Latka 1st Gear February 16, 2009 Share February 16, 2009 (edited) im a pray tell, why should a pr take up citizenship when we all know that having an alternative place to retire is something that we all plan for? being a citizen, only batam and johor are options... as stated by our million dollar ministers. why get angry with prs who started their family here, pay tax, etc? sore over ns? go look up ur minister. dun cry and cry but when erection come, all vote for 66.6%. where do u draw the line between citizen and pr privileges? why no one tell sinkies working overseas to change their citizenship to that country? Since when anyone was angry with PRs? It is thanx to Mr. Gopal who shot his mouth off w/o thinking or considering the consequences. Unfortunately this is not boleh land where after leaving the political arena, people still can talk bad about others and get away with it.

Gadgeter 2nd Gear February 16, 2009 Share February 16, 2009 ....................... Imagine this. Our flat will be ready only in 2012. Of our two incomes, I earn more than my wife. My income pays for almost everything, including rent (which has increased astronomically). The cost of living has gone up, and even cooking at home is no cheaper then eating outside. Paying utility bills, insurance premiums, car loan, education loans and so on leaves us with just enough to make ends meet. In recent months, we have had to dip into our savings to pay for many things. ....................... We used to consider ourselves slightly better off than middle class, but now we are not even in that category. If I lose my job, because I am not a Singaporean, where would that leave us? As many have mentioned, no one forces him to stay here. He could have jolly well joined the rest at the causeway every morning. But no, he chooses to buy a flat and a car. Should I also write in to complaint that I'm worse than those in the middle-class even tot I AM a Singaporean!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ichibawa 5th Gear February 16, 2009 Share February 16, 2009 Aiya... argue so much also no use. You can talk till the cows come home and there is still a lot of dissatisfaction. The balance of privilidges between a citizen or a PR is not decided by you and me, why not just let others do their job. The world is already so full of chaos, we will end up destroying ourselves one day if we don't change our differences and unite as one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
