It is actually better to be a citizen of any EU country than
Singapore.
Why?
Singapore is the only country that has such an open leg foreign
talent policy. In the places I’ve work in, there are so many
protectionist policy that help the locals that only really talented
people can get a work visa. So, even if I give up my Singapore
citizenship, I can still come back to her – the govt does not
discriminate! What is the real use of the Singapore citizenship
when my political power is so limited, my voice is unheard, my
freedom restricted and my life in fear of the government because
I’ve a political opinion?
There’s simply benefits at all keeping a Singapore citizenship.
You don’t get to live and work in any Asian country you want.
What’s more? CPF, NS liabilities and high
cost of living. Working here as a foreigner is very easy as well,
so why be a Singaporean?
But what about the EU? You get to work in any EU countries, and
including the fantastic package of working in Singapore too simply
because our govt really likes immigrants doesn’t care. In EU
countries, you get to enjoy many rights which can never be enjoyed
in Singapore. Oh and yes, LGBT gets more
rights in the EU than Singapore. Their marriage is recognized –
here, we have bigots using pro-family as a cover for their
homophobia.
Racism in EU? Oh don’t be a deluded Singaporean again. I’ve met
very little racism there in the EU, probably because I assimilated
well and adapt to their culture. I also believe that the
PAP should stop playing the xenophobic card
on the PRC immigrants in SG – they often
refuse to learn the local language and ignore local customs and
rules and act as if they’re still in China. They talk loudly on
trains, refused to learn English despite the fact the English is
Singapore’s working language, and basically being a bull in a China
shop – this is the type of immigrants no country WANT.
Even you, Singaporeans Chinese reject this kind of people. Now,
if you do what I do, assimilation, there’s no problem for you.
DON’T play the race card anymore. It’s
preventing your personal development.
