Singaporeans becoming security guards

Have Singaporeans turned themselves into security guards? I don’t mean the security guards at the shopping centres or guarding housing estates but guarding the island? Our regular soldiers and NSmen are guarding the country with all its assets and reserves but the big question is for who? Have Singaporeans turned themselves into security guards, the only skill they are left with, and the good jobs are left to foreigners as Singaporeans no longer have the skill sets and talents to work in high positions, even to be political leaders? Have we reached such a hopeless state that Singaporeans are now guards to a rich island but have nothing to do with the wealth, except for some elites, that they can only look from the outside of the fence like guards usually do?

Just read the below comments from a reader in the blog.

‘For example, sinkies are put into pressure cookers from cradle to grave and guys have to sacrifice 2 precious years to serve national slavery ...... oops ...... national service ...... not mentioning life time yearly in camp trainings till 50, yearly IPPT tests and trainings, yearly ad hoc briefings, "suka suka weekends / public holidays mobilisation exercises " when u are celebrating your bd, having lunch/ dinner, looking after your new born etc?’

Is this the life of the average Singaporeans, whose main duty is to jaga the island day and night so that the foreigners can come here and get rich, take over the good jobs and may even take over the island? There are so many good stuff to guard and protect, but do the Singaporeans have a share of the good stuff and the good jobs when foreigners are even invited to be political leaders and CEOs of Singapore’s own institutions? Yes, yes, Singaporeans got no more talents. Without these foreign talents Singapore will go kaput. So no choice lah, better to be guards, still got jobs to do.

If Singapore doesn’t provide these foreigners with good jobs, they cannot provide jobs for Singaporeans.  Then Singaporeans want to be guards also cannot. Be grateful and guard the island well.

  1. Now you see Security High class guards in grey or bluish uniforms with liver coloured berets in MRT stations.

    Yesterday happened to have dinner with friend ar Seah Imm hawker centre.

    Four high class of them adjourned for diner fully armed.Wah steady poon pi pi. Out of four three had classes on. My God!!

    What happened if their specs fall in the melee? ?

    Everything in a blur??

    How's to tackle the terrorists??

    They only good to check fellow sinkies, old uncles and aunties.

    Those with cartoon drawings on their hands and legs.

    My gym friend endowed with some cartoon characters told me he was checked daily when taking MRT to gyms twice in and going out of the stations.

    Aiyo, see Bangkok security guards and Genting policeman.

    All looked like commandos.

    Sinkie land??

    Bay how kor!!

    If you can't even "guard" our sky from the poisonous/cancerous haze,
    what can you "guard" with our S$Billions investments?!

    Ha ha ha,

    Uncle RB, "great minds think alike"?

    Remember asked u a few weeks ago whether u welcome article contributions?

    And was hoping to contribute an article a month if the "creative juices" allowed ......

    Somehow, the inspirations to write a full article were not forthcoming but yet "bits and pieces" ( of inspiritions ) often came from reading your posts and some of the comments ......

    So the "contribution" ( monthly article ) came in the form of "comments" in some of your posts ...... as indirect ( monthly article ) contributions. .....

    Ha ha ha

    Hope so far your regular readers and new readers find some of the "indirect contributions" refreshing coming from the perspective of a post-independence sinkie growing up , educated first under our revered 1st PM the late LKY and the old guards such as GKS and TCC ( though many already retired or passed on by then...... ), shortly after under ( the forgettable ) Lao Goa and so on ......... LIFE after the switch from the 1st PM to 2nd was no more the same and the bond ( and human to human relationship ) between sinkie to sinkie and sinkie to sinkieland were getting diluted ( and polluted ) day by day .......

    Hopefully, your readers find the indirect contributions "interesting, informative and at times thought provoking" but all are written with "good intentions for the betterment of fellow sinkies and our motherland --- the one and only sinkieland ( read mythological UNICORN ) "

    PS Uncle RB, Thank you for "publishing" mind indirect "monthly article contributions" ...... they are mind little "contributions" ( hopefully they are and can some small parts ) to my fellow sinkies and motherland before Ai leave this place eventually. ..... Frankly, at times, the comments do take up a fair bit of time ( and "cost me to spend nights "banished" and sleeping in the LR sofa instead of the comfy double bed in the room" ....... ha ha ha )

  4. True, true. Now old sinkies after retirement or even pre-retirement ended up as Security Guards. Maybe not so lau quque as pushing trolley and collecting the used crockery from the hawker centres.

    This due to the moronic policy of the Imbecile government big heart in giving the plum jibs to the foreign refugees.

    My childhood friend, brightest among us neighbourhood kids. In SJI and up to HSC.ends up now as a Security Guard in a shopping mall.

    Ex HDB all rounder staff with vast experiences from maintenance to construction being phased out to be Security Guard.

    At one time even mentor to some PRC engineers here to learn the trade.

    Iron rice bowl broken whence posted to Town council. Change of MP goes your jobs.

    Still need monies to sustain living so become security guard.

    Still atas sakit rather than working in hawker centre.

  6. If we look down on security guard jobs, soon, security guards will be upgraded to 'security captains' like bus drivers. Then they will enjoy the same 'atas' status like gardeners who became 'landscape technicians', toilet cleaners who became 'healthcare...' don't know what lah but something 'atas'.

    They are very good in inventing fanciful titles like 'minister mentor', 'emeritus senior minister and fanciful welfare vote buying koyok like upgrading, workfare, skillsfuture using public money. In Thailand, ex PM Yingluck did the same with rice subsidies using public money and is in trouble. How come?

  10. In Sinkieland they have no big mountains and rivers leh, only tiny hills and longkangs. So, they have to invent all the big titles, names, words, rules, regulations, laws etc to confuse the 70% daft sinkies. Where in the world do they have GRCs, COEs, MM, ESM, Workfare, Skillsfutre etc. And not to mention bus captains. It is an insult to the plane captains and really lowers their 'atas-ness'.

      If one gigantic ( national iconic ) project with all the best experieneced talents cannot work properly together after having spent tens of billions, a "motley crew of disparate agencies newbie officers clobbered together with probably ZERO business and private sector experience" can contribute to the SMEs and "TRANSFORM" the industry?

  37. @ Virgo49:

    Here's a short version of a long story, because you have really misunderstood and wrongly characterised me:

    I've been my own boss for 20 years---ever since a whole lot of us were let go during the 1997 Asian financial crisis. I was then an expat in Singapore (I'm Singaporean BTW)...managed to CONvince the global firm that I was worth hiring as a "foreigner". Got a nice 1700 sq ft apartment in Ardmore Park, at night Orchard Towers regular drunken horny guy, yearly bonus + airfare home... that sort of thing, debauched expat lifestyle.

    Since I am Singaporean, I could use my CPF to buy HDB...which I did, very cheap after broke motherfuckers were dying after the 1997 crisis. I have no problem "profiteering" from people's hardship. I think that's why the mat saleh firm hired me: I'm known to be quite a ruthless bastard, and I get results. The retrenchment package was sweet. I didn't work for 2 years back in Oz. I moved into the back of my mother's place (save living expenses), smoked lots of weed, drank dangerous amounts of booze and banged lots of chicks. 😈

    When things settled down in Asia, I snared American and Brit clients in Thailand---I "stole" them from my ex-employer...the motherfuckers who fired me---and that lasted 11 years until the stupid Red Shirt vs Yellow Shirt shit got too hot, and many expats shutdown and left.

    So now I conduct my enterprise in Singapore. The majority of my clients are PRC and Indian. The cheebyes really make you work for your money! Not like the 1990's when people were throwing it all over the place, all you had to do was pick up a few "crumbs" here and there, and you could afford a 3-series BMW (the cheapest one).

    I live in Australia (39 years this year) because I like it. I can own guns, I can drive a nice car for 1/3 the cost of Singapore, I eat well, I get restful sleep, and I LOVE the outdoors. I re-apply for my PR visa every 5 years, and pay exorbitant taxes to support the bums and abos, and the corporate cronies of the government. I'm like a "tourist-beach bum" here, and every 6 weeks or so, I'm in Hotel Singapore...working for money, like most of you fuckers. 😂😂

    I've lost my job so many times already lah. I started working here straight after NS ROD in jobs most Singaporeans today won't do....manual labour, fucking hot and dirty Asian restaurants for chow cheebye stingy Asian bosses, illegal gambling clubs (I worked for the Greek "mafia" for awhile). Later I got a real estate agent's license, and then job-hopped my way into corporate life.

    This is why I give NO QUARTER to those cry baby losers who are so mollycoddled they cannot tahan even a little bit of "hardship". They haven't failed enough. They have never been punched to the ground, they have not lost lots of money, they've never been hungry or broke or worse...in crippling debt, they've never experienced "in your face" RACISM, they've never been cheated....and they've probably never been taken to the cleaners by 2 ex-wives---demon bitches from hell.

    So fuck them. If they think I have "no compassion", that's up to them. At 60 years of age, I don't care about their shitty, shallow lives. I have the best of both worlds, and I intend to milk it for as long as I can. Beach-bum Australia, to Hotel Singapore. 😎

    "When life hands you lemons, order lobster". Stay happy motherfuckers, if you can...😂

  40. Not any Arthur ah Kow can have the privilege to guard the country .Be proud of yourselves if you are being call up or given privilege to guard the country.
    Only failures or losers will complain .
    Wonder how our Laocheks like Virgo,Patriot or RB etc can now klkk with so many grandchildren?
    This is because of their past sacrifices contributing to NS.Because of their contribution,many can safely produce generations of Sinkies.
    Guard country or condominiums are the same.We cannot see the benefits but it is a fact that many can sleep peacefully.
    As for FTs,they are here to create jobs .Without them ,many law enforcers ,healthcare staff,court clerks etc will lost their jobs.
    Thank our Garmen for allowing us to play our part guarding my country .

  41. Budget Debate 2016
    Source: CNA

    //Efficacy and accountability in government spending emerged as a key area of concern on Monday (Apr 4), the first day of the two week-long Budget and Committee of Supply debates in Parliament.

    METRICS TO TRACK SPENDING

    MP Foo Mee Har (West Coast GRC), for example, wanted to know what measures are in place to track Key Performance Indicators and outcomes on big-ticket investments such as the Industry Transformation Programme and SkillsFuture.

    “This is to ensure that these multi-year schemes achieve policy intent and deliver the expected outcome, namely the boost that’s needed to our capabilities and competitiveness," she said. "What lessons have we learnt from our experience of years past, where well-intentioned productivity schemes, costing billions of dollars, ultimately failed to lift productivity levels?” //

    1. MP Foo really lives up to her past experience and private sector stringent KPIs standard when it comes to spending huge amount of taxpayers $$$ ......?

      Going forward, this SAMPAN 2.0 "may not have that much room to fail anymore with BIG SPENDINGS programmes" .......?

      No more "business as usual ( and failures as usual )?

  43. @ "doubting Thomases" Beleive me or don't. I don't care. But I'm on a roll writing, and am going to add these "experiences" to a book I might start writing next year👍🏽👍🏽 So...to clarify earlier points made to Virgo49:


    1. I born 1956, Upper Serangoon (Hougang)

    2. I got my PR in 1977 while still in NS. Took annual leave, flew over, got passport stamped, fucked around for 2 weeks blowing all my money, then flew back. That time AUD : SGD == ~3 : 1. In those days, you could do shit like that. Used to be so many loopholes with the PR Visa---I've exploited them all. Now all the loopholes closed.

    I ROD'd LATE in '80/'81, when most of my batch were done with their NS by mid '78. Repeated HSC (lazy delinquent fuck I was) and then disrupted service again to start university. I completed NS during term breaks. I had to; my dad (not rich) had to put down alot of money to secure my disruption.

    3. Before getting into real estate, I was doing shitty jobs and studying (struggling) in university, very broke and unhappy. I was trained at/by REIWA. The license in those days was awarded by the State Government. No "council" set up yet. I was a shit-kicker for about a year...selling crap to "first home buyers" aka "broke motherfuckers" all getting into homes with their $7000 Govt Housing Grant they apply to the govt (i.e. BEG) for. Way to go entitlement mentality! 😱

    After running around like a dumb blur-cock newbie and not making much money---kena "pluck" by my boss and other agents I had to share deals with...I left and joined [name omitted] who was selling Aussie property in Singapore.

    Since I am Singaporean, I managed to wrangle a 6 month stint with their partner firm [name omitted] located in a nice high office in Shenton Way, Singapore. Made some money, no big deal. Shared office cubicle with a chio bu 😍 local Chinese gal. Tried to bang her, unsuccessfully. Out of my league. Way, way out. Her remiser boyfriend drove a Lotus. Me? I took taxi and bus. 😂 As my dad used to remind me: "You lose nothing by trying!"

    4. Later on, back in Oz, I joined the more established [name omitted] who ran large Aussie property exhibitions in Singapore. Dumb Singaporeans would queue up, cheque-books in hand, salivating to buy "overseas property" like hum sup uncles in a fish-tank brothel. "Investors" were promised outrageous capital gains and 6-8% (rent income) "guaranteed" for 2 years in new units (1 year old), already tenanted.

    What the "investors" didn't realise was that the agency tacked on the 2 years rent into the selling price (all done legally...just barely). The Singaporeans were essentially getting their own money back over 2 years. The agency also hatam the Singaporeans for property management and strata fees. This was very profitable. I made shit loads of money over many "exhibition" trips.

    Being the only Singaporean on the team, I was the GSO for the rest of the male agents. A typical "outing" would begin at the hotel bar or drinking up our duty free, then it was off to the gentlemen's "spa" at Badminton Stadium at Guillemard Road. Hot and cold pool, steam, massage, eat free makan. Then cross the road and walk to Geylang Lorong Even-Number.😂.

    After all said and done, and done again and again (horny young mat salehs banging drop-dead gorgeous Malaysian gals), we'd cross Guillemard Rd again and make our way to Fatty Weng's for the famous zi char. (This is what I'm good at: GUANXI)

  44. Those above 60s are survivals, grew up at a time when things were not so tidy and structured. Anything goes. Many started life from nothing, from scratch and make the best out of it.
