My foreign talent classmates

JackOT SG

LOL. For a moment...
Really, it's not as drastic as this? Anyway, imagine EPL with only English players. The standard of EPL was raised by the foreigners who has something extra to bring to the audience. I do not strongly agree that we need foreigners to take up our rice bowls, but I think they will help to keep Singapore more competitive than other countries. If we just think about keeping our rice bowls, we will find ourselves behind our neighbouring countries one day. For those graduate taxi drivers, all hope is not lost. Nobody can force you to pick up career you don't want, unless you give up hope.

YES! I can't agree more! Most Singaporeans are too well protected... When they see compeition right in their face, their first reaction is not to strive and compete, but to whine and complain about the government.. In order for the economy to do well, we have to open our doors to foreigners... We have to globalize... We need a global market to survive... We cant survive on our own puny market!

For those who can't see the big picture, you only think about your own selfish benefits... ok lor, let's say we do not open our doors to foreigners... then Singaporeans get all the benefits... you get your jobs... you get your high pay... although you dont really deserve them cos you aint good enough and u faint in the face of competition... then when everyone is so happy, singapore's economy starts to decline... businesses close down... jobs are lost.... everyone becomes poor! yay!

For those who can't face the competition, please pack up and leave singapore by all means... go join Survival at some deserted island where no forgeigners will ever find their way there... or go to some backward countries and live your life in a stupid village or kampong.... in such places, confirm no competition one... but you dont get the luxuries of a developed country... too bad... it's a trade off...

[b]For all your whiners out there, please leave Singapore immediately so that you wont stifle our progress....

For the rest out there, come on! Prove your worth! We aint inferior compared to foreigners! Strive hard![/b]

Not shut the door totally, limit the numbers of Ft coming to sg. And increase the number of years they have to work in sg. 3 years is really a short time. Most my china frens say they wish to return to china to get high salaries job. Its the cert they want not the $$. In that case sg govt just waste OUR $$ proving the Fts with scholarship but after 3 years they head back to them homeland. So does that globalize our country or the other way round?

Sg govt shall support our local ppl more by give them $$ to study overboard n come back to sg to make it a more advance and develop country. Rather den supporting those foreign student to study here to work for only 3 short years to find out that they will return to their homeland after the bond. Wink

Fey Mae SG

The Peacemaker SG

FOR OUR OWN GOOD? PUI!

they are here just to top up PAP's already limited pool of supporters and throw their weight about.

we don't have to open up the flood gates. limiting the influx isn't so difficult either.

i hate to imagine all the aliens and foreign trash i have to face when i step out to the working world a few years later. and there's the future generations after mine. they are bearing the full bulk of the burdens tossed by PAP. spare a thought for them.

boredtulan SG

in the local corporate scene, never seen worse backstabbers than malaysian fts.... beware beware beware

and when you go for reservist they will rejoice and use your absence to their full advantage.... if you're still in school, just wait and see

Agenda SG

For people who are dissing this thread: Don't come crying anywhere when you lose a job to a FT Wink

You may come from a rich family who can afford to send you to Australia or UK to get a degree but how many here have to be stuck with a Diploma? Even if every fucking singaporeans score A1s, How many can become a Bill Gates or Donald Trump?

If its so easy, Let's all just work and we'll only need 1 school here because everyone's the same standard

cock talkers...

Anyways, I intend to start my own biz when I get out of NS then hire all singaporeans only and when earn enough

I'll shift to somewhere else and renounce my sg citizenship

The low birth rate really must blame LKY, cause last time got disincentive to have children one, say one is enough, two just nice. My brother almost couldn't study in the same primary school as me last time due the disincentive. My mother could have a third child but due to the disincentives, she aborted the third one. Then when the time comes to apply primary school, it reaches the time where those with 3 children got incentives, but these are the people who ignored the government campaign last time and have 3 children instead. So basically, people nowadays will just ignore the government when they encourage birthrate, who knows when they will pull away the incentives. Like maybe 5-6 years down the road when u have 3-4 children, then they found birthrate too high, then say 2 is enough campaign again and then pull the incentives then u are with 4 children who are going to go to primary school, later hard to get the children into the same primary school because of the new government policy changes where maybe only the 2nd child got piority and the rest of the children have no such privilege when it was promised years earlier.

I remember my mother has to argue with the school to get my younger brother a place in the same primary school as the policy then has changed to favour those with 3 children who are people who ignored government policy earlier. Make me bitter just to think of it. I am deprived of a sibling because of the campaigns, then pull the privileges later. Mad

charlize SG

Last time, stop at 2.

The result? Not enough people today.

Now, have more. And import more people into the country too.

20 years later? Too many people.

And the whole cycle continues. Laughing

<Precious> SG

So take revenge by becoming an expatriate (fforeign talent) in Siberia lor!

Maybe they realized that they may work for a lifetime and still own nothing. No property, no car, no girlfriend or wife but despite all these, he still have to work longer hours and little recreation. An Idea struck them. All their talents are better used elsewhere and they can have a better living too. Sadly, ppl are still voting for the same group of ppl who have made their lives even miserable. Are they dumb or what? Confused

#$%^&* SG

So Caramon,

Is the above copy-and-paste also? Or your own writing? Just curious.

The Peacemaker SG

spread the word! vote them out!

raymond_sianz SG

Becos the opposition are too weak in Singapore. I can't bare to throw my vote on some O level students which don't even make a decent living outside. If you tell me you are doing well outside and have very successful, Then means that are you capable and ready to join the politics.

MingFreeman SG

They were retrenched when their jobs were taken up by the aliens.

They had no choice but to be taxi drivers.

No wonder, spore claims its transport system to be world class. Local grads and mbas are the drivers! Maybe nxt time, local grads will become mrt or bus drivers too! World class public transport!

[email protected] SG

Opposition is oppressed by the PAP. That's why they appear weak. I rather vote those O level students who have the hearts to serve the ppl than vote for some scholars who is more interested in climbing up the political ladder.
