[h=2]Discriminatory job ad looking for Filipinos only[/h]

Dear Sir,
I would like to bring to your attention this online job ad I came across today, 25 July 2012 on Gumtree Classified Ads.
Is This Fair Play?

.
From the screenshot shown, the ad clearly requested for FILIPINOS ONLY.

In our current society, our delicate social climate is juxtaposed against a delicate backdrop of nationalist sentiments within a unique multinational, multiracial city state. Anti-foreigner sentiments are already running high due to the government’s pro-foreigner policies, and exacerbated by a number of high-profile incidents (I will not dwell into this). Albeit the humble nature of the candidate sought in this particular ad, in any other country, any occurrences of these type of job advertising practices would be considered rare, even remote at best. But not for Singapore, evidently.

Discriminatory job ads are certainly not new in Singapore. This issue has been previously highlighted in various other cases where MOM, and in particular, our Minister of State for Manpower, Mr. Tan Chuan-Jin has clearly stated that the nation, as well as its relevant bodies governing this particular aspect of manpower practices, frowns upon any form of racial or gender bias in its entirety rearing its ugly head within any recruitment ads. Despite our generosity (specifically in allowing it to go the first time with just a warning), the perpetrators have simply taken our goodwill for granted and certainly no heed of prior examples. This is a most blatant form of disrespect for locals residing in the host country; the malaise has to be stemmed, and the plague amputated right at the beginning before it further festers the already fractured local-foreigner relations.

This clearly has to stop. Singaporeans do not deserve to be discriminated in their own country.Obviously, what has been done before to try to ameliorate this – is clearly not enough.

Yours Sincerely,
.

Editor’s note:

Take note that in the ad, it seems to be saying that the basic $1000 is for a 10 hours per day, 6 days a week work. That works out to be 60 hours a week which is a violation of the 44 hours a week work limit unless overtime is paid. Even if overtime is paid, a worker is not allowed to work more than 72 hours a month, generally speaking.

The Sinkie Chinks did the same thing to the Malays for more than half a century so it's good to seem them getting a dose of their own medicine.

[Unrepented]

To I go shopping buy something, can't find the item. So I asked the sales staff, i tot is a malay bro, turned out to be a pinoy. I asked him to help, he mumbled something........suppose to be in english I think, but I can't make out what he was trying to say. I asked again and he mumbled a sentence full of something. I couldn't understand, I said thank you and left the store.

Now I believe what other people say about pinoy language ability.:o Worse than mine.:p

 

[laksaboy]

It's a shit job with a shittier pay anyway, so chances are Pinoys will happily apply for them.

Dead end job with zero chance of growth.

 

[chonburifc]

Forget about what those NPNT TUA KANG YAO SIU said.

FAKE Catholic Pinoys are the most undesirable assholes. Never give them a chance else your next generation will hate you forever. See a pinoy shit, slap on their face and then spit on their face. Don't worry, the sinkee poodle cannot do anything to you.

 

[Unrepented]

The one I came across today, his english is really really really fucked up.........I wonder how he passed the interview.

Unless he spoke tagalog to me, and I mistaken it for english :(

Only need your guts.
