EMERGING JOB TRENDS

In a job climate where many people find it extremely difficult to get employment, I'm sure that you'd be surprised to note that there are always new forms of work emerging these days.

For example, when Singapore announced that they will finally allow casinos to operate here, we have scores of new job opportunities, from croupiers... to gambling addiction counsellors. These careers would never have existed in Singapore just a few years ago (being a dealer at an illegal casino run by a loanshark in a brothel at Geylang... doesn't count)

So here is my take at some jobs that could possibly emerge. Time to upgrade your skill sets, people.



- Interpreter... for Singapore Idol judge Jacinta

- Physiotherapists specializing in dance related injuries (to be stationed at the Dance Floor auditions)

- Pronunciation experts... to help Singaporeans pronounce difficult new fangled words like "Biennale"... and "W"

- Event Planners... specializing in events commemorating tragedies caused by nature... and terrorists

- Financial Logisitics Specialists... specializing in moving wealth of ousted politicians out of their home countries.

- Interspecies Liaison Officers... specializing in improving relations between humans and stingrays

- Billanthropists

- Speech Editors... for Venezuelan El Presidente Hugo Chavez
