Other than the debate here on the minimum wage, which the Singapore govt does not seem to be in favour of (may make Singapore less competitive as it increases the wages that have to be paid out), note the figurative language used here, which can be useful for ur closing BANG for many qns, eg those that deal with the use of technology as a solution....:

It is more like a strong medicine with serious side effects. It should be prescribed with caution and under expert supervision - not mixed with sugar and downed in one gulp.

Alternative ones which I've shared with u before include:
=beautiful rose petals vs the prickly thorns beneath
=window/door that let in much-needed fresh air, but also dirt and dust along with it -- and maybe insects...
=like a fire that can destroy everything in its path, but also gives warmth and light if properly controlled
=like a beacon of light that guides us in the right direction by illuminating the path to follow, but whose light can be snuffed out any moment and plunge us into darkness
=like a beacon of light that can dispel darkness and show us the way, but over-fixation on it can produce a glare that blind us instead....
