lionnoisy SG

It is sad we lose 10 talents to Oz a day.

But we shall be happy Sporean is free to leave SG for good anytime and to anywhere!Sporean is easy to apply migration visa to foreign countries.

Why so many FT come to SG??

Are there somethings in SG so attracive that Sporean cant appreciate,but FT take note?

Pl show the average income and qulifications of PR and FT here.

Facts

http://www.singstat.gov.sg/pubn/popn/respop.pdf

In 2007,SG population comprlse of 3.6 Resident population(citizens

and PR,Permanent Residents) and 1 million foreigners.

PR is just like citizens,except cannot get SG passport,

vote/to be voted,buy direct HDB,and receive benefits restriced

to citizens.

SG do not allow dual citizenship.But PR can free to hold any citizenship(s)

and PR in any countries.PR is holding blue IC and eligible slightly lower

medical subsidy.

Foreigners(FT) refer to non--PR.FT is not holding Blue IC but only

--works permit,

--employment pass,and their approved family,including their in--laws,

--students pass and their mothers or grand mothers.

2.FT is increasing from 812,000 in 2001 to 1 million in 2007.

The figure dipped a little bit to 740,000 in 2003,SARS year.

So,from 2001 to 2007,on average 85 FT come to SG a day on averag.

If u calculate from 2003 to 2007,178 FT come to SG a day on average!!

The Figure is not telling the true picture

U have bear in mind in the past few years,about 50,000 FT became PR

and about 10,000 PR became Spore citizens!

Why SG can feed so many people

3.Except few FT broke the laws,just like some SC(spore citizens) broke the laws,

all other FT contribute to SG economy legally.

FT cant get any hand outs.How can they survive?

I think is the economy!yes ,many jobs go to FT.

There are 800,000 FT workers here.

4.Business Times 04.12.2006 foreign workers in Singapore:

''Foreign workers 670,000(756,000 in 2007,read below) comprising the followings--

including Employment holders 65,000(high skilled )

...............S pass 25,000(mid-skilled)

.......Work permit(non--domestic worker) 420,000 (factory,construction ,nurse workers etc)

.......work permit(domestic worker) 160,000 (maid).''

Pl note family of EP and S pass holders can stay in Spore and work.Their parents and in--laws also can stay here.

In the past few years,more WP holders become PR easier than before!!

Sooner or later, the house of cards will collapse.

wah.so chim!!we need jobs and money come to IRAS rather than this kind of remote topics!

Poh Ah Pak SG

chim what chim?

Strengthen the cultural and national identity of the people and they will feel proud and motivated.

They will not want to leave Singapore.

They feel proud to be Singaporean.

They might even die for Singapore.

No brain drain.

When people see some things as beautiful,
other things become ugly.
When people see some things as good,
other things become bad.

If you overesteem great men,
people become powerless.
If you overvalue possessions,
people begin to steal.

You keep on bullshiting and emphasing on foreign talent, you make the local feel small and worthless.

They become demoralised.

Killer instinct gone.

PAP regime should reflect on why the killer instinct is gone.
