singaporeans have arrived

today singaporeans are found fighting tooth and nail with foreign workers for their jobs as cleaners and sweepers, as waiters/waitresses and construction workers in their own soil. singaporeans are now hungry enough not be choosy of their jobs and are a strong competitor for jobs that were once the monopoly of foreign workers. and singaporeans are now fairing better than their foreign counterparts. this is especially so for the older singaporeans who cannot afford to retire and need to work till death do they part with their jobs. and they will probably achieve a standard of living as high as the foreign workers. maybe not, as the foreign workers are reported to be paid higher than these have-been workers who are deemed to be over the hills.
