Singaporean conglomerates are reportedly restructuring their entire leadership tiers based on the prestige of SkillsFuture credit-funded hobbies.

CEO Tan Ah Kow recently promoted his office cleaner to Chief Investment Officer after seeing a certificate for 'Intermediate Floral Arrangement.'

"I see her put the orchid next to the fern and I know she can diversify our global hedge fund," Tan explained while using a stack of 'Basic Excel' certificates as coasters.

HR Director Mavis Low added: "Wah piang, last time must go Ivy League, now just need to learn how to bake sourdough with gahmen money then can get 10k salary already lor."

Despite the Ministry’s PR blitz, most hiring managers admit the only 'skill' they truly value is an employee's ability to sit through a four-hour Zoom call without committing hara-kiri.

The market remains optimistic that a 'Basic Tarot Reading' course will soon replace the need for actual economic forecasting.
