what is there to be surprise about that?
what is implied when a person takes citizenship?
i tell you 1 incident of a new immigrant.
he works mainly , most of his time, outside sg.
his family is entirely overseas in his original country.
he dislikes sg lifestyle or working life.
i thus asked him, why took up citizenship?
he said he was given, so why not?
then i realise he also enjoys using the passport to work
in the west and elsewhere.
before his son turned 18 or 19 for NS, being PR, he gave a
reason to give up PR of his son who is now studying in his original
motherland.
so , the moral of my little story is this.
a person who takes up citizenship does not show me why he took
it up. it could be for numerous reasons.
please ask those new immigs why and report to this forum
so as to achieve prosperity and progres for ours national.
i have similar colleagues like that before;
- one FT was educated in hwa chong jc and nus degree in
engineering, spoke lousy english and asked me to correct/improve
his cv. constantly hear him saying how sg cannot make it and how
great china is. strange thing is; he has been here for nearly 10
years with no ns, and think he has moved to usa for work and living
there permanently.
- another FT, saw him in ncs and in the last company, quiet
fella and i asked him casually if he has taken up citizenship. he
said yes and added that having a red passport is for convenience
and nothing else. WTF does he need to say the last statement to me
for?
some FTs are making a fool out of the whole citizenship thing,
and thank to the foreign-worshipping, local-bashing PAP that we are
in this mess.
