In every country, there is always some discrimination, and Singapore is not spared from this disease. The discrimination is so serious in Singapore that ministers have come out to make a stand, that discrimination must be stopped.
The joke is that in every country, the discrimination is always against foreigners in matters between citizens and non citizens. In Singapore, it is discrimination against Singaporeans practised by foreigners in the country. If this is not nauseating, just listen to the govt’s plea with the foreigners not to discriminate against the locals.
Where on earth can one find the citizens being discriminated by guests who were in the country with the blessings and consent of the citizens? Now, what is going on? The foreigners are acting like masters of the island and the victims are the meek citizens who are at the mercy of foreigners. I can’t believe it but it is true. And the best the govt could do is to make a plea to the foreigners to be nicer to the citizens. Contrast to many countries whereby foreigners tremble at the sight of the locals. It is now a common occurrence that foreigners will beat up locals or talk down to the locals.
This is what is happening when the citizens did not know of their rights to the country and by default allowed foreigners to think the citizens owed the foreigners a living. Is this the new variation of modern day colonialism, when the colonised gave up their rights to their country without fighting, and in a silver platter to the foreigners? If this is going to be the norm, then Singaporeans should prepare themselves to call the foreigners masters. The picture will be complete when the foreigners have bought up everything in the island.
Here are some points:
ReplyDelete1 The main reason for opening the borders to foreign influences and competition was to "wake up the ideas" of complacent, pussy-the-world-owes-me-a-living Singaporeans.
2 Respect, being a VALUE is EARNED. The Discrimination is part of life. Grow the fuck up and deal with it.
3 If you have what it takes, discrimination IS a hilarious laughing matter. Ridicule it. Laugh at it. If you take it seriously that's YOUR own problem. We all make an are thus responsible for our own emotions.
4 If you play the douchebag victim and make a big deal to the govt, you deserved to BE REPLACED by a foreigner.
5 The "meek" inherit nothing. If you have no courage, chances are you will lose.

ReplyDeletePleading with foreigners to please treat sinkies with mercy is surely very undignified and shameful, to say the least. Look what the worship of money has done to us.
ReplyDelete/// The foreigners are acting like masters of the island and the victims are the meek citizens who are at the mercy of foreigners. ///
ReplyDeleteWhat do you expect when the political leaders are still suffering from the Pinkerton Syndrome? This is the only logical outcome since the politicians worship the foreigners as "talents" and label the locals as daft and needing to have spurs poke at their bottoms every now and then.
The solution is short & simple;
ReplyDeleteVote out the PARASITES!
We want a pro-Singapore government
Excuse me. I have am PRO Singapore.
ReplyDeleteIt is the small mindedness of dead shits who want to hold progress back because they are too lazy, too stupid, or both.
These fuck heads are sabotaging the cuntry and the future generations. Having an open door and policy which encourages free exchanges of labour, capital, skills, culture and ideas has the best LONG TERM benefits.
New definition for Matilah Singapura :
IT IS THR THE PEOPLE AND NOT THE GOVERNMENT THAT WILL SABOTAGE THE CUNTRY by not allowing NEW ideas and the necessary paradigm shifts to occur.
Bring it on. Singapore 2030 population 9 millions and rising!!
Slogan mongering deaf frog.
ReplyDeleteMatilah, you are spouting your bullshit again. For a person without a country, your position is the best. I will agree with you if the govt decides to sell the whole country and share the spoils with all citizens.
ReplyDeleteThe problem with you is that you are presuming that many Singaporeans are lazy bums and need to be culled. The truth is that most Singaporeans are pretty decent people and very hardworking, with a few exceptions.
If not we would not be where we are today. The painful part is that the foreigners and Johnny comes lately are reaping the rewards of our parents toils and thinking that they are here to help the Singaporeans. And some jokers even reinforced this myth by telling the Singaporeans and the world that this is so.
After 50 years of talented leadership, me feels that Singaporeans below 50 year old are all naturally talented.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately nature has consigned the tiny dot to be just a tiny rock with little or no resources. And they are all sold out, so what can the talented in Sin do?
More talented Singaporeans than the talented ones got out of Sin, enjoy better livings elsewhere and laugh at those that got stuck at home.
Here in Sin, we got taxi drivers with Phd, ex-senior executives working as security guards, graduates as serving staff and many as casino executives. Not talented meh?

The PAP discriminates against Singaporeans simply because they know they will still win in every election regardless of whether the Singaporean voter is discriminated against or not.
ReplyDeleteIn any other country the ruling party would need every vote from its citizens and so they would not dare to discriminate against its own people. But not so in unique Singapore, period. Here the PAP has incentive to favour the foreigners because in due course these foreigners will become citizens soon, and they will vote PAP to repay them for being treated so well. So, PAP does not need the vote of longstanding Singaporeans because they can count on the votes of the new citizens.

ReplyDelete>> you are presuming that many Singaporeans are lazy bums and need to be culled <<
Damn right. And I am not alone in this view.
P.S.
ReplyDeleteI'll say it again:
1 Just because his mother's cheebye happen to be in S'pore when it ejected the baby, doesn't give that person any "special rights" over and above another human being.
2. The people get the govt they deserve
3. You can't cheat an honest man
4. "Old" thinking hold the whole cuntry back
Depends on which shoe one is wearing. In your shoe, cull them all and bring in all the foreign talents.
ReplyDeleteBut when wearing the citizen shoe, the citizens will boot out any political leaders that are trying to sell them or their country to foreigners.
What nonsense are you talking again?
ReplyDeleteThe people (sheeple) get the government (leaders) they deserve
....meaning: the leaders/government which is in power is supposed to be, 100% 'best and only choice at this particular time'.
We exist in the PRESENT. No point talking about 'another govt to replace this one...the govt you have in the present is the govt you deserve.
Your knowledge of Buddist philosophy is improving.
ReplyDeleteWhile we allow the foreigners to enter Singapore for the greater benefit, we also need to safeguard the interests of the locals. It is a win-win solution we adopt for the greater good in exchange for some bearable discomfort.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, I find that the government lost the control they are supposed to have and the whole country plunged into a state of ridiculous discrimination against our own people on our own land.
It is somewhat sad that the new line up of government have to 'beg' the foreigners to show fairness to those Singaporeans who deserve. The idea that Singaporeans have to embark on emancipation in our homeland is plain daft. I think it is time for the government to do something about it before it is too late... But at least, we are seeing good starts like this plea, the measures taken to curb the property market against foreigners and so on. Indeed, putting a strong credible opposition in parliament is a good idea as it wakes the ruling party up.
