the authority can help by not charging them the license fee.
I think the reason to set a charge is to not let them “misuse” the license? A chinese saying is also 授人以鱼不如授人以渔, basically means you cannot help them forever why not teach them how to help themselves. Yes, they are very unfortunate but that does not mean they only left the option to ONLY beg money from others for the rest of their lives. Let this license selling tissue be part of their ‘job’.
A lot people see it as licensed begging. Honestly, we are rich enough to help these people, only 26 of them, give them say social help about 3k a month. Total only 78k a month less than 1 million a year. Make it illegal so citizens won't be harassed by illegal sellers.
That’s what I’ve been saying as well. Singapore citizens is only about 3.6 million. Out of this, only a small percentage of them needs help and we are rich enough to do more. However social security has always been an issue. Government still has this stand that we are not a social welfare state and people will stop working if we give them money. The few hundred dollars of benefits that these poor people get each month is pathetic and grossly inadequate. Look at the unemployment benefits that they have just introduced instead of having unemployment insurance - which they again said people will not want to look for work after getting the ‘huge’ sum of insurance payouts. Granted that there will be a very small percentage of people who will look for loopholes to take advantage of these policies but are we cannot disregard policies that will benefit 90% of the beneficiaries just because of the 10% free loaders.
In the olden days though we don't have " colorful " h d b flats and condominium and flashy cars but never see any old age selling tissue papers at train stations, whereas into the modern age we have seniors instead of taking care of their grandchildren happily but end up selling tissue papers to make ends meet whereas our small island population government ministers and president are being paid world highest salary than big countries, even America president salary are not as high as ours leaders. What a shame keep bragging first world country. Even our small fractions of seniors that have built up Singapore what we are today government still not willing to fork out more to look after them, even America have jobless claims and welfare.
@@tanpengjoo7205 Last time I have a colleague from China who could not finish his first meal in a foodcourt when he first landed in Singapore. I thought he was not used to the food but it turned out that he could not stand the sight of grannies around him collecting plates and wiping tables. He asked me why we are allowing these grannies do all these manual work. This was unheard of even in China. It was embarrassing. He left Singapore after just one year as he realised Singapore is not a first world country like what it said it is.
Why look look for licenses the very fact that they are old. Old why go through to look so strictly. If u can just spare 2 or 3 dollars just give. Don’t waste all the talk n brain to check this n that For so long I just give n never take their tissue n never got scolding for it. Love our own senior singaporean unless they walk faster than u then keep your money. 😊
Glad tat this topic is brought up…. Authorities must do their parts to clamp down illegal tissue seller (especially those from China), so tat our 26 sellers will have bigger market shares and better earnings. Singapore is not big, but dunno why Authorities always slow to react……
O, they must have a license? When i saw those young or old handicap on the street, sure i will give them money. Even though they selling things a not, since i was 17 n now i am 63. Thanks.😊

很好这位叔叔的想法很好正能量满满的；真的希望有同样问题的人；听了这位叔叔的话；能放开
好好的活在当下；叔叔我为你而荣😍

主持人👍🏼口齿清晰，问题明确
能同甘共苦，乐观的夫妻，好难得。❤
Really respect and love this cute and humble uncle attitude. He is always grateful for what he receives. ❤
同甘共苦。。。❤❤❤好难得。朴实。
這個訪問很有意義， 做得很好呀！加油！
全胤的报道真的讲到一个不为人知和被忽略的课题。👍🏼
那些到小贩中心每一座去兜售纸巾的根本不需要执照。有些还是说着中国口音的。
我以前住Khatib义顺，经常遇到这个uncle。他们都是需要帮助的弱势群体。他老婆也不容易
我通常都不会想那么多，给了就给了，人家可怜嘛
施比受更有福 做好事就不要计较太多
i seldom step out of my house nowadays but when i do and see old folks that are just as old as me selling tissue papers, i really feel sad for them.
其实我个人认为，如果自己心里想帮就帮，做人应该看开点！
会帮真正有需要的人，可是需要帮忙的人被那些赚快钱的人害死。很多比我年轻、比我壮、可能赚得比我还多也来卖，外劳也来卖。不鼓励别人赚这种 easy money. 有些人讨钱讨到我家来，不给也不行，他已经知道你住哪里，报警好像也没抓到。

你讲的对
可効仿在六十年代非法的小贩，被罚了几次而证明他们的需要，就发给执照。别忘了八九十年代时侯 过河耒四马路廟丐讨的百万身家的丐帮 有的还是PR身份。新加坡别好心作坏事
I love the comments from 1:31 1:41 1:58 2:09 2:13
我不会买，我宁愿捐给那些需要的人

对 应该要有证明才对 辟免有鱼目混珠的人 应该要帮本囯人
見識過一位老頭買了些紙巾，然後就叫了大只老虎啤酒坐下爽歪歪探索世界。🤣😂
我曾经看过一个老伯写这行字在纸皮上：Every dog has its day.
每个人背后都有一段故事。生活艰难，不是迫于无奈他们这把年纪了也不会在街上日晒雨淋卖纸巾，放工后唯一能解压和放松的方法也就是喝点啤酒抽个烟。
见过1位卖纸巾的还赌马$500win呢！😂😂
原来一张執照批下耒，每年都缴费！26人有！哇！至少百倍数的人都不曾申请！LAW BY LAW😊😊
如果有饭吃，就分一点给人家吃。，不要说被骗，就当请他们喝一杯咖啡。

When things are free people may not appreciate. When there is a price to pay, it will force them to work hard for it
Whose faults, encourage illegal selling tissues
Same like no driving licence delivery service illegal delivery from other countries doing it
raffles city每次有很多会进去餐厅里卖的，都是年轻的，不买就不走，有的顾客可能摆手不买他们就会不爽在那边一直骂

之前clementi MRT 附近咖啡店就有一个uncle, 不跟他买还呱呱叫，
咖啡店收碗的都受不了。
还有钱买酒喝

Singapore is not big, but dunno why Authorities always slow to react……
No road tax also on the road,how??
不知道有給执照，从没看过。通常不买，不过偶尔遇到住附近认得的乐龄老人就会支持一下。
据我所知，有些乐龄老人是有车载送的。这些通常穿着不像本地人。曾经也看过两个年轻人在HDB邻里中心筹款。观察他们，发现他们只追着乐龄居民筹款。过后，碰巧在停车场看见他们驾车离开停车场。
看到残疾人士和老年人，不管有无执照，我都会帮他们买纸巾，除非有人告诉我这个人是为了买马票或抽烟或买昂贵的食物的老人则例外😂😂😂
O, they must have a license? When i saw those young or old handicap on the street, sure i will give them money. Even though they selling things a not, since i was 17 n now i am 63. Thanks.😊
I will buy from the elderly uncles or auntie s. Their age can be our parents, y not help them? It doesn't cost much...
26? BoonKeng pasar这里早上就6人了
Apparently after this ep, we all know its all the “illegal” ones
even foreigners are selling tiisue now! 😐
他們沒兒女養嗎？應應無代治 出去貪吃啦😂
既然你们主动想跟他买纸巾，你们就不要担心是否自己被骗。
还有第三类，猜猜是哪里来人。
几乎都从马国来乞讨新币的
对，很多是从马国过来的。所以我现在不会买了。😂😂😂
一毛不拔的政府还让老人情绪勒索普通工民 why u begging in the street government just top up 2000 in your Medisave what lol 😂
这些普通老百姓，除了勤劳干活把光阴消耗，很少有时间思考。一有空就只会坐在电视面前看电视。
这久而久之就被电视传播给完全洗脑。天天给政府官员压迫，连“哼一声”都不敢。真的苦不堪怜。
