If u old LV guys know that LV128 .

His wife is a pinay . They married over 10 years liao , son also in sec school liao .

She speak english with singapore accents , so does that mean she is a foreigner still ?

Nope , i would say she is a Singaporean , cos very strraight forward , she married a Singapore man for more than one decade and has got a NRIC pink colour IC .

Pink colour as in what ?

knn Singaporean lah , Singaporean cannot drive taxi ?

So Pinay women drive taxi , very surprising meh ?

Rbs70 SG

Actually is true lor, some TD got mix blood and their name sound like foreigner lor........

And than Singapore originally all immigrant mah........

Unless the rules of obtaining TDVL had change, which need a bill of law to approve, which will make known in parliament, than we can officially declared that FT had taken over the steering.......

Canton keith SG

I wonder if foreigners are being allowed to drive our taxi, will those executive from NTA recall our 100k tdvl holders come out to BANG TABLE. ....?

Poolman SG

Pre-requiste for becoming a Taxi Driver:
- Must be at least 30 years of age.
- Possess a valid class 3/3A driving licence.
- A Singapore Citizen.
- GCE'O' Level or 'N' Level pass in English (at least an D7 grade) / Level 3 or higher pass in English (WPL-CAT)
- Have at least a one year driving experience with a clean driving record.

As of 1 June 2012, TDVL holders will be allowed to extend their vocational licences up to 75 years old, subject to passing a special assessment annually.

As long as this Pre-requiste ruling never change , work permit holder can never drive a cab . Not even S-pass holder .

If u think carefully , Singapore government spent so much time and effort to lure FT into S'pore , was that to boost the taxi drviers rate ?

No lah , there is much more important priorities for them to do with S-pass holders , taxi driving will never be in their agenda .

Poolman SG

With now taxi drivers Q-ing to be hirer for taxi companies ..... was there a need for them to do that ?

To allow work permit holders to work as taxi drivers ?

Work permit holders is required for industries like constructions , maufacturing , hotels , customer service ....... not for taxi drivers at the moment .

j007 SG

as long as they have the criteria, who can say no?

theres no '2nd class citizen' anyway, all the same, so some of these new SC, they can't get employment, and need a car, drive a cab loh

Reliefdriver4u SG

Its happening ... but whats new ?

As super relief, I have partner with numerous ex malaysians, many ex hongkongers, plenty ex prc ...

Most have been sinkified so much that they talk and behave like singaporeans, probably retaining only abt 10 to 20% of their ex-country's accent

If you drive, CDG and look into their driver's portal, its not difficult to spot new citizens through their name, i can spot some filipinos even, though i have not partner one b4 ...
