Too many foreingers taking out jobs, making some of us losing
our jobs. ERP everywhere. Do what also need pay above $2. Buy cig
from msia tio summon. Park car abit late tio summon. Speed abit tio
summon. Flick abit ash on floor while smoking also tio summon.
Everything so exp. All prices keep going up but our pay never go
up. Soon, even a simple plate of chicken rice is gonna hit $4. BUT,
they only reason i love singapore because its safe. What a high
price to pay for safety.
There's a price to pay for everything isn't it?
Can you imagine a day when the government fully restricts the
employment of foreign workers? Do you know how much our labour
costs would rise if that happens and how many foreign companies
would relocate overseas? And how many jobs would be lost due to
that?
The government does in fact impose a minimum employment of
residents for most companies. This would help to safeguard our
welfare isnt it? The flexible and open labour policies helps us to
widen our originally very small labour pool and help lower labour
costs within the country, thus attracting investors here. Creating
jobs and generating wealth. Without the foreign workers would we be
better off? i don't really think so.
It is true that we may lose our jobs due to the competition from
foreign labour. But overall, an open policy towards foreign workers
will provide more growth for the country, especially during an
economic downturn like now.
