Serious Jobless Singaporean PMET lamented at our lunch-stealing pro-foreign hiring stance

Dear Gilbert,

I feel very sad and demoralized. I have been unemployed for more than a year. And then to hear the ministers insisting that it is a skills-mismatch problem is like saying it is our fault ! They simply refuse to admit that there are no proper jobs for us.

Why so face-saving? Already how many ministers have said that their main KPI this year is “jobs jobs jobs”. MOM statistics says there are only 77 jobs for every 100 jobseekers. The 77 jobs available are also unclear in their category and the jobseekers may include thousands of foreigners from dependent-pass holders who are already staying here legally.

The foreigners here on tourist visa are also looking for jobs! Why don’t admit there is not enough jobs when your own data indicated otherwise indirectly? Admitting the mistake is the first step to addressing the problem right?

Why is MOM still letting in MORE foreigner PMET? But instead they keep saying they have already cut down on the work permit S Passes? The problem is PMET has no job! Minister wants our jobless PMET to do work-permit holder job is it? Why do they keep letting in all these foreigner PMET? Are our own Singaporean PMET so lousy?

Dear Gilbert, what I am trying to say is they should stop putting the blame on us. Already we are suffering from very low morale, they say “it is you who have no skills not that there are no jobs” is just further demoralizing us.

This will only make us even more pissed off at their no-help schemes. Just admit your job creation is not productive and cut your own pay and bonuses! We are skilled PMET and yet you keep letting in foreigners to steal our lunches!
