- Last
month, the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) suddenly woke up and quickly made
a public announcement that it has "discovered" 47 companies with
suspected discriminatory hiring practices have been placed on its Fair
Consideration Framework (FCF) Watch list. (As a pass-time bird-watching
hobby?)
This is on top of the 1,000 firms in the watchlist as announced by Manpower Minister Josephine Teo in Parliament earlier this year – an increase of about 400 more firms compared to last year's watchlist. (Which means the watching alone is not effective. It does not mean anything to the culprits. They simply don't give a damn!)
The announcement came after the recent Pandemic General Election which saw the PAP lose another GRC and perform worse than expected.
Of the 47 companies, 30 (64 per cent) are in the financial and professional services sectors. They include banks, fund management firms, management consulting companies, as well as firms that provide project management and engineering services.
MOM said that all 30 of the financial and professional services employers have a “high concentration of PMETs from single nationalities”. In simple layman's words, ONE COUNTRY.
(We can confidently assume that that One Country is INDIA, because MOM is terrified to reveal it to us.)
In one financial institution in the fund management industry, almost 75% of their PMETs are of the same nationality and in another bank, almost 66% of the PMETs are also of the same nationality, MOM revealed.
“We will subject their hiring to closer scrutiny to ensure that there is no nationality bias against locals, which is unacceptable and not in line with fair, merit-based hiring,” said MOM.
How do you ensure just by "closer scrutiny"? It's like 66-75% of your territory has already been invaded by enemy forces and you suddenly discovered it, and then as the commander tasked to defend the territory, you shouted at the enemy forces, "Hey! I am going to take a closer look at you, to ensure that you don't invade my territory!" What a brilliant commander!
Even though MOM did not name the companies or the nationalities involved, most netizens pointed to Indian nationals. Why? Because we can see, feel and smell them crowding everywhere, especially at Changi Business Park and the Financial Centre at Shenton Way. Simple as that.
Only those comfortably sleeping inside ivory towers cannot feel and cannot see the real situation on the ground.

Solution:
To ensure that the various companies abide by MOM"s guidelines, regulations, rules, directives and decrees, the following actions (not observations) should be taken:
1. Impose heavy penalties even for first offence.
2. Charge them in Court and send the CEO to serve jail terns.
3. Terminate their licence and ban them from operating in Singapore.
4. Reserve all CEOs and Human Resource Directors or Managers for Singapore-born Citizens only. New citizens or PRs holding such posts must be approved by MOM and issue with a revocable permit to hold such posts.
5. All government agencies, organs of state and MAS, GIC, GLCs and Temasek Holdings and its subsidiaries must also comply. They serve as good examples to lead the rest. If they can vagrantly flout the rules, so can others. Then MOM will have no moral standing to exert compliance.Queen of Hearts

Throughout history, traitors would self rationalise their traitorous acts as good for the country. They would not want to see how they betrayed their people and country by the harmful acts they committed.
ReplyDeleteA Bunch Of Weak And Soul-less Minions Running The Country
ReplyDeleteA sickly-lookin and weak leader can only select loyal but weak minions to help him run the country. All these minions are there to serve only their paymaster, nobody else.
The paymaster calls the shots. No matter right or wrong shots, accurate of way-out shots, ethical or unethical shots, moral or immoral shots, legal or illegal shots, constitutional or unconstitutional shorts, humanly or inhumanly, the weak and soul-less minions will simply carry out the pay-and-pay master's calls like zombies.
They are all in it for the $million pay and even more $million bonuses, plus an ensured, guaranteed comfortable retirement for serving two terms of four years each.
They have sold their dignity, integrity and soul to the highest bidder, who uses taxpayers' money to buy loyalty and votes.
How then can a bunch of weak and soul-less minions be able to function for the collective interests of the citizens?
On top of all that, there is an Empress Dowager controlling the purse (economy) and the strings (indirect, soft and willful power) behind the curtains.
How not the country goes disarray and its Citizens suffer?
SSO BRO, U be careful on your comment lar. If u crosed the line to be more explicit, u know lar. Unless u have strong ass, better be careful lar
ReplyDeletePeople's Action Party (PAP) better rename to People Observing Party (POP).
ReplyDeleteMOH every time say, "We will closely monitor".
Multi-Ministry and Multi-Agency Committees are also very found of saying, "We will closely monitor".
PM and Deputy PM also said, "We will continue to monitor closely."
MTI Minister of Kee Chiu, Cotton from Sheep, Xia Shuay Fame, Ah Chan also imitate his Master to say,
"We will monitor closely."
And MOM small-space small-heart Joe says,
"We put them under our Watch List."
Don't need to take action, just monitor, observe and watch closely. At the end of month, "Pay correct, Sir." At the end of year, "Thank you for your huge Bonus, Sir." And laughing all the way to their banks everyday. KNN.
Like that, from now on, PAP shall be referred to as POP.
10.01am anon, u very humorous leh

ReplyDeleteKNN, as long as you don't mention names, whoever fits the hat put it on.
If you fit the hat, and put it onto yourself, then you are admitting what that have been commented fit you nicely, That means what have been said are true.
Everything is being recorded and the neutral historians tomorrow will have a field day writing about the villians of today and etch their crimes onto stones for posterity. Unfortunately the posterity in Singapore would not be the original Singaporeans but descendants of new Singaporeans.
ReplyDeleteThe happiest people in Singapore today are the foreigners, all looking to a brighter future.
ReplyDeleteCan't say that of the jobless Singaporeans or Singaporean security guards, grab drivers and food delivery men and women.
The elites may also think their tomorrow will be just as good as today. Unfortunately the fate of their tomorrow would be the same as the PMETs today, when the foreigners took control of the island.

ReplyDeletehas been sleeping all the Time ?
And
it is a Ministry ?
Charge the Offender ?
ReplyDeletelt should had been done the Moment anyone is found to breach the Rule and Regulation, why was it not done ?
MOM should be charged for failing in its duty. And the Minister Incharged should be inquired for the Failure to act on the Breach of Regulation.
No ??
Wah lau eh, breaking Singapore laws, discriminate against Singaporeans, sacking Singaporeans to replace them with foreigners and the garment cannot find anything wrong with them!
ReplyDeleteAre these foreign companies above the law?
Are they protected by CECA?
that why so many sinkies left and went to other country.
ReplyDeleteThe Old Guards built Singapore with the Pioneers so that it can be destroyed by one of their sons. Irony of irony.
ReplyDeleteI voted Opposition to protect Singaporeans from the cancer stricken Chinese Aboo-neneh.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it too late to know! Despite all the tight ship keeping this has still been allowed to happen.
ReplyDeleteWhat is the point of being aware now that jobs have already been given to foreigners because of those discriminating policies practiced by many companies.
Surely all these cannot now be reversed retrospectively, and all the wayang that are being staged are just to pacify the feeling of unjust by those whose jobs have either been given to foreigners or who have faced discrimination in their job search.
Wow, it has been happenning for over two decades with four general elections within those times and with the Voters supporting the policies by giving the PAP Mandate in every general election and now a small group of under forty percent making noise.
ReplyDeleteAre the less than forty percent folks taking the over sixty percent as moron ?
The PAP is the architect of the immigration and labour policies which have resulted in the present sorry state of employment for citizens. To expect the PAP to take action to undo the damage is futile and is akin to expecting an arsonist to put out the fire he had started. The only viable solution is to send them packing and replace them with a government who has the interest of and works for our country and our citizens.
ReplyDeleteBig rumor is that rife there is great anxiety with PAP-PA-paid IBs as to what the narrative is to bring to the 61% sheeples in order to make them stupid again.
ReplyDeleteThis is due to indecision of PA's higher echelon. Seems like there are 2 different camps. The first camp is army camp, that says "Throw Lie ML into the guters and let him face the 61% sheeples' anger." The second camp is from get-rich-quick rub-shoulders greedy pigs camp, that says "Leave no clan members behind and so allow Liew to lieu scot free come what may."
First camp is very uncomfortable with the honest-mistake strategy of second camp, even though it is purportedly in the mind of the current AG that is supposed to oversee the current Lie ML saga but AG very clever cover own ass, recused himself and asked DAG to do it.
First camp is very uncomfortable because such mind-twisting language abuse strategy cannot be used for low-rung non-scholar clan members. It is only reserved for the likes of PAPA Goh cock tongue PAPA KFC Tony and the PAPA Clown Prince.
Second camp says, "If the “”" it is an honest mistake let’s move on “”" strategy is not used, for sure clan member Lie mum liong must spend 2 years and 2 months in PAPA Changi Prison to eat free food. Like that how?
First camp says, "Lie lied to our police, lied to our courts, and lied to AGC, how to cover up for him? Somemore, he very miser. Pay maid $10 to do extra illegal works for 2-3 days many times at son's house and son's office. KNN, so very cheap skate. Sure maid not happy lah. His bank account at least $900 million already, yet he so stingy. .... So, xia shuay, really."
we are NOT PAPA supporters. rather, we support truth, we support true government.
so we say, let true justice run.
lie ah leong has lied. lie ah leong is a liar. worse, lie ah leong did not lie to us 39% and 61% voters only, he also lied to PAP Judge, lied to PAP AGC, lied to PAP Shanmugam's best Police force on Earth. Police and Judiciary got no more face, man. How can?
Fair must be FAIR this time. Cannot fair is foul, foul is fair for the miser and his son.
If he dared to deliberately lied to AGC, Police and Judge over four years long time, then he must have been lying all these past years, so good in lying until you all also don't know. Kena bluff by Lie Ah Leong for past 50 years also don't know. Still say publicly that he contributed to this and that to Singapore. The fact is he must also have contributed many lies, until you all don't know.
Let Justice takes its course. All hands off. No obstructions, please.
2 years and 2 months was meted out to the poor victim suffered for four years, from 2016 to 2020 for nothing, no faults of hers. Some more banned from working to earn a living and support her poor mother for four long agonising years.
The same 2 years and 2 months must be meted out to miser Lie Ah Leong and his lousy master-planner son. Period.
First and foremost, Indonesia is watching how the Singapore Government is dealing with the case. You do not mess with the Indons.
ReplyDeleteSecond, my feel is that even if Mr Miser gets a jail term of any length, it will be reduced like Kong Hee Fatt Chye upon appeal, because he has the money, the connections and the establishment behind him.
The rich can get away with murder is no idle boast! Go figure!
