Adam Khoo prefers to hire FTs than locals

last SG · 2010-01-04T20:32:58+00:00

If he or whoever does his HR work actually looks through all the CVs, I'm fine with that. However if locals get filtered out first due to some unwarranted pr...

Howlheje SG

well of course..

faced with two identical products, would you pay $2.50 for one while the other costs $2?

What did i tell u guys,this fuking Bear is always speaking for the sake of PAP.

Hey Bear,maybe u worth only $2,but pls dont pull the rest of the Singaporeans to be as "low class" as you.

Like what some forumers said,those foreigners after earning enough money,they can go back to their own countries n build big houses,buy big cars,whereas we Singaporeans have to spend our "earnings" in here for the rest of our lives.

Moreover,their education system are less strict than ours.They can obtain a University cert more easier than us.Our education system is a total failure compare to foreign countries.The PAP wanted Singaporeans to spend too much time n efforts "digging their heads" on the books,which is meaningless as time proven.

Finally,if u want Singaporeans to take pay cuts when looking for jobs,u have to ask the PAP ministers(especially LKY,LHL,n GCT) to cut their pays first!!!If the PAP leaders continue to take such as high pay(more than that of the U.S president),then how can they expect the public to have their pay cut while those "PAP Scumbags ministers" are taking the highest pay in the world without doing much things?

i'm asking you to price yourself what you are worth..

if you are worth more, go ahead..

the chinese did say that real gold is not afraid of fire..

btw.. i'm asking this again coz really, if you really want to fight the MIW, you need real ammunition.. a lot of ranting in SC is bullshit...

you want to take the MIW down, fight them on topics and issues which they are dead wrong, they have messed up, and they cannot defend against... to rant and rage over your own shortcomings and your own inabilities just give them more firepower to shoot you down, and worse, to create a diversion for them to distract and obfuscate over the real issues...

in the long run, your rabble-rousing noise is just that.. noise.. because empty vessels are the loudest...

go figure out what the real issues are.. and why they require debate.. instead of ranting and raging.. because, pardon me, your slip is showing...

Fantagf SG

Must look for your own country leaders who are asking for millions of dollar in pay while their counterpart from much larger economy are paid only a small portion of that.

Singaporeans should be looking for expat leaders.

yesh to that. It should start from the top, the leaders should set examples to get low low pay then they are in a position to demand people of the country to do the same.

Just sack PAP if they refuse to do so.

Fantagf SG

*pui*

dos r not expats loh.

those from third world countries.

If you owned a company and in this current economics climate if your sight is only on lowering cost than you are already in a loosing streak.

Singaporean has to address the topics of productivities, and expanding market shared if you think that hiring a cheaper employees, can bring your organization to the next level think again.

Cheaper by $300 in a loosing environment or expanding environment by maintain Cost.?

So the question about how you value yourself is irrelevant vs what value you want the employees to bring to the organization.

soul_rage SG

so there.. that's the answer isn't it?

what short-sighted, long-sighted whatever..

if a foreigner can do a job better and cheaper than a local, i'll hire him.. if a local can do the job better and cheaper than a foreigner, why the hell should i hire the foreigner...

now.. Adam Khoo can hire whoever the hell he wants.. that's his business... if they're good for him, good..

ultimately it comes down to that.. choice..

or does the idiots out there in SC want the MIW to remove that choice from them? maybe they do.. so that they have something else to kpkb about...

There's a reason why our SMEs are mini-sized compared to SMEs of other countries (defined to have turnovers of $50m to $100m per year).

Our SMEs are forever short-sighted, and only look at cost. Put it bluntly, I don't think you even know how to measure what is better. More likely, you are only interested in cheaper.

Our local companies are unlike foreign companies, where they also look at whether you fit into the organization, rather than just only looking at costs.

That's why most of our SMEs are destined to remain as either a one-man or a single-digit employee company.

Sad to say that isn't the end of the story. If that keeps on going... then price war...(sala wage war) with FT from China, India and whatever.

So your usual lifestyle will be worse off lor. Open flood gates to FT siao. Countries open flood gates to rich people or highly talented people to help their people.

Sg open flood gates so that cheap labour can come in and attract foreign investments to stay. Local Sg lifestyle affected is their problem.

In other words a prostitute that goes out and says "I'm cheaper!!! come <3 me!!! $20 only." Why don't the prostitute think of ways to make herself more pretty instead of lowering price?

Sg go think of ways to attract investment instead of opening flood gates to lower your cost of labour lar.

On the SgForums site, angel7030 posed the notion that "it is better to let Singaporean a feel of the global market competition now rather than later, now they understand they are not worth that much to walk around, point and point there while earning a five-figure paid, these will motivate them work harder and smarter, so that in a long run, our Singaporean PMET or workers will be able to adapt to any condition set about in the global market."

You are spot-on. It's not just rabble-rousing.

Do you notice how its all the stupid or stupider people of the society, as can be seen from their poor education and upbringing, that are the most easy and convenient preys of the propaganda and emotional rousing of the SDP and other crazed psychotic nutcases? Because these losers lack the necessary logical faculties and reason, they are unable to process information, digest and rationalise, or think through critically the various facets of an argument, the various ramifications of issues, the various consequences of something, the long and short term perspectives.

Because of their low IQ, they are very easy to target for brainwashing and rabble-rousing.

One recent example is their remarks about the Romanian diplomat who has diplomatic immunity. Their ability to connect anything, even an entirely civil matter like a husband and wife quarrelling to the PAP, and bring in the government in for a bashing, has cheaped their position to offer any constructive feedback in any manner, as their credibility is non existent.

Another recent example of the acts of these low-class and low IQ peasant lunatics can be witnessed in a thread I started about my office-related complaints. One of these low class and low IQ lunatics posted to claim I was a supporter of a political party when I'm completely uninterested in party politics, and when the thread at hand has NOTHING to do with even current affairs, let alone socio-political affairs and party politics. Later another fuckwit came in and started talking about PAP and connecting the issue about someone feeling unhappy at work and attributing it one political party!!! I know, its very very amusing to people like us.. the antics of these clowns and losers. So dumb right.. I can't imagine them even being able to get past primary 2.

These people are so stupid, I wish they would practise what they claim and get out of Singapore as their very citizenship is perilous to the future of the nation and will cause genetic dilusion.

Relax can? What is logical and rational to you might not be so to the person next door. Thats why there is a forum to discuss.

And all those namecalling aiyo charbo. I assume you are highly educated.... but please have some class can? In one post you used "Stupid, uneducated, psychotic, nutcase, fuckwhit...." all these really uncalled for lor.

No point in being educated right if you have to resort to namecalling?

Or are you trying to emulate some high class bitch?

I like to use colourful adjectives freely to describe the subjects, in order to do their stupidity justice. Any less and it doesn't do them justice, God forbid.

Namecalling is not fine when its apt and justfied but vulgar and candid, and fine when it's reserved and restrained and polite but untruthful? haha. A spade is a spade.

You're frank which is good. But imo namecalling will achieve nothing if u intended to get a point across.

Unless you intended to just rant and let off steam.

if both of you understand what is cyber forum, you will be able to better enjoy posting here, otherwise, it will only add more frustration to your already hectic lifestyle

Howlheje SG

My point is simple,if the PAP government want Singaporeans to accept lower pay,then LKY,LHL n boot-licker GCT should have their pays cut first.No use going around asking Singaporeans to accept lower salary while they themselves enjoy highest pay in the world,thats totally hypocrite.

And Temasek has lost millions of dollars in foreign investment,this show that Ho Chin is not that talented.So can someone in the government tell me why she is still the chairman n getting high salary.

Now,if i am not wrong,some ppl here are talking about how talented=how much salary one's should get.

So,why is she still in Temasek n taking high salary?

Always remember - the ruling party does not practise lead by examples. Ho jing is still there in Temasek because she is part of the famiLEE

Oh,thats explain it.....So the verdict is,we Singaporeans also no need to get pay cut since our PAP ministers n Lees didnt set a good example.

Thats what the foreigners say guys,"Like father,like son"

My aunty is showing and taking the lead to show to other organisation that we must embrace a family orientated organisation, not those back stabbing and full of office politics kind of organisation
