Below is an extract of an article posted by a taxi uncle in TRE. If daft
Sinkies still want to remain daft their fate will be no better than
this taxi uncle. Look around the local banks and financial institutions
and find out how many ‘chapalan’ university graduates from God knows
where are employed, even in top management positions.
The next GE is likely to be the last chance for daft Sinkies to change
their fate for the better. If they still blindly cast their votes
against their interests, more foreigners, from ‘chapalan’ universities
and fakes will come in to take over their jobs. And no, they will not
become taxi drivers or security guards. Those are luxurious jobs compare
to the alternative. In one or two generations they will end up as
dalits. So will their children if they did not stop this foreign
madness. The bright Sinkies will end up like daft and got not proper
jobs while all the shitty foreigners will be employed in good jobs that
rightfully should be going to the citizens.
As an ex HR practitioner, I make it a point to scrutinise the
qualifications of the top management staff of GLCs and it is very
shocking from what I have seen. Yes many came from ‘chapalan’
universities that are unheard of, would not be recognised by the PSC,
and compared to Curtin, my goodness, I cannot believe those people could
be better than Curtin graduates. I have known of kids whose academic
results were all red but came back with straight As as graduates from
‘chapalan’ universities.
All I can say is good luck when you cast your vote in the next GE.
Please read the full article in TRE. You will be like this taxi uncle in
a matter of time when you are past 40, if you are young and employed
today. The smug IBs are thinking that their fate will be different. Just
you wait. The retribution will hit you sooner than you think. If you
cannot empathise with the fate of taxi uncle, no one will cry for you
when your turn comes. Think for your children and what kind of life they will be leading, what kind of jobs they will be doing.
Below is the letter.
‘When I went abroad to study in 1990. I
had to go to the British Council to check whether my university I
applied for (Curtin University in Perth) was an accredited one with the
Commonwealth Accreditation System.
After graduation, I tried applying for any kind of finance or Banking
job but couldn’t even get a single interview. My NS colleague was the HR
Mgr in a foreign bank and saw my job application. He privately told me
in confidence then in the job interview that my Curtin degree was not
that “recognised” and that was why I couldn’t get any banking job
whatsoever.
What an irony. Nowadays I think u got any college or diploma
qualifications from any rotten universities, whether genuine or dubious
or not, from India, Philippines, Myanmar, Vietnam or Timbuktu also now
suddenly “recognised”.
As long u are foreign, any employer, Bank or MNC will take you and MOM
will approve or EP or SP within 3 days. Also, its got nothing to do with
age. My pinoy friend with college qualifications as me is also above 50
and had his SP approved within 3 days. He has a desk job paying him
well over $3K.
For me, I could even get a look-in applying for 1.5k salary jobs, even
as a theme park operator or car park valet with MBS and RWS. In the end,
only available jobs for me is to drive taxi or work as security guard.’ By taxi uncle.

I happen to know personally many of my friends and colleagues who share the same fate as Curtin Taxi driver. When I count the actual number of people who I know personally who have had both their opportunity for dignified employment and standard of living diminished by lousy policies....it is quite frightening.
I say it is frightening bc the MSM certainly doesn't seem to want to write about this problem.....they are all silent.
Neither do pro PAP Potemkin village sites such as Singaporedaily and five stars and the moon write about this problem either. They are even more silent than the MSM by their constant assurance all is well in paradise.
And it's even more frightening....as not even the worlds most highly paid bureaucrats seem to want to write about this problem either. They all believe the party will never end....they even believe, the best is yet to come.
But if these are all true, then why are so many middle aged PMET's driving taxi's?
I don't understand....I genuinely want to understand.
There are times when I ask myself whether - it is real. Did I imagine so many of my friends and colleagues turning into insurance agents, security guards and taxi drivers....is it real?
Can someone please tell me.
Thank you

It already happened in 2011, when times and the PAP were worse for these PMETs.
Yet 60% still voted PAP in GE 2011 !!
So were middle aged PMET's driving taxi voters a minority in 2011?
And are they still a minority or much lesser now, since PAP has improved a bit (don't u agree?) since 2011?
Unless you are doing hard sciences, medicine and law, most uni degrees these days are close to complete bullshit -- an on-line course will give you everything you need to bullshit your way to the top as a WAGE SLAVE, bearing in mind that you will be in competition with similarly edu-ma-cated WAGE SLAVES from "cheaper cuntrees".
You motherfuckers have a difficult time accepting REALITY. However I won't be the one to tell you to wake the fuck up and smell the kopi...please enjoy your slumber, delusion and superb theatrical role as "The Victim". :-)
A uni degree is fast becoming "not such a big deal". What employers are looking for are SKILLS at the BEST PRICE.
Sweet dreams!
Well, a lot of those good-life aunties vote for them, not those like us who frequent this blog.
Singapore's political system is broken! Just imagine how in the hell can we voted in for someone to be the President, who abused his position and exploited loopholes to get his son exempt from military service, making a mockery to all those law-obeying males ?
I have no faith at all in Singapore political system!
A degree is nothing? It depends on who you are, where you are from and which 3rd world country you get the degree from.
Curtin from Australia, and many universities in Australia and from the two top local universities here are as good as waste papers.
Sad Sad Sad
It is really very sad to hear about these stories.
Why do we ended up like that?
Why why why?

Why? Because the alternative to PAP is not even ready to be govt, let alone do a better job as govt!
Hence majority (aka 60%) are not ready to replace the PAP with the alternative as govt.
It's that simple.
Moral of story is to tell one not to be too honest.I should have bought some papers years back from chapalang university and i should be able to do something today.Maybe oso million dollar salary.
But what is so bad about driving taxi and becoming screwty guard huh?
Dun listen to those losers there in tr who only know how to kpkb but offer no solution.
Listen to those shallow and simple minded losers will only do more harm.
That blog that says it represent voices of Singaporean should be taken down.Change to voices of failures.
This morning I was at the Cold Storage in Westmall at Bukit Batok to look for cheap wine.A bottle of merlot placed in the special offer lot priced at $22.When I went to the cashier to check out, I was to that this bottle was priced at $70+
When I asked to see the manager, A Brian appeared. He was clearly a Pinoy from the way he look, he talked and the affected mannerism of a superior caucasian.
Why was such a comfortable job not offered to many of the Sinkie PMET uncles now forced to drive taxi for a living?
Hi RB, speed. I wonder how this taxi uncle or any of the other Singaporean taxi uncles in this similar situation voted in the 2011 GE. What goes round comes around. To all Singaporeans - Cast your vote wisely in the next GE. Your rice bowl may be the next in line to be broken.
After CECA now they are going unload Indian nurses here with MRAs. Who approved this swap deal?
Hi matilah, many singaporeans science graduates were also been assigned to wash test tubes in research labs as honed by philip tan.
See previous A Star full page adverts of scholars as recruited by them. Nearly 90 percent PRC faces.
Many of our graduates out ftom NUS and NTU
and some even were in the pioneer batch of research staff.
They are been replaced by these so called foreign talents of ah nehs and ah Tiongs snd whites.
So graduating in hard sciences in sinkie land no guarantee that they will secure jobs.
How many true blue Singaporeans in research labs now?? How many billions in longkangs after so many years.??
My daughter pioneer batch in early 2000s in A Star and NUS labs now happier as Sports instructor with Sports Science degree rather than hard Sciences degrees.
In Singapore, strict criteria to be in Science courses and yet they took in dubious talents from these kindergarten unis.
Think they also spend 26k each to tutor these PRC brillant scholars in the English Language.
See how they interview the NUS-Duke Uni professor with fake degree with out even realising that they are been duped.
Have you wonder if the interviewers also got fake degrees?
@virgo:
I won't say much about A * because I occasionally work with them/ their people. I dun get involved in the politics over there -- to me it's just another fee as a private outside contractor. No big deal. I don't have to love my clients, but I do have to deliver on whatever I'm contracted to do.
However I will say this: dun feel bad about this alleged "foreign" bias over there: Why the fuck would anyone want to work with/ for that a-hole boss anyway? There is PLENTY of science work in the private sector -- the REAL private sector not a fake govt "privatised" behemoth.
Granted most scientists are not entrepreneurs. However many of those who have tried have succeeded quite nicely.
These days if yu don't want to be at mercy of some dickhead employer who uses jobs to "leverage" people, then learn tHEN APPLY the skill set of the entrepreneur: i.e. you have to TAKE ACTION.
I would say many of the highly skilled locals who are employed "below" their level of academic achiement are simply not networked enough -- i.e. meeting people, engaging with them,
Who you know, and the extent that you are willing to "work the network" is a better predictor of "success" than just going to university and getting a degree.
The fake degree holders get where they are by being BOLD and AUDACIOUS. Sure some of them get caught, but it is reasonable to expect that some of them will "succeed".
Life is not fair. And we do not live in a "just universe". (aka "there is no such thing as karma)
" You will be like this taxi uncle in a matter of time when you are past 40, "
- I agree. Its a matter of time. The people should all gang up and set up a website showing all establishments own by or employed a lot of foreigners and boycott all of them. Unity is the only power against rogue government.
I haven’t known this before, you really have a way to go! May I ask if you know already chapalang philippines ?
Nice going! I guest you are expert on this, try to check chapalang philippines you must see it!
