No need for Singaporeans in Singapore

‘Singaporeans biggest threat to Singapore's growth

Singapore's citizens are the biggest threat to national growth, said analysts at Goldman Sachs at an annual wealth conference yesterday, held in Marina Bay Sands.

Speaking at a panel discussion about emerging markets in Asia, the analysts agreed that the increasingly vocal citizenry in the once-orderly island has disrupted economic growth for 2013 and will continue to be a drag on the economy for years to come.

"Let's be honest here. Does Singapore need Singaporeans? No. The children are taken care off by foreign domestic helpers, the hawkers are Malaysian (PRC Chinese), the buildings are constructed by Bangladeshis. All Singaporeans are good for are populating the army, which has never gone to war!" said emerging markets specialist, Thomas Money.

Money pointed out that Singapore's only comparative advantages against its competitors were location, and immigrants. He proposed slowly phasing out Singaporeans so they would be unable to interfere with pro-growth government policies.

"I love the country, but I really can't stand the people and their disgraceful sense of entitlement. The weather's great, the gastronomy scene is livening up in Marina Bay Sands, and the women are gorgeous. But the xenophobia on the island is extremely troubling. Without foreigners like myself who bring in capital without paying taxes, Singapore would not be where it is today. And no Singaporean ever thanks us for gracing their backwater island with our presence and cash." "If things don't improve, I might just pack up and leave."

Other analysts on the panel also noted that as Singapore grew at an astronomical pace under a soft-authoritarian regime, the only way to preserve the country's economy, is to regress democratically.

"I'm quite ashamed of Singaporeans too," said commodities specialist Chao Hee Lang who is a local and a weekend volunteer at a migrant workers NGO.

"All this xenophobia and hatred... No wonder Lee Kuan Yew once said that only educated people should be able to vote. People like myself, who can see that freedom is not always a good thing."

"God bless the foreign workers. Without them working at ridiculously low wages, we would never get anything done. And yet, no one is grateful to them for doing us a favour!"

The panel discussion was chaired by Acting Ministry for Economic Affairs, Mr Jin Jue Lui who reassured the audience that the government was already working on a plan to reduce the proportion of native citizens in the population to about 50% by 2030.’

When I first read the article I was naturally annoyed. How dare these people talked about Singaporeans in these ways and that Singaporeans are really not needed in this country. Oops, I mean city or is it hotel? On reflection, I think they made perfect sense. From the cleaners in the foodcourts to the top leaders, none of them are needed, really.

As for the cleaners, they are old, slow and not cheap. They can be easily replaced by the CBF foreign workers. The construction workers are all foreign workers, and so are the retail and sales staff, and the nurses. The doctors too are increasingly being recruited from overseas.

In the PME categories, banking and finance are now nearly all filled by foreigners from the West and India, or at least in top and middle management. And don’t have to say about the IT industry as probably 90% are from India. Their dominance in this industry has made Java and C programming language obsolete. The new language used is Tamil.

For the top political leaders, why is there a need for them and to pay them such a huge salary to prevent them from corruption. Remove this profession and there will be great savings. No need to pay for the fear of corruption. And no need to pay for life long pension in the millions to keep them from being corrupt while in retirement.

What is left that the Singaporeans are deserving to be here? Producing babies. But they failed miserably in this. They can’t produce and for those who can, they are demanding a ransom from the Govt. What for paying them so much when the ICA could bring in plane loads of whatever colour and creed, whatever age group, and all hungry, willing to work and exceptionally talented. Isn’t it so much cheaper, efficient and effective to just import the heads for the needed workers to service the economy?

I think the only thing that is of value in the Singaporeans is the properties they owned, private and public flats. Why not encouraged them to sell at a good price to foreigners and move them to JB, Batam or Lijiang or perhaps some paradise in India?. As for the private property owners, they could sell their properties in the tens or hundreds of millions and could even buy Buckingham Palace in the cheap. Then all these people can have their Tea Parties to make merry in Hyde Park or any parks in Australia, New Zealand, Canada, USA or anywhere. No need to kpkb in Hong Lim Park.

Seriously, Singaporeans are no longer needed in Singapore. As for the NSmen, what is there to defend when Singaporeans are not needed and the country populated by foreigners and their companies and businesses. Talking about this, in the 60s and 70s when there was no jobs, we invited the MNCs here to create jobs for jobless Singaporeans. Today, Singaporeans not only did not want to work, they are also expensive. It is more economical and productive to import factories and companies here, lock, stock and barrel, with their foreign employees. Cheap and good and fit the CBF model. They can hire 100% foreign staff, not an issue.

So, did I make my point clear, that there is really no need for Singaporeans anymore?
