10 questions for Mr Ministar

“I have been in MND for 5 weeks, and not sleeping well.”

1. Has he been sleeping well at his previous place of employment even though there was a report about the hospital bed crunch?

2. Does that mean that his predecessor has not been sleeping too well for the past decades?

3. Or conversely, are there reasons for his predecessor to sleep extremely well?

4. Is he not sleeping well because, unlike nursing homes, it would be a little hard to persuade our neighbour to build flats to house wee islanders and create a Johor-apore?

5. Why is he not sleeping well when his predecessor did not complain of any sleeping problems?

6. Was he aware that he might not be sleeping well when he (allegedly) volunteered for this job?

7. Does this also mean that those working under him shouldn’t be sleeping too well either?

8. Does this mean that the rest of his colleagues are sleeping or should not be sleeping too well either (“Tuck Yeu la! Standing in MRT, LRT and buses, how to sleep like that?”)?

9. For the sake of sleeping well, shouldn’t he be adopting the stance of his younger colleague who said that he did not want to give “them” his solutions but work through solutions with “them”?

10. If he hasn’t been sleeping well because of this one portfolio he holds, then what about his bosses? Have his bosses been sleeping well?

Bonus question:

Would some mattress company take this opportunity to sell good quality mattresses (“boing!”) at $8?
