MOM does not want to see a concentration of workers from a source or nationality

 Tan(See Leng) told reporters last Saturday that the government would examine the diversity of the workforce in sectors that need a lot of foreign workers. He said that MOM hopes not to see a concentration of workers from a certain source or nationality.

  

“From the perspective of this Covid-19 pandemic, one of the painful lessons we have learnt is that if you overly rely on one particular country, whether it is labour or for your talent, and if something happens and you get disruption, then you are going to be in a much more difficult position,” he said.

During the debate, Tan disclosed that the proportion of Indian nationals among EP holders had increased from 14% in 2005 to 25% last year. That is to say, among the 177,000 EP holders last year, one quarter came from 1 single country alone – India. He didn’t disclose similar figures for S Pass holders.

 

The above is from the correspondent and posted in TOC. What Tan See Leng said is like MOM does not want but has no choice, whatever that means, and so there is a concentration of workers from a certain source or nationality for so many decades or more than one decade. There is no choice, only India has the talent Singapore needed, other countries did not have, and so is no talent Singapore. Singaporean talents are only good to be grab driver and security guards or to deliver food. And the govt could not do anything about it, could not diversify, and still figuring how to go about it. By the time they come up with a solution, maybe another decade would have gone by and MOM would be run by a new batch of people...maybe from India.

What I find it puzzling is that the number of EP holders had increased from 14% to 25% last year. Why is this puzzling? If you turn left and turn right, or go to the central business district or go to East Coast or Chennai Business Park, all you see are foreign workers from one source or nationality. And they made up only 25%? Why is that so? If 25% is already filling everywhere, where is the 75% that could not be seen? Is it that our eyes are deceiving us or the numbers are funny? Should not we be seeing the 75% everywhere instead of the 25%? Is there a concentration of Ceca Indians in Chennai Business Park and Mumbai Financial Centre? Dunno there, no body knows. It just happen last night.

Something is not right. Who are the 75%, angmohs, pinoys or China Chinese? And together they are drowned by the 25%. Real or not?  Maybe 25% is bigger than 75%.

Would the imbeciles take a walk in Chennai Business Park and Mumbai Financial Centre, without putting on their sunglasses?

PS.  A country with no local talents. A country that badmouth its own citizens as no talents. A country that everyday bragged about how good foreign talents are even if they came from funny universities with funny or fake degrees. A country that told its graduate PMETs to retrain, to upskill as drivers, cleaners and security guards, and food delivery boys and girls. A country with no citizens, afraid to talk about citizens, only referred to them as locals or residents. Should be called a hotel instead of  state if citizens are a shame to be mentioned.

Covid-19 Is Driving World Leaders Mad

 

Devoid of ideas, ways and means on how to arrest the Covid-19 Pandemic that is going on for almost two years now, many world leaders are very desperate and panicking. They are drowning in the most strange turbulent ocean of disaster - causing havoc to the national and international economy as well as to their reputation and competency, to their stature and political careers. Under such prolonged conditions, some of them, if not all, are going bonkers.

Many of them are simply following the leader. The blind following the blind. Whoever is blinded first is the leader. The rest are the followers - the Fellowship of Blinds is formed naturally and voluntary, without the need to motivate and organise.

In the meantime, some cunning and unscrupulous big scammers are reaping huge profits, both monetary and fame. By the tune of US$53 Billions this year and a projected US$93 Billions in 2022, they happily and openly boasted. Windfall of the Century! Heaven-sent or deliberate heinously created opportunity of evil people, no one is the wiser.

No investigation led by preconceived, bias, corrupted minds, a mix of scientific and political hags, is going to discover the origin of the A,B,C,D,E Variants of the Contagious and Deadly Coronavirus (CDC) - with an acronym same as the CDC of USA, a highly political and politicised entity that is exerting its presence felt throughout the World of incompetent leaders grasping at last straws. Even the Israelis, the best brains on Earth, are not spared.

At the rate this madness is going on and on, as long as the abnormal, stealthy and invisible Coronaviruses are uncontrolled and uncontrollable, the Global Vaccination Program is going to become the Mockery of the Centuries. No politicians dare to admit. No leaders even dare to make a squeak. Perhaps some do, in private with their wives, in bed.

As long as one country is not safe, all countries are not safe.

As long as one country is spreading the viruses continuously to the rest of the world - a world that cannot do without trade and interactions, commerce and communications, banking and finance, travels and adventures, eating and banging - no corner of the world will be safe. All earthlings will be infected one way or another.

This may be divine intervention or human-created to restart the broken system of reform of an over-populated Earth, a deeply corrupted evil human world of greed, power-hunger, injustice, devious-plots and heinous deeds.

Vaccinated or not, all are going to be infected, sooner or later.

Some will fall sick and recover.

Some will fall sick and die.

Some will not fall sick but not die, especially the children.

Some will not fall sick and will not die immediately but may die in the not too distant future - dying of organs failure or heart-attacks, strokes or heartbroken because of loss of loved ones, or commit suicide because of loss of sole breadwinners and benefactors.

The toll will be great. The burden heavy. The costs immeasurable. The responsibility unavoidable. The leaders are going mad under immense pressure to perform and out-perform. This is the price of having incompetent leaders masquerading as world-best talents who are God's gift to Mankind.

God only helps those who help themselves!

Irony of ironies.

Covid19 - Singapore on the way to herd immunity

 Wednesday's 5,324 cases of  infection is good news for Singapore. If the number were to include those infected but not reported and staying home to recover, the total number of infection could be much more. Assuming that the total daily infection is 10,000, in 10 days it would be 100,000 and in 100 days it would be 1m. 

At this rate of infection, Singapore could be 100% infected very soon. The faster the rate of infection, the faster would all Singaporeans be infected, meaning Singapore would attain full herd immunity naturally, without any more need for vaccination or unending booster shots. Is this not what Singapore is trying to achieve?

Singaporeans thus must pray that more are infected and full herd immunity be achieved earlier. When this happens, there will be no more need for all the clumsy restrictive measures.  Singapore can then simply open up and live with the virus as a common cold.

Life will be normal, no need to wear mask, dine everywhere, party everywhere, no tedious processess of testings and VTLs.  Everyone is welcome, business as usual.

Well done MTF, well done Singapore for being the first to achieving full herd immunity and doing away with all the vaccines and unecessary encumbrance of the Pandemic.

Obsolete ASEAN And The Brainless Gaffe By Some Pro American Western Oriented Intellectuals.

 

PART     ONE

It is time for Asean to close shop and for the pro American stooges to stop their illicit comments .Asean should be disbanded and discarded now as it is a very anachronistic organisation which  no longer serves its noble aim . From day one when Asean was infiltrated by the Evil Empire - USA , it has been losing its credibility and bearing. Asean has been hijacked by USA to serve its agenda of divide and rule and its grand strategy of containing China's peaceful development. The belief that Asean countries are still running the organisation is a self deception and a disillusionment . The unseen hands of the Evil Empire behind the steering wheel is setting the direction and calling the tune. The intrigues of the Evil Empire has already undermined the peace, security and stability in the South China Sea and the East China Sea.The problem is that since many of the Asean leaders have their own selfish national interest to serve they become divisive and  an easy target for USA exploitation for its own agenda. Asean leaders and politicians and intellectuals in Think Tanks and institutions of higher learning are willing to be politically anaesthetised and numbed by USA that they become incapable of independent rightful thinking.

 They become subservient to USA dictates and like plasticine their pigeon brains are now controlled and moulded by the manipulative hands and political chicanery machines of  deviant and devious USA 's massive  insidious propaganda. Asean leaders and politicians choose to ignore the horrible painful history of violent USA wanton aggressions and invasions against other countries. They  ignore the historical truth of the real and rightful owners of the island territories in the South China Sea. For thousands of years since the Han Dynasty of 250 BC China had traversed and reigned these islands which was interrupted only by the arrival of the plundering marauding European buccaneers in the 1800s and later joined in by the savage Japanese  and American imperialists. Even then all the South China Sea islands inclusive of the Paracels, Pratas, Spratleys and others have always been recognised as Chinese territories by both East and West including USA and Japan and even the Viets and Pinoys prior to mid 1970s. It was somewhere around 1975 after China announced the discovery of large deposits of oil and other mineral resources under the seabed that the littoral states like Philippines , Vietnam , Malaysia and Brunei began to lay claim unabashly to many of the islands and of course with the instigation and support of USA. Their illogical claims provide USA with an unwarranted opportunity to create trouble and conflict among the claimants. USA's interference to stir up instability , turmoil and conflict is part of its overall evil scheme  to ultimately assume full hegemonic control of the East China Sea and the South China Sea. This is actually the scenario of USA strategy of pivot to East Asia.

 Before USA appeared on the scene there was peace and tranquility in East Asia and the South China Sea. For decades USA has left trails of blood and suffering in the Middle East with its plots and plans of endless wars among the divisive  Arabs where their deviant faith of many divisive denominations led to easy exploitation by USA for its own selfish interest of ultimately holding undisputed control and hegemony over the whole Middle East .

PART     TWO

Having created all the wars and misery in the Middle East USA thinks it can do the same in East and South East Asia. It is now bent on adopting the same wicked strategy of divide and rule in East and South East Asia.  USA is exploiting the greed and illogical claims of territories against China by some silly Asean countries and Japan.

Adding to the reverberations are the silly  comments of many anti China intellectual psycophants who are addicted to the sweet swelling farts and the special flavour of the American shit.Their silly anti China remarks will have its pay back politically and economically  and is of no benefit to their countries. They just regurgitated the wild vicious American propaganda which USA is used to hurl at a peaceful China. These moronic characters do not acknowledge their ancestral roots but choose to believe they are white and identify themselves culturally, mentally and ethnically with savage white people of the West. The white Americans and the Europeans must be laughing themselves silly thinking of these  deranged moronic Asian bananas. It is a disgrace that these pro American bananas are working in higher institutions supported by the government with tax payers' money.Their constant wild anti China utterances expose their utter ignorance of even the most basic history of China and Asia and may be the whole world. They should be removed from the government supported institutions  so as to save tax payers money and at the same time prevent them from bringing harm to the the country from their brainless gaffe. In a recent commentary a shameless nutty intellectual cast uncalled for aspersions on China and disparage China with irrelevant remarks which is anathema to Asean's interest. Remarks like "shoot itself in the foot" and "Trojan Horses" should apply more aptly to the intellectual's country and to Asean for inviting a satanic USA into the grouping and for acting as Trojan Horses on behalf of USA.

I would urge the self esteemed intellectuals to delve more deeply and seriously into history and especially on the history of savage American wars of aggression and conquests before they show their ignorance in their wild utterances.. The utterances that Asean survival as an autonomous body rests on its ability to neutralise external influence in its affairs" is hogwash. How can that be when Asean openly welcomes an outsider, a distant non Asian monster,a warmonger and world trouble maker into the grouping and allows this monster to hijack the agenda and call the dictates. All this while China look askance with disbelief at the folly of Asean. True to expectations USA began to create waves of crisis, instability, hostility and insecurity in the South China Sea region.US has seen fit to to indulge openly in issues between China and some individual Asean countries in a hostile and detrimental manner to China.The issues is between each individual Asean country and China and not between Asean as a group and China. It would appear that USA has succeeded in bribing some non involved Asean countries to use Asean as a block against China. Free passage is not an issue in the South China Sea and has never been an issue  But why is Asean on stasis and so dumb on USA harping on "Freedom Of Passage" knowing that Freedom of Passage is not an issue. Asean does not and should not assume the right to interfere in territorial claimant issues between China and a few of the other individual Asean states. It is a bilateral issue. Asean interference is bad enough and it is worsened by encroaching USA's interference. It clearly shows some Asean countries are conniving with USA to create trouble with the motive of getting some benefits from it.

In conclusion it is strongly advised that ignorant political commentators should keep their mouth shut to save them from contempt and disdain by the general public and to free the public at large from irritation and poisoning.

Logically speaking, India is the most advanced and talented country, Singapore next, China least

 China may be building space station, 5G, 6G, ghost cities, high speed trains, quantum computing, going to Mars, but if you look at China carefully, it is just a contractor, or merchant. China did not go to any country to teach them how to be a modern and advanced city or country. China just ask these countries if they want bridges, airports, seaports, trains, bridges etc etc, and if they said yes, China would build for them.

On the other hand, you often hear of Singapore sending missions to China to help China to build cities, eco cities, how to manage cities, how to run ports or trains, supply chains etc etc. As a result China benefitted from Singapore tremendously. Without Singapore sending delegations to teach China, China would never progress so fast. Dunno what else is Singapore going to teach China to be a more modern and advanced country?

On the other hand, Singapore is benefiting from India and India's talents. Without India and Indian talents, Singapore would not be what it is today. No financial centres, no big banks, no modern and clean infrastructure, no IT industry, no professors and scientists, everything would be backward and run down. Thanks to India and Indian talents for coming here to take over the running of the city state, now there are so many Indian talents helping this city state to be in the first world. And thanks to Indian talents, Singaporeans now have a lot of opportunities for skills training and skills upgrading, to become taxi drivers, cleaners, hawkers, etc etc. The politicians must be very grateful to the Indians to do all the work for them in running the city state and corporations, and free them to tackle the difficult task of Covid. If only the MTF are filled with Indian talents, the pandemic would be over. See how successful India is in tackling the problem?

India's superiority in technology would be the saviour of no talent Singapore. Singapore would cling onto the tail coat of India to become a modern high tech city state. Without India, Singapore would be doomed.

You can see the pattern, Indians training and helping Singapore, and Singapore helping China, in that order of merits. China is so lucky to have Singapore and Singapore so lucky to have India, The skills and expertise were passed down from advanced and talented India to Singapore and then to least advanced China.

Did anyone know that China got 5G ad 6G and building space station? Did anyone know that China has the most advanced high speed train system, electric vehicle cities, etc etc?

Logical or not?

PS. It takes a lot of guts or stupidity to go to China to tell the Chinese you can teach them modern technology or how to run or build their country. Even the Indians would not have the audacity to do so.
