k. shanmugam's latent threat is another clear example of veil
threat to fellow singaporeans. a man of his intelligence has to
stoop to that level.
does he mean that if there are no foreigner, there will be no
roads, hdb flats to be built? will the elected government then not
think of other viable solutions to overcome it?
in the first place, no singaporean ever said a `zero tolerance'
of foreigners in singapore. we need them, a fact that cannot be
disputed.
the issue at hand, that is still not addressed, is what section
of industry that we need foreign workers, what is the wage level
that singaporeans needs to be at in order to be able to live with
some tinge of pride as singaporeans and how to adequately address
and balance short and long term needs of singaporeans without
causing stress of everyday living of the population.
making such sweeping statement is ducking the issue.
that the way PAP always engage. evading question or issueing
threat to silence the crowd.
you are right, no one say, we dont need foreign workers, but we
need to keep a cap.
If u pay the aussie kind of salary, i bet there are many
volunteers to build the road for you. If he ask, are we willing to
pay for that thru higher taxes. i would challenge" arent we paying
high enough road, tax, ERP , and where has all the money goes
to"?
such meet the ppl session which is not interactive enough are
not of any use. As usual, they are taking us for a ride!!
