Do you want the TRUTH? You think you can tell the difference between
what's apparent and real? Ever watched
the Matrix?
Current trends and official policies
suggest that within the next 8 years, just slightly fewer than 1 in
2 people you see on the streets will not be a
Singaporean. What really is going
on? What are the implications for those
born and bred and rooted in this country?
PRs on average are more highly skilled, or they are willing to fill
roles which retain
economic values. Hence on average they will earn more than
Singaporeans ==> the real purpose is to expand our tax base, so
govt can collect more taxes! Singaporeans are ageing, we are
spoilt, we do not have necessary skills or not willing to do
necessary work, our indigenous competitive advantage is shrinking
as new global powers emerge, and we are not reproducing fast
enough.... we are a declining economic force. The inevitable is that, left to nature, we as a
nation is past our peak in prosperity, influence and
relevance.
With the concept of PR immigration, we as
indigenous Singaporeans just need to sit back and become
bureaucrats... create the infrastructure of roads and MRTs, vote
the right govt to create political stability, rent out our houses
to give them accommodation... then sit back and collect taxes for
our old
age! THAT'S
OUR BUSINESS MODEL ! What u
think? I think it makes perfect
sense! Ties in with the casino thingy...to expand our tax
base, sustain our tax revenue, defy the odds of decay and old age,
Ni4 Tian1 Er2 Xing2 ! We're preparing
for retirement and beyond, Singaporeans! So what should we as Singaporeans
do? SIMPLE: buy property (and
properties if you can afford), vote PAP, support the party
policies, spend a little in taxes to invest in infrastructure,
welcome the PRs....show them we are great, entertain them, make
them feel safe and secure. COS THEY
WILL BE THE ONES FOOTING OUR OLD AGE BILLS!
The rise and fall of nations is as
inevitable as the cyclicality of seasons. But survival against the odds of natural
selection and evolution is the hallmark of humanity. The ability to conquer what is natural requires
true intelligence. A little planning,
some concerted effort by a united group of people, plus a brilliant
leader, and this group of humanity can multiply to take on the
global village. The Singapore
government has found an exit strategy for us! The end product may
not be what we envisioned, but given the circumstances, its not too
bad. The issue is not about fighting
with the foreigners for jobs (they are too good or too
cheap), it is not about who is 1st or 2nd class citizens. The
issue is how we can benefit from what the gods have dictated shall
be the policy.
We will not be a great nation, we will not
be a great people, we may not forge a great identity, but we will
do all right being owners of a piece of expensive real estate in
the world, owners of a place where others do their businesses, an
enabler for the real movers of shakers of the world. After all, its all about retiring in peace and
providing for our kids isn't it?
Finally I've broken out of the MATRIX...
now I see the TRUTH.
