Temasek Review
A probable Indian new citizen/PR has asked a Singapore citizen and NSman complaining about unfair competition from foreigners to make himself more “marketable” on a discussion about the Budget 2010 on YPAP Facebook:
[Source: YPAP Facebook]
The discussion was started by YPAP member Genesis Shen who had expressed concerns that the PAP’s “generous spending” on the middle and lower income families in Singapore will “affect the Party’s long term policy of fiscal prudence.”
Ting Siong, a 28 year old Singapore Chinese male who had served two and a half years of National Service shared his personal experience: he had been doing one contract job one after another because the permanent jobs are mostly taken up by foreigners.
Mr Sinha Shekhar,who was born in Dhanbad, India and indicated clearly that he shared the political views of the PAP on his Facebook, replied that “there is nothing called permanent jobs” and urge Ting Siong and other Singaporeans to make themselves more “marketable and move ahead”.
He also praised the budget as being a “very prudent” one and it is “good that we have been tiSghtening our belt for quite some time.”
His insensitive and callous remarks brought a barrage of criticisms from fellow Singaporeans on the discussion who questioned if he is a new citizen or PR.
A Singaporean Sin Rak Sin told Mr Sinha to shut up:
“Sinha, Cut the bootlicking crap and shut the fxxk up, will u? We do not need a foreigner to meddle with our internal domestic affair.”
Of late, the Straits Times Forum has been publishing letters of support from these new citizens and PRs heaping praises on the PAP government.
How can Sinha expect Singaporeans to make themselves more “marketable” when they have to compete directly with foreign workers who cost a fraction of them?
Furthermore, NSmen like Ting Siong are at a disadvantage as they have to be away for 4 weeks each year due to reservist obligations.
The PAP has been actively recruiting PRs and new citizens like Sinha into their Youth Wing and grassroots organizations to boost their flagging support base.
As they are not familiar with Singapore, they tend to agree blindly with what the leaders told them, as exemplified by the comments posted by Sinha.
Due to the PAP’s liberal immigration policies, foreigners now make up 36 per cent of Singapore’s population, up from 14 per cent in 1990. Of the remaining 64 per cent who are citizens, an increasing number are born overseas like Mr Sinha.
According to a recent Wall Street Journal, the relentless influx of foreigners over the last few years has depressed the wages of ordinary Singaporeans, increased the cost of living, especially that of public housing, decreased labor productivity and led to an overall decline in the standards of living.
Faced with a potential backlash from angry voters in the coming election, the PAP is now trying to sing a different tune to placate Singaporeans.
If Singaporeans do not vote wisely in the next election, they will have to bear with the lectures of not only the PAP leaders, but their new “comrades” like Mr Sinha as well.
Well. Be careful of touching Singaporean politics refugee! Anyone born in China or India who desire to become MP of Singapore one day should face the sniper shot like Martin Luther King.

Maybe we should scrap the protect give to him - let see we scrap 2 year of national service and year 1-2 week in camp !!! Instead - we use these time to be more marketable !!!
Then for Foreign talent - we make them do 2 years and serve year 1-2 week - see he have time to talk cock so much !!!!
Agreed, scrape off the ns and make our boys on par with those so call foreign talents.
Our boys wasted 2 yrs in ns while the so call foreign talents have 2 years to push themselves up the ladder. Leaving all lower position and contract jobs to our boys when they ROD.
How insulting. Obviously they doesn't know understand how badly Singaporeans are coping nowadays. Do you guys really wanna see this type of person becoming your leader in the near future, making decisions for you? Think wisely.
Scrape ns and let mindef run by pte ltd.
Let the company employ pple who want to work in army. Pay the pple who work in army salary.
And let the boys on par with foreigners in the corporate world. Our boys dont want to be at the bottoom while they at the top.

Like this, then where is our patriotism, you boys must be patriotic to your country, dun be money minded, learn to do something that is for voluntary and free for the country, if everything also voice down to money, then, i think my opposite gender are all materialistic and money minded, haven't you boys lost all your compassionate and patriotic feeling to your love ones, your parents, your gf, mistresses, etc etc??
The agenda of a Taiwanese 'hum' in this SgForum was clearly stated by itself - ‘to make sure the audience moving/divert toward you’ (*1)
Is it any surprise to see that the efforts of the resident CBM here is obviously to sabotage the thread with its flippant and irrelevant replies, and get all attempts at serious discussion to be driven off track - simply to bring attention to its own stupidity ?
With its brain stuck between its ‘Labia Majora’ and ‘Labia Minora’ - and a brain no bigger then the size of its ‘clitoris’ - all it can do is to flap in rapturous idiocy to attract attention to itself as an 'Attention Seeking Whore' fitted with a world class CBM.
Wee! Uncle!

singapore male youths are super!
while they compete head on with an extreme influx of FTs ,
they still get to enjoy serving the country.
super man!
best of all, no one owes u a living.
even new citizens say we complain a lot.
citizenship has its privileges, among them , you get to serve the NS and on top of that 10 to 13 years cycle of Training while you are climbing the corporate ladder.
This privilege is one of the many that distinguishes a citizen from a PR or FT if not new citizens who may no need to serve but their children when grown up can serve and enjoy this privilege, but only if their children is not PR or foreigner status or choose to remain a citizen lah.
Seriously, how come male citizens who serve NS never get much privileges from the government?
How about higher priority for HDB flats? Or more subsidies in medical treatments etc?

If PRs cannot see the additional burden of National Service and its reservist obligations, tell him or her to imagine that it is akin to the PR taking 2-4 weeks of no pay leave from the employer every year and going to do often unproductive menial work under the hot sun for those 2-4 weeks.
If they feel that this does not add any extra burden on the individual, then I have nothing more to say.
Credit to the marketing department of SG govt......sell haven and earth.

It is not a surprise that the Taiwan 'hum' will continue to agitate by flapping its ‘Labia Majora’ and ‘Labia Minora’ to taunt with total "carte blanche" liberties to disrupt as it pleases without any intervention from the moderators.
