S'pore legislature in for hard debate<\/p>\n
SINGAPORE (AP): Parliament members have prepared tough
\nquestions for Friday's session on what the government plans to do
\nfor Singaporeans facing higher prices, lower wages and the
\ngrowing possibility of unemployment.<\/p>\n
Questions about continued aid to Indonesia and demands for
\nspecifics on Singapore's many disputes with neighboring Malaysia
\nare also on the order paper made public on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
Singapore's government and parliament have been dominated for
\n33 years by the People's Action Party, and questions put to
\nCabinet members are seldom controversial, except for those from
\nthe handful of opposition and nominated members.<\/p>\n
But worries about everything from the increased cost of
\ndriving in Singapore's central business district to the possible
\nthreat that Malaysia will reclaim possession of an offshore
\nlighthouse are reflected in the questions set for discussion
\nFriday afternoon.<\/p>",
