CECA Indians in Singapore - Dumbfounded

Restrictions on Indian IT professionals moving to Singapore; Wrong to have total free flow of people: DPM Tharman

It's not just wrong politics but also wrong economics, DPM says at a forum in New Delhi
By Nirmala Ganapathy, India Bureau Chief In New Delhi, The Sunday Times, 23 Jul 2017

Singapore has been one of the strongest advocates when it comes to the free flow of goods and services, but there must be limits to the movement of people.

Otherwise there will be less push for businesses to be more productive, and "more fundamentally, you become a society where people don't feel it's their own society", said Deputy Prime Minister Tharman Shanmugaratnam yesterday at an economics forum in India.

"This is a reality not just because of (President Donald) Trump in the US or Brexit in UK. It is a reality all over the world,'' he said when asked a question about tighter restrictions on Indian professionals moving to Singapore.

Noting that a third of Singapore's workforce is already made up of foreigners, he added: "It would be mindless to have an open border without any policy framework to govern and constrain the flow of people into your job market. It will not just be wrong politics but wrong economics."...



"You have an education system that does not prepare people for the needs of modern economy, and employment legislation which is, in effect, anti-employment. And it's now a race against technology, which we all face," he said.

"The window of opportunity for labour-intensive activities is narrowing. I would say if India doesn't make urgent and major changes in the next 10 years, there is a real problem on our hands," he added.

The first point to note in the above article is that Tharman could see the danger of too many CECA Indians coming to Singapore and the adverse consequences on Singaporeans. But not many idiots can see this and still wanting more CECA Indians and foreigners to come in to replace Singaporeans.  And daft Singaporeans voted these idiots to power to destroy their ricebowls, to make them jobless and into financial hardship to themselves and their family members.  How stupid can Singaporeans be? They deserve to suffer more with the new govt for the next 5 years when they bring in more CECA Indians and foreigners to make them jobless.

The second point is Tharman's comment that the Indian education system was not preparing the Indians to meet the needs of a modern economy. How is it that the idiots in this island look at the CECA Indians as talents or gods that we needed to replace our PMETS?  Maybe ours is not a modern economy. So village gangsters are regarded as talents and our city folks are idiots, unemployable and should be replaced by village gangsters.

Not being dismissive about Indian being a third world country or a dysfunctional country, is the Indian education system better than ours? If yes, we should send our students to India. If not, why are we employing their graduates to replace our graduates? There are some that are very good, and this applies to every education system and every country. But when plane loads of rubbish are brought here and treated as gold, then something is seriously wrong, not the CECA Indians, but with our idiots salivating for them instead of our PMETs.

Agree?  Who are the siao ting tongs?

    1. Hi Anon

      Think slip of the Tong-gue. Indian language Tong- gay. So real intention of the Singapore Leaderships or Agenda is to have the Southern Indians kept their free flowing movements into Singapore.

      Kena balls stuck into wooden horses by their long term agreement of the CECA.

      Sacred kena sued and kept their reputation of keeping to their lop sided agreement which they cannnot recscind now.

      Why TarMan can publicly said this in New Delhi and NO GUTs to critise or stop his PM and his idiots from telling them aloud?

      Like the First Generation Pioneer Leaders who dared defiled their Emperor!

      Leaders like GKS, HSS and LKS etc?
      Is he doing some damage control trying to tell that Modi that we had made a blunder in honouring the CECA? Appealing them to at least slow down and tried to keep their own in their own country by evelating their educational system?

      Why openly in India and also in their forum and company?

      So Real problem in Singapore's hand is his slip of the tongue that told the Real Fatal Blunder of that CECA that they had signed.

  2. Singapore ruling party self-interests, selfishness, self-aggrandizement and short sightedness in political expediency to import new trash citizens to maintain and sustain its continuous hold on power is eventually committing national suicide at the expense of blue Singapore citizens. This insane policy of unlimited immigration of trash from India must be terminated immediately if we Singaporeans do not want to have the pain and agony of facing riots and turmoil from these new immigrants in the not too distant future.

    Concern blue Singaporean

    Tharman can feel this, can the other leeders feel that this is not right when Sinkies cannot feel that this is their country any more?

  8. COVID-19 PANDEMIC IN SINGAPORE - IS THE NUMBER OF NEW CASES LINKED TO THE NUMBER OF TESTS PROCESSED EACH DAY?

    On Wednesday, the Ministry of Health (MOH) has confirmed another 249 new cases of Covid-19 infections that took place in the previous24 hours. This number includes 5 imported infections, 15 community infections, and 229 foreign workers infections inside various cramped-up and unhygienic labour-camp-like dormitories.

    The five imported cases include one Singaporean and four foreigners. The Singaporean is a 28-year-old woman (new citizen?) who returned from India on July 3.

    Just before the General Elections (GE), the number of new infections went down drastically. After the General Elections, in the last few days, the number of new infections rose up again exponentially. Why is it like that one?

    Are the coronavirues so accommodating that they gave us a break just before the GE? Or, is it a mere magical illusion happening in front of our easily-deceived eyes.

    More seriously, is the number of new infections announced linked to the capability
    and capacity of the various test laboratories?

    In other words, is the number of new confirmed cases the results of the number of tests being processed by the various laboratories each day?

    Never mind how many tests have been taken per day. It is the capability and capacity of each laboratory to run through and complete the testing that counts. Technicians can fall sick and technicians go on leave to take a rest. Equipments and machines can breakdown. Mistakes may happen, etc. All these must be taken into consideration.

    So, my perception is that the announcement of how many new cases per day may not truly reflect the real situation on the ground as each day passes. Therefore, if authorities are using that as a yardstick to measure the performance or competency of the COVID-19 Multi-Ministry Task Force, then they may have to think again.

  9. Tharman should resign if he does not support PAP-LHL's CECA policies.

    He should not be a hypocrite and stay on as a minister in a pro-CECA Indian government.

  10. Can you believe it, we need Tharman to protect us from the harm caused by CECA Indians brought in by you know who!

  11. INDIA-SINGAPORE COMPREHENSIVE ECONOMIC COOPERATION AGREEMENT

    This Agreement shall enter into force on 1 August 2005.

    Either Party may terminate this Agreement by giving the other Party six months' advance notice in writing.

Such consultations shall commence within 30 days of a Party’s delivery of such request.

  12. With this clause to terminate, why is the clown asking what Singapore must give in return for all the shits coming to our shores when Singapore can just terminate the agreement if we are not happy with it or grew smart of it? Did the clown consult our super legal talents, the best in the world on this?

  13. Why the PAP Government continues with CECA when it can just terminate it by giving India six months advance notice?

    Why continues to let Singaporeans suffer?

    Even if it is only one Singaporean who is suffering as a result of the stupidly signed CECA, it is one too many. There should be no one suffering from such an agreement that is supposed to benefit, not deprived and depraved.

    Any government's primary responsibility is first to protect its own citizens, not a foreign power.

    Protecting or promoting the interests of a foreign power against the interests of own citizens is tantamount to treason.

  14. To terminate means to confirm a mistake has been made. Since as super talents they can never make a mistake so therefore no reason to terminate

  15. Committing treason is a greater mistake that is unpardonable.

  19. Why are there so many excuses to intentionally prolong the unfair, unjust, unequal. incomprehensible, and uncooperative Comprehensive Economic Cooperation Agreement?

    Were there some hidden, unwritten, sideline, secret agreements that have not been made known to the public? Is there a separate Annex only known to the highest authority of both countries?

    Does anyone know something that happened behind the scene that the public cannot be privy to?

    With RCEP (Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership) in existence, Singapore do not need to rely upon India so pathetically and precariously any more. Simply terminate the present CECA and then renegotiate with India on equal, fair and just terms.

    Free trade must be also FAIR Trade in order to be really Free. If one side is taking advantage over another unfairly, then it is not FAIR. If it is not FAIR, then it is not FREE Trade. Therefore, the agreement is null and void.

  20. There were two idiots that were coveting and salivating on how big is the Indian market and how undeveloped it is and these are great opportunities for Singapore to move in to make money,... only to be screwed by the Indians but dare not utter a word. The Indians are smarter than these two silly kayu, took advantage of their naiveity and then told them to go fly kite.

    Now both are gone.

    Good riddance.

  22. Wooden Head who wears tailor-made in India Indian Costume and the pretentious God-Fearing Georgian Boy who initiated and created the Casino Gambling Dens under the guise of the high sounding Integrated Resorts, that cause countless and endless sufferings and broken homes of Singaporeans.

    Obviously, the two of them have benefited in one way or another.

  23. The question is those two are gone but why the present Emperor who wears no clothes does not want to terminate it? Why?

  25. Those who pay themselves by the $millions do not understand those who are paid by the $thousands. They say they deserve what they pay themselves. Indirectly, they also mean to tell you that you deserve what you get too, $thousands.
    Also, it means you deserve the government you voted for. You elected them to run you life to their fullest advantage, running you to the ground. So be it. YOU DESERVE IT!
