I copied the above from Singapore News Alternative. I presume that this is real and not a hoax.

Can we spend the money on our children?  I am sure this is not the only advert to one country. There must be more adverts to other countries? How many such scholarships will be given out and how much is the total? Can the MP ask in Parliament how much money have been spent on these scholarships and what is the annual budget. Also why is the govt spending money on other people’s children and not on our children? Is it because we got poor stock?

Why keep throwing taxpayers money to foreigners and children of foreigners? This is our money and any govt spending the people’s money better account to the people.

  1. I dun know whether its a valid reason or not but I am sure that
    One reason that I stay away from HLP yesterday though that was the best chance for me to get acquainted to those single mothers, is because I worry that you are there with your camera and put my picture here.

    I miss that golden opportunity because of you because I am camera shy

  2. Why give these scholarships to those half-baked dubious students from the third world countries.

    KNN using our monies like their ah Kong monies to sponsor these do called talents who turn back and bite you.

    Our students must pass this hurdle that hurdle before even you can study with their own monies dome more.

    To go uni, must have A levels or JC qualifications, other dubious uni direct entry just o levels.

    Certain degree must have pure science subjects plus must have minimum pass in second language.

    All these foreign students with no know what sort of qualifications can granted them scholarships.

    Phi making hurdles so high for our students just to study un our own country with their own monies some more and giving freely free scholarships to these trashes.

    What the fuxc????

  3. "Why keep throwing taxpayers money to foreigners and children of foreigners?"

    - Thats a valid point. After training them, they do not even need to be sinkies. Whereas locals hae to work their asses off to send their kids to school. Where is nation building? Isn't this treason? This regime really need to be discarded.

  6. This Government should announce how many scholarships are given to foreigners each year. The number should be smaller than number given to Singaporeans.

    How hard for them to break the "repayment"? If easy, we could be training up a competitor against Singapore using tax payer money, that is ridiculous stupid.

  11. Relax lah. This smells of politics, maybe 'horse trading'. Singapore and India have a Comprehensive Economic Cooperation Agreement (CECA) and this is probably some kind of "gift", to which Singapore expects India to "reciprocate".

    During the British Rule, Singapore and India were close. Methinks the PAP is on the same path with their version of The British East India Company's (world's largest GLC in history) "success".

    The amount of money is small, but it is not how expensive the "gift" is...it is the "thought which counts"...right? ;-)

    1. Right bro matilah, when SIN is kicked out of Malaysia, the first nation the pap approached to build up our SAF is India.

      But these nehs do not take us as bros or part of east India company.

      They rejected us and our SAF instructors said we are lucky not to be trained by them or else we be polishing our toe najls instead of our boots

      Also, we be carrying sticks to beat the protesters like sheeps and cows.

      Why no offer of their scholarships to sinikies to study in their Unis???

      Anyway, which idiots want to go there and study and come back with dubious degrees in the course of intercourse, oops raping.
