The new measures taken by Singapore to control the influx of foreigners
working in Singapore ‘has irked India as the new law does not give India
a preferential treatment incorporated in the Comprehensive Economic
Partnership Agreement (CECA) between the two countries, operational
since 2005. This stance by the Singapore Government is expected to
affect Indians working as middle-level managers, executives and
technicians.
Speculations are rife that India might take up the issue with World
Trade Organization’s (WTO) dispute settlement body. However, according
to Singapore such a decision was imperative in the interest of the
natives as the share of the foreign workforce is rising very rapidly.
“… I do not think we have contravened our commitments in the WTO or the
CECA. Moreover, this is not specifically targeted to any one country. We
remain very open to foreign talent,” a senior Singapore government
official told Business Standard…. According to Indian officials involved
in the negotiations, this is a violation of the services trade
agreement under CECA. This will also adversely affect Indians who are
working there as it might lead to job losses, especially for the middle
level workers.
India has submitted a request to Singapore for addressing the matter but has not received a formal communication yet.
Currently, there are about 200,000 non-resident Indians in Singapore
working in ITES, financial services and scientific research sectors
among others, according to one estimate.’ - Business Standard 29 Oct.

Did Singapore sign an agreement with India or any other country that
allows that country unlimited entry of its people into the island? Can
this really be the case? Imagine a little island of 760 sq km signing
such an agreement with countries that have more than a billion people
and they can send any number of people they want here? I don’t think
Singapore officials are that stupid right? There must be some
misunderstanding or misinterpretation of the agreements in this case by
India. No silly govt in the world will open their country to any country
with no restrictions. It is like inviting an invasion and a takeover of
the country.
What is happening? I have faith that our super talents with foresight
and great intelligence would not sell out the country blindly with such
agreements. How can it be?
Chok Tong and George fucking Yeo has sold us out. The above 2 mother fuckers hate Chinese. You go google book and look for Sino-India books you find immense hatred of Indian against Chinese.
ReplyDeleteWhile the low caste local Indian has few or no such conscious, the FT high caste Indians are 100% Hindutva. They hate every good thing in the world. They hate Chinese, Christianity and Islam.
Right now, many Malay radical here are attacking local Chinese tag team with FT Indians. These Malay do not know WTF are the colors of FT Indians. Today, the superstar of Indian politics Narenda Modi are mastermind of Gujarat Muslim Massacre. He has high chance to be the next prime minister.
The only reason I think CECA came into being is PAP hate local Chinese. PAP are bunch of fucking peranakan who hell bent of killing Chinese culture.
The high caste Indians have expereince making Dalits out of people. This fall squarely into PAP evil plans, to make Chinese Dalits.
Other than Indian book, Times of India, in short TOI is today the world's biggest Nazi newspaper and biggest English language newspaper. TOI can hardly stop bashing Chinese on daily basis.
The CECA is like a heavyweight boxing match agreement between one fighter weighing over 200lbs.and the other weighing 100 odd lbs.to punch way above his weight.There's little doubt as to who will get the worst or the best of the deal.
ReplyDeleteVeritas, do you know that Sinkie Chinese women like Indian men, especially the smell.
ReplyDeleteSingaporean Chinese women like $$$. They are sick and slut.
ReplyDeleteWith all the high tech Indian industries setting shop here, Singapore will as great as Mumbai, the silicon valley of Asia.
ReplyDelete"I don’t think Singapore officials are that stupid right?"
ReplyDeleteIs this true?
Can cancer treatment drugs and old age medicine sometimes affect a person's thinking ability?
Indians are going to bankrupt every company they infested. SUN was the leader of UNIX. Its boss Vinod Kolsa flooded the company with Indians. SUN go broke.
ReplyDeleteQualcomm is going bankrupt soon, I bet. Citi is broke without QE under Vikram Pandit.
And Deutschebank now have problem under Ainshu Jain.
FT high caste Indians are the worst kind of human being in universe. I give you an example. FT Indian are the world's most ardent Nazi sympathizer.
ReplyDeleteSubhas Chandra Bose is world big Nazi ally. He was being cursed everywhere in the world. In India, he is worship as a superhero.
Bose is not ordinary WW2 collaborators. I can still emphatized Malay collaborators like Tunku Abdul Rahman, Onn Jaafar and Razak...etc, taking into consideration of historical backdrop.
Bose is an entirely different beast. He is extremely close to Hitler and gangs.
While the Malay collaborators know they are in the wrong and prefer to keep quiet, the FT Indians glorify Bose.
Under the enticement of FT Indians,PAP build for Bose a huge fucking memorial outside Esplanade.
PAP and FT Indians have no shame. FT Indians are also stupid in the sense that they ignore INA was sent by Bose as slave to fight in Battle of Imphal. They got cut down by British Indians.
maybe wooden can enlighten you
ReplyDeletenext will be pinky, baldie
okay prata time for me ...
Hating FT high caste Indian Hindus is the natural response of normal human being
ReplyDeleteI have seen so many Goan blog and write in books how much they hate Hindu and Indians. Goan are 100% Indians. They are Christianize and hence, they are now having some humanity inside them. Christianity is good religion.
Below is blog by Goan.
Fellow Goans, know that Goa's best days are behind us. We are now sailing in the Indian sewer. The worst is yet to come.
Goa's rapid decline has two causes: (a) India, which took over Goa and screwed us,malice a forethought, and (b) Goans - who bear primary responsibility for destroying Goa and helping Indians do the same.
Component (a) is not surprising at all. India's post-1947 record of turning pleasant havens to sh*t overnight is impressive. The crucial thing to understand is that the damage done by India to Goa is irreversible. The other salient point is the speed with which Goa was degraded.
Today we are reaping the fruits of the colossal blunder of 1961 when Goan freedom fighters allowed India to grab Goa without demanding safeguards and controls regulating land and in-migration. What the Portuguese couldn't do in 450 years, Indians achieved in a mere 50. Once inconceivable, slums dot the scape today, and the paan-spit-sh*t uncouth North Indian/bhaiyya/Punjabi horse manure pervades the Goan air. Thank you, India, for nothing.
I do not yearn for the Portuguese, just in case someone gets the idea that my contempt for India's ill-effects on Goa implies endorsement of the Portuguese.
When the issue of Goa being run over by Indians comes up, it is countered by the "constitution," a document Indians have never read and have no use for except when it suits them personally. I ask did Goa have a seat at the table when you drafted your constitution Okay, I get that you grabbed Goa in 1961. Was there a vote taken asking Goans if they want to join your Union ? So what are you talking about, when you grab Goa was an illegal act in the first place.
But the big gun is not the constitution. In these politically correct times, it is the stifling of any discussion through the deployment of words like "xenophobe" and "xenophobia." I don't fall for that trick. You can call me whatever you want (I know which finger to show you in return).
Do Indians really think that our fund of hospitality is limitless That we Goans should welcome every Indian who wants to make a home in Goa Why?
Which fantasy world are you living in?
- Where in India may I find these Indian angels who would willingly let others come into their house, and then later have it taken over, with a smile on their face
- Where are these Indian mahatmas gifted with superhuman limits of tolerance and acceptance of other people, who would countenance outsiders flooding their land and marginalizing the native language, culture, & ethos
I am dying to meet these self-sacrificing Indian princes who have so willingly let go their own comforts, good home & hearth to the outsiders' benefit. Tell me, where should I go look for these divine beings? Surely you know of them, for you expect us Goans to be heroic and put up with your deluge without uttering a whimper of displeasure.
The benisons of Goa were that it was NOT-India. Our spaces were open, uncrowded, and life was relatively pleasant for all. Note that I said "relatively" - there were many Goans for whom circumstances were (and are) tough. But we had none of the wretched poverty seen in the rest of India. Even the humblest Goan had a roof over his head.
ReplyDeleteFew of us had problems with outsiders coming into our state. What we were not prepared for was the rabid Indian grab-fest of the past 15 years, this complete out-of-control inflow, the outright thievery - yes, that is what it is. We have ghatis over-runing the entire state, squatting illegally on public land and then claiming the land for themselves. Does the constitution allow for that At the other end, we have uppity Indians, flush with cash all wanting a piece of Goa.
WHO GAVE THE MANDATE FOR THIS TRANSFORMATION OF GOA ?
Certainly not the Goans. If you poll Goans on migrants, you will know exactly what they think about the influx of outsiders. Ask Goans about mega-projects overwhelmingly they reject them. Privately Goans mutter displeasure about the surging numbers of outsiders all the time,but few are willing to place their voices in the public square.
This entire transformation of Goa is ILLEGAL. Voter rolls have been stuffed by Goan politicians with migrant vote banks. Mega-projects and land deals catering to outsiders almost always start out illegal. But "illegal" and "legal" in India are fungible terms.
What has happened in Goa is at its core undemocratic and without the consent of the majority of Goans. Yet the usual suspects who are otherwise vocal about "democracy" are not to be seen or heard on this topic.
None of this would have come to pass if Goans had gotten their act together. Goan society is deeply corrupt and it is reflected in the people we vote into power time and again. We are a fractious lot. It is alright to have all manner of opinion in the marketplace but at some point we have to be willing to join hands for a common cause. That never happens in Goa. The fault-lines of religion divide us, and make us suspect one another's motives at every step. We will give away the fort to some dirtbag from Delhi than trust a fellow Goan.
The outsiders have us Goans figured out. Even the ghatis know how to play the game. It takes very little to puff up the Goan's silly ego. A little dab of praise here, a word about our "hospitality" there - that's it, you're in.
The outsider quickly learns that it is facile to play one Goan against another. Take the example of the Marxist scum with a Hindu name, preening as the token Hindu here on Goanet, making sure that distrust and fear keep us apart (the guy of the "Broken Piss" fabricated report fame). Unfortunately for him, I rained in on his parade along with Dr. Anil Desai and Dr. Anand Virgincar.
Then we had the Malayalee editor who arrogated to himself the task of defending the Cristo citadel against the 'evil' designs of the Hindoo Manohar P. It took Catholics over a decade to know the guy for the rotter that he is. Now I hear that Goan Hindus have run to some bhailo Baba to help save Goa. This is how pathetic we are. Dempo and Salgaocar would rather have some mediocre Indian putz helm their publications than hire a Goan.
Let us also recognize that Goans have colluded in the selling of large tracts of land. Sharad Pawars' cronies now own huge parcels in northern Goa. Goans themselves have enabled the mega-projects in their villages aimed at outsiders while displacing poor Goans from their old homes. DLF and Raheja can walk in anytime, bribe the sarpanch and panch, and take over while the rest of the village looks on helplessly. For years we have had the extraordinary situation where the panch and sarpanch are on the side of mega builders, in opposition to the villagers who elected them. But the Goan in unperturbed. Mhakka kityaak podlam re
Veritas, you are absolutely right!!
ReplyDeleteJust one good example, This guy what Schooling been deferred from servicing his National Service for his shot at winning an Olympic medal.
This is more for his personal glory than the National glory.
Which other person has been granted deferment of National Service before??
The PAP knows that we are mostly fair, unbiased people and are very "kwa lan"
We can put you there and we can also put you down.
That's why they have divide and rule politics to control us.
What GRC for minority candidates??
We had elected Mt JBL in Anson and others races in other constituencies whilst we are still the majority voters.
And finally, let us not forget the opportunistic dirt bags masquerading as activists. I have already dealt with the GBA in another post. NGOs have also become a cottage industry. The foundations of Goa are being dismantled but the Goa Foundation will be forever. New NGOs are surely taking root now to service the ghatis and all the poverty that India has exported to Goa. Just imagine the grants and invitations to foreign conferences that will pour in. Poverty makes for great business. Ask that guy, the Slumdog Srivastava, who goes around giving seminars.
ReplyDeleteSoon they will be telling us that beautiful Goa only existed in our myths and that ghati culture is the real Goan culture.
The celebrations planned by the Goa govt for Dec 19 are a slap in the face of every self-respecting Goan, and must be boycotted. No, disrupted.
It is Goan money that is being squandered.
50 years of Indian colonization - welcome to Hell.
If the Goans who are 100% Indians hate Indian, why is Singaporean who resent Indians racist?
ReplyDeleteOn the contrary, we need to bash all shit ways of FT Indians. I have read a lot of works by Goans. Goans are Christian converts and has get rid of caste system to large extend. Their people do not shit on the streets. Theft and rape are unknown.
Then India invade Goa, as Indians hate people living in paradise.
Paradise is lost.
Overnight, there are shit everywhere in Goa. They theft and rape. Indians corrupt Goa by enticing its civil servant to corrupt. Worse, caste system is back.
Other than Goa, Kashmiri another 100% Indian hate Indian and Hindu to the core. India play Kashmiri out.
Assamese, hate Indian also even though they are Hindu.
Not to mention Manipuri, Naga, Megalaya, Mizoram, and Tripura.
All India neighbor who are cultural Indian hate Indian like mad. They hope everyday India get destroy. Chief among all is Pakistan.
Next in line come, Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka.
Pakistan and Nepal even cultural India, prefer to side with the good --- China.
China is the force of good in the world.
How can India cultured people side with China against their core culture state India.
India must be a fucking country.
The source is from a paper from India called the Business Standard, as so stated it is cited as to have a reputation of reliability and with responsible journalism.
ReplyDeleteThis has not been the 1st time.
Veritas, can you please state some examples why you have made such a statement on CT and George, I dun think CT would be the one, George, yes, but CT??
Kaki
You think Business Standard has the reach of TOI. TOI has more than 3 million daily circulation. TOI is the mouthpiece of India ruling class and what Indian elites want people to perceive.
ReplyDeleteIf TOI spread hate about Chinese, I would take it that Indian hate Chinese.
YOU GO LOOK AT CHINA NEWSPAPER. We do not spread hate against India.
In short, Indian nationals hate Chinese and want to make Chinese their enemies while Chinese has all the while being gentle to Indians.
Veritas, your view is very strong. There are always the good, bad and ugly in all races.
ReplyDeleteSingapore will be depending on the Indians more and more and we need to work together and live together as one people. Tharman is going to be the next PM at the way things are going.
Be nice to Indians. They are good and will help Singapore move up to the next level of prosperity.
Redbean,
ReplyDeletein other words, our bastards and traitors must have signed something with India without our knowledge with terms to allow unlimited number of Indians to work in singapore in exchange for opportunity to make money for the cronies.
So all the cabinets, pinky, old fart,PAP mps are responsible for it since they AYA to it, so where are they now in regard to this issue.
You think you can make monies from Indians?
ReplyDeleteBe highly alert and guard your mind when you talk to an Indian. Know where you stand, and where they are coming from. Words can twist and turns in nanoseconds.
Veritas, your view is very strong. There are always the good, bad and ugly in all races.
ReplyDeleteSingapore will be depending on the Indians more and more and we need to work together and live together as one people. Tharman is going to be the next PM at the way things are going.

Hi RB,
Not all race are equal. I am a racial realist. There is no reason to explain that FT Indian is a good people if people in India are still swimming in their own shit. Not even africa and the most backward part of Muslim states can match India.
Indian are well known in this world for caste system and racism. Today, it would be suicidal for love bird to engage in inter class romance. In China, this is a no issue.
How can a race be so wicked?
If Hindu Indian is so good, why Goan who are 100% Indian hate India and Indian?
I read some Goan books, blog and forum. They hate India so much that quite a number of them are dreaming China attack India, so that India can break apart and Goa regain independence.
And India being in monsoon region are now having drought in Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh. Is this a joke? The reason of drought is because of wicked nature of Indian prefering to see people die and starve rather than build infra-structure.
China has turn desert in Xinjiang into fertile farmland, by building irrigation networks.
If Goan hate Indian, why are we importing them?
Veritaa, think your exposure to Indians is pretty narrow. Our ministers have been mixing with the best Indians and know them very well and I am very sure they will vouch that the Indians they have known are the most talented and best people to know and do business with. We given built a business park for them.
ReplyDeleteAnd to put money where the mouth is, they have recruited many FT Indians in very important positions, including CEOs. They cannot be wrong.
And we have our very own Tharman, a front runner to be PM, Shamugam, Vivian, and the up and coming Indian minister, his name just slip my mind, getting old.
Different people different experience. If you ask the women they will tell you another different view and experience. They love them.
" You think you can make monies from Indians?"
ReplyDeleteCan you have some brain brawn in how money can be made ? How about indians paying tax, gst, levy, coming to singapore to spend money on ntuc shopping, , and govt-linked system etc ? Isn't all these are money that can be made from them ? And besides , do not forget that the terms might be that singapore govt can do business in india (like military weapons business , did we not see contract by singapore govt to supply military hardware and weapons in public news ?) If these are not profit to be made , what are they then ? Market-subsidy , HAHA ....
the NTUC, controlled by the people's action party turn a blind eye to the opening of the floodgate to third world foreign qualifications/workers
ReplyDeleteseeing the country flooded with, not 50,000 not 100,000 not 500,000 not 700,000 BUT now swarmed and indunated by more than one million OUTSIDERS
why is there vehement resistance objection from NTUC reported?
No Rally and protest on Mayday reagrading the influx?
SO are they rallying for the workers?
the people and workers on the ground are losing faith with the NTUC who is so weak in protecting us the workers, the Spore citizens??
we need to change, revamp, de-politicise the NTUC to better safeguard our workers and fellow Singapore citizens and not OUTSIDERS!
I am a little worried but not that much about our ministers. Vivian is 50% Chinese. His scion is 75% Chinese. With Chinese blood and culture inside him, he may not epouse the FT Indian shit ways.
ReplyDeleteTharman scion is 50% east Asian.
A lot of Indian are proud that Chinese girl like to sleep with Indians. These Indians don think broad enough. It is because of the good virtue of East Asian that any Indians who make it in life prefer to marry East Asian women rather than their own women.
They know that from East Asian woman, their offspring will be brought up properly rather than inheriting the shit culture.
If Chinese is really so shit, like many Malay and Indians describe, how come so many Malay and Indian elites marry our "shit" women. Why not get their own woman.
We Chinese must be confident. We are good people.
Singapore needs to honour its agreements it made voluntarily with another cuntree.
ReplyDeleteIf you really think your govt had no business "selling us out", then you'd better do something about it -- other than spilling your putrid bile all over the internet.
The silence is deafening. Wake me up when you've decided to begin a revolution, passive motherfuckers. Talk shit. Do nothing.
Let's stay calm.
ReplyDeleteIn PAP we trust.
They are on our side.
(Anyway, we know their spurs are on our sides).
ROFL
The time to change NTUC is now.
ReplyDeleteIt can no longer continue to serve our interests being as an instrument of PAP to manage the workers
the influx of the outsiders are met with meekness because it is a toothless tiger to begin with
we are already becoming a minority in the Singapore economy and its workforce
Singapore workers, citizens need and deserve a better, a stronger, more vocal, gutsy union chief that REALLY can protect us the workers from the this outsider policy of PAP !!
as far as the NTUC is not separated from PAP management, NTUC hands would always be tied .
Veritas is very sharp.
ReplyDeleteThe European elite marry Chinese girl. The Malay aristocracy marry Chinese girl. The Indian elite marries Chinese girl.
Why is there no elite and upper class marrying the Indian girls?
@131.
ReplyDeleteYeah, calm. PAP Govt fucks Sheeple citizens arse all the time. Sheeple complain on internet -- call PAP all sorts of rude names, threaten to vote them out...
...tomorrow, docile again. PAP continues to pump the rump of the nation.

Matilah is right. Don't call our govt all kinds of shit names. You can do that to Matilah is ok. He likes it. That is why he is calling everyone names and in a way asking for it.
ReplyDeleteCollectively India and China make up 30% of the world's population.
ReplyDeleteIn an open labour market, the chances of you cometeing against an Indian or Chinese national is very high.
Get used to it lah.
redbean:
ReplyDelete>> he is calling everyone names and in a way asking for it.<
Bring it on motherfuckers. Do your worst ;-)
...and tomorrow the situation will still be the same. I'll still be sitting sweet, and those who complain about "problems" will still have the same "problems" to complain about.
Matilah is immune to all insult and name calling because he already died many times already but resurrect every time. How do I know ? Because his name MatiLah is "Mati (died) La" ! Mati so many times la ... and still growing strong with each resurrection. Redbean, be afraid, be very afraid for the one cannot died. Long live MatiLah !
ReplyDeleteNo worry, Matilah will outlive the PAP with his immortality and see its downfall when we already become dust in the wind.
ReplyDeleteMatilah, with your aborigine killer skill, can you take care of the Aussie cyclist for us? I think you are the best person to piss him off with the experience and skill you have honed downunder.
ReplyDeleteWe are counting on you mate, to do us proud.
'Imagine a little island of 760 sq km signing such an agreement with countries that have more than a billion people and they can send any number of people they want here?'
ReplyDelete- Majority of the voters voted for this bunch of policy makers with their open eyes. They have to accept all the shit that come with it.
To all the fuck head anons: Stop pretending to lick my balls lah, have some respect for yourselves.
ReplyDeleteredbean:
What's this about a cyclist? Have no idea.
BTW, I'm a cyclist. But I have no balls to ride on Singapore Roads. Too many heros in their super-expensive fancy high powered cars drive way too fast and dangerously.
anyway...what's this cyclist story?
Knn Matilah, you have overdosed on drugs? How could you miss this piece of crap from Oz? Read this link, http://www.tremeritus.com/2013/10/11/ft-cyclist-breaks-traffic-rules-challenges-driver/
ReplyDeletePlease bad-tempered uncle redbean, I can't be expected to know everything. I'm not The Pope ;-)
ReplyDeleteIf I were the driver, I would have got out of the car and smashed the living crap out of him, and bent his bike. We get plenty of these assholes in Australia -- in a cuntry with lots of cycle paths. But oh, no, these superheros in their expensive road racers MUST ride on the road, in a lane meant for motorised vehicles. And they are damn fucking arrogant. Meanwhile, the adjacent cycle lane is empty.
And gods help you if you langar one of them. You will kena traffic court AND civil court; and if the fucker dies, probably criminal court too. -- same old mentality: you drive a car, you are evil environmental rapist. If you ride a bike however, you are the saviour of the planet.
Anyway, I would have kicked his sorry ass then and there, postred the video on YT with a message: "If come here and fuck with me, I will send you home in a body bag."
For the next few weeks I would not be paying for any food, booze or taxi fares. Women will line up to blow me; probably a few men also ;). Children will hound me for my autograph. Her World and Tatler will want to interview me, maybe do a fashion spread too.
When my court date finally arrives, I would not even have to pay the lawyer for defense -- someone would pick up the tab, or the lawyer will defend me for free. Since I'm over 50 yrs old, no rotan for me :-) There's even a good chance I may be acquitted. Self defense. The video is clear: the man challenged me, then proceeded to my side of the vehicle. I responded in self defense:
1. There is no doubt to his intentions to assault me
2. He violated my personal space thus posing a clear threat.
How? Jealous of my impending/ imagined celebrity?
You dunno the fact and kept talking cock. The driver was a housewife, how to whack this bugger.
ReplyDeleteBy the way he is still cycling there and waiting for you. C'mon, show us your real stuff and what you can really do : )
redbean, fuck you and fuck both your houses -- past present and future with a dose of incurable disease up your arse.
ReplyDeleteOF COURSE I DON'T KNOW.. YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE -- which is why I'm asking for some guidance. Which is why I write cock, dumb motherfucker.
Fuck you lah!
Anyway, if you can't defend yourself, you won't be doing much when you're bullied lah. Just have to take it.
If he's still riding, why haven't the cops pulled him aside and questioned him over his threats -- clearly visible in a YouTube video.
I am no vigilante. Sorry, I dun involve myself with other peoples shit -- at least not for "free". All I'm saying is, if it happend to me, I will defend my own interests and I wouldn't give a shit bout the consequences.
OK, fuck you and fuck off!
Oh yes, we did sign an agreement with India which contained the clause attached below.
ReplyDeleteNote Paragraph 3 which is practically a blank cheque for any Indian company to open a branch or subsidiary in Singapore and start moving people here as Intra-corporate transferees.
You can read the agreement for yourself here :
https://docs.google.com/viewer?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.commerce.nic.in%2Fceca%2Fch9.pdf
Or Google “India Singapore CECA pdf”.
You will surely enjoy reading the chapters of movement of people.
Movement of Business Persons
Business visitors going into India for negotiating of deals, market exploration may apply for a multiple journey visa up to a validity period of 5 years provided the relevant terms and conditions apply. (Note: One criteria imposed is that applicable measures concerning the protection of public health and national security may limit the period of visa e.g. from 5 years to at most 2 years.)
Short term service suppliers who are going into India to provide a specific service (without a commercial presence) can stay for up to 90 days in single visa with possible extension for further 90 days.
Intra-corporate transferees refers to personnel from businesses operating in both countries and requires the transfer of personnel like managers, technical expertise between the two establishments. They can apply for a visa with validity period up to 2 years with possible extensions of up to 3 years at one time.
Professionals can also apply for a visa period of up to 1 year. The annex provides a list of 127 specific occupations.
All these provisions serve to increase the convenience of businesses and professionals without the hassle of going through the process of regular visa applications.
