i was involve in a DSO project during my university years, cant go
into the details.
Apparently, they were pretty keen to have me continue on with
the project after i graduate but non-citizens do not have the
security clearence to work on that project (dont ask me
why a non-citizen can work there as "attachment" staff but not full
time staff cos i also dont know).
I got my PR status the month i graduate (in July) but come
Janauary of the next year, i was asked to go to SIR (it was still
call SIR then) for "interview" where i was asked to convert to a
citizenship.
for some reason when i refused, the officers turn hostile and
threatened to revoke my PR status if i do not want the citizenship.
feeling pissed myself, what i actually said was "If you feel the
need to revoke my PR, please do so but you will need to inform MOE
why i cannot complete the 3 years bond I am obligated to serve for
accepting MOE's scholarship grant." SIR back
down then.
I am sure
for those who have read by posts would conclude that i am
mentally unstable to a certain degree but i am still not crazy
enough to really ask ICA officers to suck my cock. Its just a
figure of speech.
After that
incident in SIR, the immigration people still mails me every
january asking me to convert to a singapore citizen which i
promptly ignore every year.
Thats the
whole story.
Now I came
from Brunei where the government covers all medical, dental
and education expenses for its citizens. Why would i give that
up to become a Singapore citizen where i need to pay for
everything? As to why I am working in Singapore, the pay here is
way better than if i were to get a job back in Brunei. Basically
now, i am enjoying the benefits of both countries. Why would i give
that up?
the point of
all my posts is just to tease xtreyier.
in fact, all
this started when i jokingly asked xtreyier for a job as a government propaganda
writer and he started to flame me so i decided to push more of his
buttons. In no way am i trying to insult singaporeans except
xtreyier perhaps
but redDUST decide to join the fight (maybe hes got a singapore
flag shoved up his ass too).
look at
xtreyier and
redDUST posts, they can only post hostile and threatening
statements without an ounce of evidence to back up what they are
saying
sure, xtreyier decided to change
his stand of there is no propaganda in singapore
to there is no propaganda department in singapore
but if that is the case, where are all the propaganda coming from?
the quality of propaganda used to be good, "Singapore will
not bow down to American pressure, Singapore will still cane that
American vandal" brings pride to
Singaporeans compared to the quality of propaganda nowadays,
"Singapore not facing economic depression" when
people are getting retrench left and right.
there is no
such thing as no propaganda/ propaganda department, even private
companies have their own propaganda/ propaganda department. Only
they call it advertising/ advertising department.
what moe scholarship grant are you talking about? can you be
more specific? a scholarship is a scholarship. a grant is a grant.
who are you trying to snook?
if it is the standard 3 yr bond that is required for
non-citizens to serve to `contribute to singapore economically',
then this is a standard clause all non-citizens graduate takes. it
has been there for the longest time. i have been guarantor to
non-citizens in my undergrad days to frens. basically, if one
breaks the bond, you just need to pay back the subsidize amount,
consisting of mainly fees, tuition, etc.
so, it is not a scholarship as you imply if that is what you are
referring to. if not, be more specific what scholarship you have
that makes you so indispensable here to the singapore gahmen?
even for those, i have seen cases where the bonds are broken by
mutual consent, for different reasons.
you think too highly of yourself. not only are you cocky, you
talk cock just as well.
