Are Singaporeans anti foreigners or victims of foreigners stealing their lunch?

The Singapore Business Federation is so worried about “the recent rise in anti-foreigner sentiments” that it hosted a dialogue on October 1 with Chan Chun Sing. Representatives from 16 foreign chambers, including the American Chamber of Commerce in Singapore and the Singapore International Chamber of Commerce, voiced their concern to the Trade and Industry Minister. Quite a gathering of corporate lions....

Minister Chan assured participants that Singapore remains committed to being open and connected to the world, and continues to welcome foreign investments and global talent to build the best team to play for Singapore in the global arena.”....

 The above is from an article by Tan Bah Bah on the fear of foreign companies that Singaporeans have turned against foreigners. Now why should these companies be so ire or disturbed by this presumed predicament? This is far from the truth. Singaporeans, put it crudely, loved foreigners and like to be 'screwed' by foreigners and would say thank you for it, especially the bananas that are plenty among the daft Singaporeans.  There are unhappiness among Singaporeans, for sure, but more because the economy is not doing well and many are losing their jobs and finding it tough in this expensive city to get by without an income. And when they see the ease in which foreigners are getting employed while they getting sacked or retrenched, as citizens, it would be stupid if they are not angry with govt policies that put them in a very disadvantageous position.

By the way, why should foreign companies be unhappy just because Singaporeans are asking to be treated fairly and to be employed, to get a good job? Why are these foreigner companies here in the first place? They cannot be relocating here just to employ foreigners and not Singaporeans. If they come here just to employ Indians, Pinoys, Australians or westerners, then they should not locate their businesses here. They can go to India, the Philippines, Australia, Europe etc etc where they can get all their foreigners easily, no need to employ Singaporeans. Did they know that Singaporeans are the best educated, from the best universities, no cheating, no degree mills, no fake degrees and very hard working? 

Now who have been spreading the notorious lies that Singaporeans are untalented, lazy and not interested in their jobs? People spreading these lies are traitors to Singaporeans and ought to be shot. These silly lies against Singaporeans, that foreigners are talents and Singaporeans are not have gone too far that even fake foreign talents from third world dysfunctional countries, with funny degrees and fake degrees, believed they are more talented than Singaporeans.

It is time that our silly leeders stop belittling and discrediting Singaporeans and praising fake foreign talents with dubious degrees and qualifications to destroy the confidence in the ability of Singaporeans as the best workers in the region. Our first world city cannot be built by daft Singaporeans. Oooh, now silly fake foreigners from dysfunctional third world countries are claiming that they built this first world city and without them Singapore will fail. Can you believe that? 

Stop the silly myth and lies that we need foreign talents and Singaporeans are all daft and useless!

Now what is the problem with unhappy Singaporeans? Tan Bah Bah put up several questions that have nothing to do with Singaporeans being anti foreigners. It is all because Singaporeans also want good jobs and a good life in their own country. And Singaporeans rightly feel betrayed and rightly feel angry when they are being disadvantaged, discriminated and marginalised in their own country and finding getting a good job very difficult.

The questions below by Tan Bah Bah are very pertinent and basic to what being a Singaporeans is all about.

'What exactly is this anti-foreigner sentiment that is constantly being hurled at poor Singaporeans by its own government? 

Is it anti-foreigner to question whether CECA or any other trade agreement has put the job security and expectations of Singaporeans at risk? Is it anti-foreigner to question whether double standards are being practised in ensuring laws are being followed? Is anti-foreigner to highlight the misbehaviour of some expatriates? Is it anti-foreigner for Singaporeans, especially non-Chinese ones, to want our bus captains to able to communicate with non-Chinese Singaporeans?

Is it anti-foreigner for NS-serving male Singaporeans (and their affected family members) to ask what exactly it is that they are serving to protect – the interests of PRs and others? Would they be wasting two years of their lives (and more, doing reservist training) so that they may end up being at a massive disadvantage in their careers and everything else in life? Is it anti-foreigner if they totally resent being told at the same time that they are too cautious and unwilling to “take risks” (such as seek careers outside Singapore), implying they are not competitive enough, compared to risk-taking and hungrier foreigners?

How has it come to past that the victims of an unfair system are being cast as the villains by an establishment – government and business elite – too used to taking its citizens for granted?'

 

Only imbeciles cannot understand these and still think it is necessary to appease the foreigners and foreign companies setting up business here but not wanting to employ Singaporeans. It is time to tell these foreign companies to wake up their ideas. If they want to employ Indians, go to India. If they want to employ Australians, go to Australia. If they want to employ Pinoys go to the Philippines. In Singapore, employ Singaporeans. We are the best. 

Oh, Singaporean companies and GLCs that think Indian workers are the best should relocate to India, cheap and good and very talented.

Another myth, we need foreigners to help us fight against the world. Unfortunately the foreigners here are the rejects of their countries and the US or European countries. Even they join us would not make much difference as the best would not be here, would be in the US or Europe or in their own countries. Those that came here, to be in our team, are the mediocres, the unwanted, the unemployed, the jobless, the not good enough. How to compete with the better ones that are not here? Get that?
