My parents are also China born, so? they are not less of a
Singaporeans than many old generation singaporean who have
contributed much to the country. Tao Li and all others migrated
here and they fly Singapore flag. They deserve whatever inventives
the government is giving out to encourage people to venture into
sport.
Did they come here for money? if there don't perform, they are
worse off than many people because they have given up the normal
route of making a successful life. They choose sports. If they
don't make it, they are nobody.
Do you have the potential to be a great sportperson who can fly
Singapore flag high? If you don't then let there be inventive and
encouragement and rewards for those who can.
Mix mix up politics with sports.
No,we might not have the potential to be great sportsmen but WE ARE
TRUE SINGAPOREANS.
Please don't mix politics with NATIONALISTIC PRIDE.
It is the very same PRIDE that your own motherland CHINA is
showing in the olympics now.
If Singapore were to follow your mentality of importing forgeign
talents,there will be no more space for local atheletes as there
are many foreigners who are better than us.
We have the money but we want our own SINAGPOREAN PRIDE too
please,thank you.
