S'pore to hire foreign dentists
By April Chong

TWO new initiatives are in the works to ease the dentist shortage here by allowing more dentists from the region to work in Singapore.

Together with other recent measures, this can help bring down the dentist to population ratio, from about one dentist for every 3,400 people to one for every 2,200 within the next two decades, said the health ministry's chief dental officer Associate Professor Patrick Tseng.

An agreement is in the works with India to make it easier for the dentists from their top institutions to work here, as long as they pass a series of qualifying exams. Currently, their dentists are not even eligible to sit for these exams.

Again, all these talks about bringing in foreign professional, always using the excuse of shaortage, noting the shortage here is due to the govt policy in restricting the numeber of brilliant students from getting trained as doctor & dentists etc.
The true picture is that the PAP want to save $$ in training locals and resort to impoting already trained professionals to earn our people $$, benfiting them but not us.
