Nowadays, young Singaporeans can’t study computing even though they score as well as law and med school students.
The government never increase intake for these courses but complain that we don’t have enough local IT talents. Then, they get more foreigners to do IT jobs. When we complain, they will say that it is because of the rising need for tech jobs and not because they favour CECA.
They want local talents but they don’t bother to nurture Singaporeans.
Then how? Who can solve the problem? Are they solving the problem? Why? Do they even understand or care about our concerns?
About is quoted from All Singapore Stuff ASS.
Is Singapore short of IT talents? Yes.
Is Singapore importing plane loads of IT talents from overseas? Yes.
Are 3As good enough for admission to NUS Computing School? I think so. But if the intake is small despite our lack of IT talents, then how? Especially when foreign students are admitted and most of them would have 4As, 5As or even 10As, sure better than our 3As. 3As sure not good enough right? Never mind if the foreign students could be using fake results or from funny and dunno what type of schools whose results cannot be verified or mostly suspects. Don't blame the foreign students, they are all very honest, they would not cheat. They are more honest than Singaporeans. Just simply accept their results and let them take the place of our not so good grade Singaporeans. Meritocracy mah.
Singaporeans or not, we must be fair to everyone. We are a metropolis and Singapore belongs to everyone. Don't complain so much. If Singaporeans are not good enough, make way for the world's best talents. Fake talents also can.
Maybe the NUS did not know we are short of IT talents so never increase the intake capacity. Maybe the govt also dunno so did not have the foresight to increase the intake. This problem definitely is not intentional, negligence or due to mismanagement. Or maybe it is easier and cheaper to bring in foreign talents, no need to educate them, save a lot of money. I also dunno the real reason.
Or maybe this is fake news. I never check. So please don't make me appear in front of any committee. I will remove this post if this is fake news. I have no means to check it, just like the many foreigners coming here with their certificates. How to check? It would probably take 55 man years to check one case. Best no need to check. They are all honest what.
Ask the Education Minister. Don't ask me.
PS. Actually it is a blessing in disguise. If he gets into university, slogged for 3/4 years, paid nearly $100,000 to get his degree, he would still likely be jobless. There would be many foreigners with better paper grades, real or fake no one knows, getting the job he would be applying. And he would still end up jobless or drive Grab or be delivering food. So, save the money, save the time and join the many qualified jobless Singaporeans or underemployed, doing odd jobs and part time jobs.
Remember, they are bringing in plane loads of 'highly qualified' graduates from God knows where to steal your lunch. And all of them would be flashing straight As with distinctions and quickly hired, no question asked about their qualifications or from what funny universities.
How many highly qualified Singaporeans are unemployed, underemployed when they could easily filled up the positions held by funny foreigners that are not the responsibility of a responsible govt? Why vote for a govt that thinks its responsibility is to provide good paying jobs for foreigners, to solve other countries' unemployment problems and leaving our own citizens unemployed?
