13177 Hypersonic July 10, 2012 Share July 10, 2012 (edited) For my metaphor, tourniquet the arm and get to the hospital. For the FT issue. The issue is never about income level but the number we let in. Lets be clear, we have more people who can earn >SD8,000 a month than the country can hold. Solution: Do a study on how many people the country can hold comfortably and then size the number of foreigners coming in according to our needs. Frankly speaking, we need a lot of nurses and workers in the construction industry. If they are willing they (and their families) are welcome to become Singaporeans despite their lower salaries. I am far more receptive to these people and the family of these.who toil and contributed to the country than scholars (with their entitlement complex) who get scholarship, study here then leave. Quite true, by raising the income level would not solve the root cause, this measure will only solve the surface problem and the issue still exists. How come they never mention anything on the number of FT allowed into sillypore?! For example if they allowed 10K of FTs/FWs into sillypore last time, and if they really want to tighten the influx of foreigners, maybe they reduce the number to halve something like that?

13177 Hypersonic July 10, 2012 Share July 10, 2012 on one hand, they always blame our aging population is due to lack of birth to replace the young workforce... on the other hand, they last time so easily allow families of foreign workers to come over to stay, especially their parents which (no offense) have little to offer to the contributions to our economies They surely blame the local people la, if not blame who? Blame the FTs ar?! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The floodgate has been opened for a long time to the nurses actually. You can see lots of ATB and pinoy nurses around. Fortunately or unfortunately, ladies can't sponsor husband to come. Only the other way round is allowed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KARTer 2nd Gear July 10, 2012 Share July 10, 2012 better than doing nothing at all Assuming these are genuine changes, the kpkb people made against open-legs policies favouring FTs relatively speaking has at least achieved something Who says whiners can only make whining noises? Eat your word those who are against whining in this case. If those who kpkb had kept quiet, we may not see these changes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garment here confirm would not close door to FTs, they still open their door wide wide to them. But since local people are complaining about FTs, so they need to perform some "show" for local people to see mah. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaiKia-Lee 1st Gear July 10, 2012 Share July 10, 2012 The stupid government bodoh kia obviously never use their brain when import "foreign talent" . Please la. You import one "talent", he or she is obviously going to bring in his father, mother, wife mother and wife papa, son and daughter and their own wife or hubby. So when u import one person, he is bringing in at least 5 Untalent together with him to cause trouble here in Singapore. When I walk around neighbourhoods in bedok, yishun, woodlands etc on any given day, I am bound to see these foreign dependent stealing and pushing cardboards trying to make a living. They fight with local 80 year old aunties over these meagre jobs. Obviously the government foreign talent policy is FLAWED. Lucky I am now a foreign talent in Johor bahru.

At least Geylang prostitutes charges a fee for guys to roam. Singapore sometimes pay scholars to roam them. Sad but true. I look @ my pink IC and I feel so miserable. Tried to apply for PR in Malaysia but they say I am not bumi so cannot. Looks like my IC will forever remain a useless pink. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
