Clivebenss SG

WKS is no longer credible after the MS fiasco. He can chide Singaporeans perhaps majority of Singaporeans are no more credible than him by constantly voting PAP without thinking!

Written by Our Correspondent

During his speech on the Budget, Mr Wong said:

“Singaporeans need to be realistic and fair-minded. While we want foreign workers to do the less pleasant jobs and contribute to our economy, we cannot also expect them to stay away, during their off days, from public places and shopping malls where we frequent, or not to take public transport to work.”

Foreigners are not doing the unpleasant JOBS.... They are taking up the directors and executive roles of many companys.......

Does Mr Won Refer to foreigners from Out of space.... Clearly Mr Won shown no interest for the benefits of singaporeans......

Singaporeans are very tolerant what.

Of huge mistakes made by ministers.

Otherwise, quite a fair bit of them would have to quit already.

Local born Singaporeans take it easy when they are abused in words by the Ministers. We have great Singapore citizens supporting every word and movement of the Ministers.

Have you ever encounter anyone who worry what will happen if PAP loses the election?

Actually, no. No one in my circle believe PAP will lose the election.Singaporean overseas are very interested with development at home. Living away from home often make our heart fondle and whenever we gather, we talk endlessly abt things at home. We enjoy the 'Singlish' together.

I dont think we are pro or against PAP but when the issues of foreign FT are raised and liberal migrant policy that the govern promote, it make everyone angry in the the group.

It is ok if they have the capability to take on exective or CEO job. At least, to me, they must have something to reach time and we will not be jealous abt them being in Singapore.

The story is diff if we have tech, mech, sales, clerks ..mid level job that are filled by foreigner where surely Singaporean is more productive, educated and most of them, the right working attitude to take these jobs.

We dont need the Indian and Bangal for these positions.

In Japan when ministers make a big mistake they go on national TV to apologise in tears (genuine or not that is another story) and then step down from their post.

In Singapore they wont need to apologise or step anywhere.They just go home and laugh at their own mistakes to tears.

you mean in Singapore they don't need to apologise but still laugh their way to the BANK....ha ha ha

There is such thing as honest mistake lah.

eagle SG

He got it wrong. That isn't exactly the real complaint of Singaporeans against foreign workers!

angel7030 SG

Ya, actually some foreigners coming here to work and live also said they get tricked by our govt. And for locals, foreigners increasing is not foreigner fault, they are innocent, it is our govt fault. One of these day, if a local and foreigner fight or quarrel, the foreigner will tell the local, dun blame me, blame your govt.

Remember few cases such as 'hijack zoo bus', 'prc want to jump at mom building', etc.....all are foreigners???

You expect us to be realistic and more tolerant with their attitude and behaviour?

Some of those create social and public nonsense

There are foreigners in the high posts and low skilled jobs.

If any, how many of the Ministers have the interest of the benefits of Singaporeans? Wk seng has no accountability that anyone of us can rely on. No shame from him on the get away of Mas Selamat.

which one not apologising or laughing to the bank?

Dondontan SG

Ministers spending too much effort to show they care for foreigners, how about us? We pay tax, pay bills, no protests against their verbal abuse and loss of billions, ironically they deprive to shower their attention and care on us.

Mr Milo SG

Nowhere to hide...nowhere to run

if we opt for a regime change, our neighbours will bully us

Arapahoe SG

Carry on to enjoy the extravagance from your government. This mentality is better to be thrown away into the drain.
