I have no problem for him to be a citizen.

I think the issue is tat he has served his national service. That is why it is an issue. If he never served NS, probably no one will care.

i think this type of thing should be auto lor. he already gave 2 yrs to serve ns. still need to prove wat? #$%%!

 

those pple in the white elephant department rather gave citizenship to unskilled PRCs then to him.

I applied for a APEC business travel card and after waiting for more than 2 months of not receiving the temporary card (which they should send out after 1 month with whatever countries that's been approved till that point), I called up ICA and spoke to the officer.

 

She was surprised that I haven't received anything and promised to look into it. She called up later and told me that they didn't send out the card as they are waiting for my priority countries (In your application, you can specify up to 5 priority countries) to be cleared. I asked her to list the priority countries and she listed the correct one which according to the APEC website has already been approved.

 

I asked her if my priority countries have been approved, then why have they not send the card to which she said "Ya, but China has not been approved yet" and I told her "well, China is not my priority country as I don't go there often" and she said "Oh, normally people put China as priority so we though your case is the same as well".

 

I am not surprised if they make a mistake in the case of Ryuju-San as well.

He deserves the Pink IC more than Ms Gong or those FTs who worked here long enuf loh. At least he sweated it out in green.

If you are stateless, your main concern is to have a place to stay, first too, right? And he would like to stay in a place he lived since 10, did NS, cultivating the 7 core values. I see nothing wrong.

 

Better than some of those people, ask them do NS, cry father cry mother, give up citizenship, happy to be PR. Then to add salt to the wound, work earlier & gain better position & pay than us doing NS.

 

 

I'm just being cynical there...but I do agree that he deserve to be treated better than those leeching PR pussies who siam NS

[Spongee]

add another vote of support.

[Shanhz]

anyone who has gone thru NS deserves his citizenship

[Playtime]

next times PRs will say serve NS also no guarantee, so another reason not to serve.

[Donut]

our garment priorities are screwed.....

 

those bloody FTs who just come and work, never serve NS, never study here, never pay tax, garment is like a dog with tougue hanging out, begging them to be PRs....

 

to this half Jap guy, they refused to grant citizenship JUST because he missed out 2 letters....

 

 

We are really screwed......

My guess is he's only foreign but no talent(N-level). Alternatively if he con't studies & graduate from poly. Govt will offer him citizenship. Within 3 month should be able to get it done.
