While that amount is of concern, it is only an estimated 2.4%
that leaves yearly, BUT there are still 97.6% that remains
annually, for replenishment, based on an average of annual
births Spore has. ( not counting our much welcomed new PR citizens
from any country that wants to taste and have a slice of our
freedoms)
Thank god that despite their
Elitist views, the Ruling Elites still have 99% inspired
imagination that differs from a wanna-be Elite in a 'dearHunter'
with a 1% inspiration.
Does the 1,000 loss per annum
amount to 2.4% - or should you not read the following extract
before making another hasty assumption based on your bag of
gas.
“An Interview with Lee Kuan Yew – February 2008”
nbsp;
”I fear the future for my grandchildren may not be as good as
ours was. In Singapore, we now have in our physically limited space
4.5 million people, 3.2 million of them our citizens, the rest
foreigners who came to work here. Our planners are projecting 6.5
million. Our planners and demographers can already see 6.5 million.
I said to them, "Look, go slow. It can't be done in our small city
state."
At the top
end, about 1,000 a year. That's a loss of 4
percent or 5 percent. But compensating that, we have
Chinese and Indians coming here looking for better prospects. So on
balance, we're still gainers. But the day will come when China, in
30 or 40 years, will offer better prospects than any country in the
world.”
Only the stupidity of a uninspire
thinker as a 'dearHunter' can willingly accept the loss
of presumptious 2.4% - when the actual loss is 4 or 5
percent from the top crust of Singapore society - and to willingly
embrace foreigners of questionable talents and
loyalty into our midst.
Even the Great Mentor Shepherd is
aware that towards the future - as the economies of China and
India advances, they will attract the present migrants from
Singapore to return to their home countries.
These 1000 who leaves should be glad that they have this freedom
to do so, freedom of which some here constantly harp on being
denied.
Only a deluded 'dearHunter' will
hear voices that no one can hear - did any of your audience hear of
Singaporeans not having the freedom to migrate ?
This is a clear example of the
creativity of a dearHunter's 1% inspired mind can cook up new
fantasies of Singaporean complaints about life in Singapore - which
literally amount to the exercising of his brilliantly
thought out "Freedom to Slander" that is so artfully practised by
his Great Mentor Shepherd with absolute impunity and
immunity.
Furthermore, they had used some of our tax contributions thru
subsidization during their formative years, and yet we ask
nothing back from them.
"They had used some of
our tax contributions thru' subsidization.." - did you use 99%
perspiration to produce this brilliance nonsense which do
not recognise that they have not paid their dues - in the form of
taxes or other forms - whether paid by them or their parents
?
From their contributions that
result in the present infrastructures that are built and left
behind by their migration - are you not the one with the remaining
Singaporeans to benefit from their foregone contributions
?
With your condescendingly cheap
and thoughtless statements made - are you not seeking some
gratitude from the Singaporean migrants for your tax contributions
used during their formative years ?
Personally, i wish them well, and may they have a better grasp
of the world and politics. In time, they will return, as some of
them did. We may not be the best, but we are a loser society, where
the strong will never abandon the weak, but protect them. Let them
have a taste of a winner society, where only the strongest survive
and the weak left to die homeless on the streets.
With your narrow views of the
World seen through the opening of your $27 garbage bin, it will do
yourself some good if you keep some of your wishes for your own
beneift to have a better grasp of the world.
It will
also benefit your audience if you should decide
to keep out of politics until you learn to depend on more then
1% inspiration.before wasting your 99% perspiration to endlessly
re-arrange your political garbage in your tight Made-in-North Korea
garbage bins.
