Mecontle 1st Gear June 3, 2011 Share June 3, 2011 (edited) http://forums.asiaone.com/showthread.php?t=39927 To MOM I wrote before about my situation whereby I was hired to replace a pinoy. The pinoy originally declined the job offer but later regretted his decision and was not happy about me been the replacement. He was eventually sent back to Philipines a few months later but his gang of friends (pinoys also) soon began to employ tricks to make me leave the company so that he can make a comeback. The tricks involved not teaching the skills/info needed to do my job, hostile stares and badmouthing. The badmouthing went something like this.

I was sick during one period and took medication which made me drowsy and the pinoys would complained that I kept yawning non-stop during office hours/training/meeting and was not interested in my work. I overheard this when I entered a meeting through the rear door.

Yappiez Neutral Newbie June 4, 2011 Share June 4, 2011 can someone tell me if there's a law stating a company in Singapore (local or foreign) gotto hire a certain %tage of locals? locals = Singaporeans not including PRs! there is a ratio quota system to fulfil in each industry. X number of Singaporeans or PRs = X number of WP holders. No such rule for Singaporeans only. Most business will close door this there is such rule.
