'Moving forward it will be seem that (should read, seen. excuse the grammar and typos in the original comment) True Born Singaporeans who forefathers help to build the nation will be deprived of more opportunities than the new citizens. The new citizens will gain wealth and have better status and enjoy better qualities of lives than those true born Singaporeans. In fact is so obvious now that new citizens are living better as compared to true born Singaporeans. Even the new citizens’ ageing parents are better off than the local aged who are still working.'
Above is a comment to an article in TOC by Singapore academics saying 'the government is practising “protectionism”.' This comment may seem very mundane, nothing sophisticated or high brow, but it touches the very basic meaning of what a country is all about before it becomes a cuntry. And this second part is best, though crudely put by another commentator.
'What protectionism are these jokers talking about?
Singapore is like one fucking big cb, always 24/7, 7-eleven open to all to wank.
If even sg trained foreign free riding students have difficulties finding jobs and competing against the ceca imports, then it shows something is wrong with our tertiary education system.
Meaning Tan and Walter should shut up their cb mouths, stop giving pap BJs and start thinking how to improve their teaching.'
The above two comments are the latest manifestation of pain and hurt in Singaporeans being marginalised in their own country by govt policies that blindly professed about how good and important foreign talents are and bringing them in mindlessly, recklessly and irresponsibly without a care about how badly Singaporeans are affected by these foreigners stealing their jobs. But some twits would say, no, the foreigners are not replacing or stealing the jobs of Singaporeans and demanding proof for it.
The insensitivity and callousness of policy makers are unbelieveable. Call them stupid they are not happy. Say they are smart, they are not. Basically a bunch of imbeciles that did not know what a country means, what citizenship means, what is a nation and the purpose of building a nation for its own people. To these idiots, foreigners are not foreigners, and if people complained, just give the foreigners a pink IC and all the problems are solved, no more foreigners, all become Singaporeans already. So easily done. They did not know that they are having it so good, with million dollar salaries, is because of the pioneer Singaporeans that built this country and made it so good for them.
Back to this rage of being citizens and losing out to foreigners and demanding the govt to act for the interest of citizens, ie true blue Singaporeans, the builders of this country, the children of the builders of this country. They are feeling betrayed. Can understand this or not?
It is not too much, not wrong for citizens to want to have a better life in their own country and feeling aggrieved, violated, raped and marginalised when foreigners are coming here and having a better life than citizens. This is not simply envy. And spare the stupid comments that the foreigners are better and Singaporeans that are losing out deserved to lose out to the foreigners.
If political leaders cannot differentiate between foreigners and citizens and think it is alright to have foreigners in huge numbers employed in good jobs while Singaporeans have to be sidelined and downgraded to low paying jobs, then these political leaders do not deserved to be voted to power. Come to think of it, Clown Donald Trump is brighter than these imbeciles. They must be voted out if they think the interest of Singaporeans is not important and the well being of their darling foreigners are more important than Singaporeans.
The anger and rage will continue to grow and will blow away anti Singaporean leaders and politicians in a matter of time. And in a matter of time the anger will be directed at these politicians and leaders. Let's hope the imbeciles are able to sense the anger and unhappiness in the two comments above. And the two writers are not alone.
Below are a few profiles from Yahoo News of so called foreign talents that are/were working in Singapore. Just take note of their age and what kind of experience they could bring to make Singapore a better place.
1. After 13 years in Singapore, 22-year-old Callum Dunne was forced to leave in May. He lost his job, his visa expired and he couldn’t find new employment, leaving him with no option but to return to the UK.
“My entire life is in Singapore,” he said. “My family, my friends, my colleagues. It’s hard to be given a couple weeks to pack up your life and go.”....
“Even getting that S-Pass was so hard,” he said. “I worked as a football coach for about a year and a half. They didn’t have the quota to keep me so I lost that job. Then a bar in Boat Quay wanted to hire me but they also didn’t have a quota for foreigners. I finally found a job which could sponsor me in December last year, but I lost it because of the pandemic.”
2. “The industry in Singapore thrives because expats are ready to work here,” explained Rohit Bhattacharya, a 27-year-old who recently moved to Singapore for a consulting job. ... Rohit was managing a team in Singapore, and he trained them to apply many of the skills he acquired abroad. Now that he has lost his job, he plans to return to Australia where he was living before.
Can anyone really believe these kids are the talents that we need, that they have a wealth of experience that we don't have and can become football coach, consultants to teach our people, that they create jobs for Singaporeans?
Who are the sick people in Singapore that held these foreigners in high regards in preference for Singaporeans?
Which silly football club would engage a 20 year old kid as coach? Or is there something fishy about it? And MOM approved such an application?
ReplyDeleteA 27 year old kid is engaged as a consultant? How many years of working experience he got other than learning on the job acquiring new skills? And MOM approved his application for EP as a foreign talent?

" Singaporeans being marginalised in their own country by govt policies ..."
ReplyDelete- redbean
CORRECTION For redbean's consideration
We should use the phrase "PAP policies" and not "govt policies".
PAP is not the same as govt.
"WP govt policies" will be very different from "PAP govt policies".
Basically, the PAP's strategy is to stay in power forever. So that the PAP's Fat Cats can continue milking the Cow and live a comfortable and easy life with unfettered power for themselves and bright future for their children and cronies.
ReplyDeleteIdiotic Singapore voters must wake up.
The Grim Reality: 130 Doctors Died From COVID-19 in Indonesia Alone
ReplyDeleteSad news once again comes to us.
Within the first three days of October 2020, three more doctors died of COVID-19," Spokesperson of the IDI-Central Executive Board's Mitigation Team Elizabeth said in a statement that ANTARA quoted here on Sunday.
The medical professionals who succumbed to the infection comprise 110 male doctors and 20 female doctors, she said, adding that they came from 18 provinces, including East Java, North Sumatra, Jakarta, West Java, Central Java, and South Sulawesi.
Among them are 67 general practitioners, 61 medical specialists, and two residencies, Elizabeth said.
What about doctors in India, USA, Brazil, UK, EU, Africa, Russia, China and elsewhere?
WHO is not reporting how many doctors, nurses and medical care persons havd died of COVID-19 in the whole world.
What about Singapore?
All I can say it that graduates from Singapore Universities are not up to world class. Singapore Universities may be world class, but graduates from these universities are only book smart. They are not usually able to think out of the box. They are not innovative enough. I guess that it is the way they have all been brought up, always spoon fed and obedient with the kiasu and kiasi mentality. These young generation would never step out of line because of the government stick that would cane them if they ever did. So, having lived a life of obedience and never think out of the box, these new Singaporean generation can never compete with the lean, mean and hungry FTs from foreign countries.
ReplyDeleteA HR manager friend of mine interviewed some Singaporean graduates. He has often been asked by those Singaporean applicants about how much leave they would be entitled, whether they need to work overtime or weekends. These questions tend to give the impression of the quality of the candidates.
What to do? Singapore would have to depend on foreign imports until such mentality changes.
New citizens for sure are higher quality than most sinkies. Govt has luxury to choose the top 20% of foreigners for pink nric.
ReplyDeleteAs for the normal FTs & FWs, they are actually sama sama as average sinkies. The only difference is that these foreigners are willing to accept lower pay & always say yes sir yes sir no problem sir to bosses.
156 Earthquakes Jolted Northern Sumatra In A Week!
ReplyDeleteAntara News
4 October 2020
Jakarta - The Deli Serdang Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) in North Sumatra Province has recorded 156 earthquakes that rocked the northern parts of Sumatra Island from September 25 to October 1, 2020.
"The rate of the earthquake occurrence has significantly increased compared to that of a week ago which was recorded at 29," the agency's head, Teguh Rahayu, was quoted by ANTARA as saying here on Sunday.
This week's high tectonic activities were triggered by almost all faults in the northern parts of Sumatra Island with the Modified Mercalli Intensity (MMI) scales of between 1.3 to 4.9 and depths of between one and 147 kilometers, she said.
On Sept 30, for instance, earthquakes jolted the districts of Aceh Barat Daya, Nagan Raya, Bener Meriah, and Aceh Jaya in Aceh Province.
The magnitude of the earthquake that rocked 24 kilometers away from northwest of Blangpidie Subdistrict's areas in Aceh Barat Daya District was measured at 3.5, Rahayu said.
Earthquakes regularly rock various parts of Indonesia due to the fact that the country lies on the Circum-Pacific Belt, also known as the Ring of Fire, where several tectonic plates meet and cause frequent volcanic and seismic activities.
One of the deadliest earthquakes in Indonesia that occurred over these past two years was the one that struck several areas of Central Sulawesi Province.
The 7.4-magnitude earthquake which was followed by tsunami that hit the areas of Palu city and the districts of Donggala, Paringi Moutong, and Sigi on Sept 28, 2018, claimed 2,102 lives, injured 4,612, and rendered 680 others missing.
Comment :
Can remember the catastrophic Aceh tsunami and earthquake 15 years ago?
Will Singapore be so lucky and spared of all these earthquakes all the time?
Think, when it comes, will Singapore's political earthquakes be like the natural earthquakes that are happening in Indonesia today? Not possible?
Our universities are the best. Not because they are ranked as among the best. It is the fees you are paying. The more expensive, the better the quality of the education. Pay and pay for quality of education. But no guarantee to get a good job. No guarantee against degree mills and fake degree graduates getting the job and you be rejected.
