I usually respect foreigners coming here trying to make a
living, only if they come alone. However, these filipinos are
taking over our service jobs. Reason, cheap labour. I am irritated
by just hearing that tagalog. Everyday in the mrt, they will speak
loudly and inconsiderate. They do not show respect to our elderly
by not giving up their seat. I am truly disgusted by them, i work
in a retail line and thank god my company do not accept filipinos
or PRCs. But the immigration of singapore needs to know that
filipinos who come here on a holiday are actually here to find a
job. They have been entering my store with resumes in hand asking
for vacancy. I simply tell them that they have to attain a working
visa. They say they don't have cause they intend to apply after
they get a job here. This should not be allowed. I do not wish to
see filipinos as a culture in singapore. Singapore should have a
singaporean test for them to go through and not anyhow accept these
filipinos into the singapore society.
i see service has always be lowly paid and perceived as a low class
job. becasues to o many cheap labor around. next time you encounter
such cases, please hold them or their formal documents. the
immediately call MOM or police. such are illegalacts no different
from touting or seeling prostition on the streets.
if more sgreans report such cases. they willknow we are a
country free weclome for allnationalities but not a country with
laws you can fuck around with.
as a true singapore, you should report.
