I'm not in favor of having too large a number of any particular race here.merit based immigration with unique skills as a key factor..

huaqing SG

i heard from some people that as long as foreign males apply for National Service, after they have completed it they will automatically get Singapore Citizenship. Is that true?

If it is true, then would it be a little too easy for them to get Singapore Citizenship?

LazerLordz SG

Not every foreigner, only those with PR, or are children of Singaporeans or 2nd Gen PRs I think.

baer SG

depends on situation. If highly expatriat’s child, with place reserved in Univ does NS, ‘no reason to refuse’. However, was NSMan (reserveist) with singapore PR (from India), only after serve 13 yr cycle given red passport. Not auto for his child or wife. Singapore still picky after do NS

huaqing SG

But i heard that some foreigners, if when they reach JC their result is good then the government will ask them if they want to serve NS and get Citizenship...

is that true?

hisoka SG

erm actually they may not need to do ns. not sure abotu the policy though

LazerLordz SG

This is somewhat true.It's called naturalisation by virtue of having served NS.

huaqing SG

erm...what is naturalisation by virtue of having served NS???

i am confused

is it true that malaysian are not suppose to do NS to get citizenship?

anyone can confirm wif me?

huaqing SG

i heard that Malaysians can get PR easily then after that the government will ask u whether u wanna be citizen or not so u apply lor

798 SG

cos i found out that singapore power make sure that no IAP students are from malaysia.

i think singapore is very cautious such a thing. this is to prevent spies from other countries to know the interior of singapore.

but funny thing is sg willingly to accept china and other countries in.

Haven’t you fellas heard? SGaporeans aren’t fucking nowadays. Not many people have many childrens, not with all the steep and increasing cost of living in SG. If you care to look at population growth, it showed staggering increases. My bet is that the bulk of them were foreigners from Taiwan & Hong Kong. Surely you don’t want Europeans in large numbers, do you?

beavan SG

i don’t see why not..

LazerLordz SG

That is a policy which I disagree with.

China?They'd stab you in the back for a dollar. Mad

nismoS132 SG

huaqing SG

lwflee SG

Only malaysian can sign on and become citizen after a certain no of years in the police or SAF. This is no secret, although selection will be tough. A lot of cisco officers are malaysian.

AF2005 SG

Foreign males cannot sign on or go NS to become citizen except malaysian. Only PR status born here or one of the parents a citizen must serve NS, and citizen also not guarantee.

Thats why a lot of PR of the above status live in malaysian have to come back singapore serve NS. So it is no surprised that there are a lot of singaporeans living and working in malaysia, and marry there and their children will still have to come back and serve NS. Except for those born in malaysia and can get citizenship thru connections, if not they can be stateless in malaysia if born there.

But foreigns who are professional can become citizens if they and their families are worthy to this country, after maybe staying here more than ten years.

AF2005 SG

some parents work or study in say australia, give birth there, the child automatically qualify for some benefits like state education when he grows up. The child can apply to study there at local rate after his NS.

Fatum SG

you think they, (the ang mohs) would want to come and sink their roots here ? ... Confused
