PM Lee’s NDR Speech 2008

1. Larger baby bonus for first time parents. 
    Not applicable to me anymore 

2. Paid maternity leave would be extended from 12 weeks to 16 weeks. 
    Sounds good, but I am contented with one. 

3. Childcare leave extended from 2 days to 6 days. 
    This is definitely useful 

4. Creating more childcare centres over next five years.
    Can all the centre closes at 8pm? No more fines but ample time

5. One week of unpaid infant-care leave per year,
    until the child turns two years old.
    This is encouraging but I have missed the chance

    Hi, tks for visiting my blog. You have a beautiful daughter. :)

    Wow, you’re a working mum, yet you hv time to cook, bake and blog, and look after yr girl so well. You’re one super-mama! I don’t think i can cope with all these when i’m working. :)

    cendrine: no, I am not a super mum. Many times I have to take leave to cope.
