The world is our hinterland. This is now extended to the world is our hinterland for top talents. When Singapore taps in on the world to provide its top talents, Singapore is spoilt for choices. Can you imagine there are 8 billion people out there to choose from against our population of less than 4m citizens or less than 6m locals cum residents?
1% of 8b is 80m. If Singapore go for the best of the best, the top 0.1%, there are 8m to choose from. And Singapore only needs 4 to 6m of these talents to replace every single no talent or sup sup suay talents we have here. Mind you, the top 0.1% of the best in the world, they must be the best in their fields or geniuses. And these are the top people in high earning jobs. What about the top talents in their respective fields, like the top cleaners, top security guards, top taxi drivers, top food deliverors? The number of these talents could be in the tens of millions.
If Singapore were to put its craving for the world's top talents, using meritocracy and talents as the guiding factors, I think every Singaporeans can be replaced by the top talents of the whole world. And Singapore would become the top city of the world with all the top talents of the world here.
It would really be a city of excellence. $30,000 pm talent would not be able to find a place here. Even above mediocre talents earning more than a peanut would not fit in, would not qualify, if this is the way to go. And surely all the fake talents with fake degrees would also not qualify unless they are the top cheats, so talented that the world's top talents also can be cheated by them.
What do you think? Should Singapore replace all the Singaporeans with all the really top top talents of the world?

Hey, a peanut earner is one earning S$50,000 a month. That was ages ago. Today, peanuts are probably worth much, much, much more.
Didn't some wise guy said that those earning less than S$500,000 are mediocre. So, attracting those just earning S$30,000 or less than S$40,000 per month are also mediocre. Are we talking about attracting more fakes?
Singapore is like a roadside stall with high traffic, only a few stall hands are needed to run it.
What talent to talk about ?
When someone is talking about setting the eye to the sky, remembering that the sky is the limit, then as he came down from that sky and sets the limit at $30,000 a month, he is actually not talking about setting the sky as the limit but about a con man trying to con you and me.
$30,000 a month means $360,000 a year. That is still much below the $500,000 a year. So, what our con man is talking about really?
Big man with big mouth.
That S$500,000 a year means that attracting those earning S$30,000 a month are not up to standard. Why not set the mark at S$45,000 per month to take it closer to the 'above' mediocre level to attract real talents?
Good one RB, my toe is laughing..but i have 1 suggestion to save a little $$..just need to replace all the clown in parLeement will do.
With 8b to chose from, I am sure we can find all the best PMs money can buy, and all the ministers too.
Cannot replace all the Singaporeans. We still need the Singaporean men to do NS to keep the island safe for the foreigners to work here . . .
Once all Singaporeans are replaced, then those who replaced them will have to do NS lah. So simple also don't know?
When super super talents are in charge, after they replaced the fake or not so super talents, they have many clever ways of protecting themselves. They may not want to import smarter than them super talents here, just import the rubbish and the fakes, so no threat to them. They may run the place with robots. Or they may keep some no talents, pay them cheap cheap to do NS.
Hi red bean. I'm still here..
What do you think? Should Singapore replace all the Singaporeans with all the really top talents of the world?
