Alim 1st Gear February 24, 2011 Share February 24, 2011 This is not another FT bashing tread but let's look at the reality. I believe many FTs are like that, read and you'll know... Hi, I am 50 this year and am a naturalized singapore citizen who came to singapore in 1992 with my wife from Bombay for work. We have 2 children, both in poly now, one 18, the other 17, but are now in the US. And we have been living here happily for over 18+ years now. Although we got our citizenship many years back, we somehow managed to keep our citizenships and our kids also hold dual passports. We intend to renounce our singapore citizenships. In preparation for this, we have sold both our HDB flat and terrece house Nov last year and are now living in a rented 3 room flat. Recently, after lengthy discussions with my wife, we have decided to retire and go back to India this April and in the mean time, my 2 kids can continue to study in the Universities they have been accept to in the US and are there studying now. However, the older one of them received this NS enlistment letter recently. 1) Is there anyway for our 2 boys to avoid serving in NS? They tried to renounce their Singapore citizenship in December last year, but was not allowed to 2) If they simply do not serve NS, and just continue their studies overseas what are the consequences, is it a matter of just not being able to come in singapore in the future. 3) On renouncing citizenship, how long will CPF take to refund the monies held in our account. 4) Will we get back all the monies held there, ie, medisave, special and ordinary If anyone know of any short cut or workaround, please let me know. Thanks for your help. SOURCE: Singapore Expat ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fresh Clutched February 24, 2011 Share February 24, 2011 you why do you guys keep harping about this issue? you think FT stupid is it? this is human nature, they are not wrong to do this. in fact they are the smart ones. I would do it if I choose to work in another country. do you know why you guys keep complaining? it's called greeneyeism. and the fact that YOU CAN'T do what they can... accept it and move on.

Actually even though its true, but i think the gripe is with the government who made it so for those FTs to do so. That said, if i can have my cake and eat it, i would do the same .. lolz Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we dont complaint, our TEAM THUNDER will be just sitting their butts there and doing nothing. Anyway FTs are not so talented.. The good ones are those who are paid highly for their talents. As for the rest, they are just Foreign Trash and companies are just employing them because they are cheap. I support the government with the recent move to increase the FT leavy. BUT MORE CAN BE DONE TO prevent scums like you and our indian friend who came here to stay for short while and when time to pay your due, you started to think of ways to avoid the system. If you decided to work here and enjoy the benefits, dont shrink your balls when its time to pay back. Maybe we should install a huge levy (40% housing levy when u sell your HDB flats, CPF withdrawal via 15 yrs installments upon terminating your PR) on those FTs who decided to move back to their country after staying here for more than 5 years... maybe it will be your turn to complain.

I surely hope your boys enjoyed their stays in NS.. U cannot blame him for doing so, he is not wrong asking ways to avoid his son's NS. Same like here, there are threads here, singapore brothers asking ways to save by going in Boleh land to buy the cheap grocerries, fuel, food and etc. After getting the cheaper food, cheaper fuel, somemore can claim that they are contributing to boleh land economy. The FT had come to Singapore and did their contribution in building up the economy, some may said that they are not needed and didnt contribute much, if that is the case, why companies here still want and keep employing them. There must be a reason for it, just that you didnt have a vision and cant see it at your level. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
