April 25th, 2010 |
Author: Your Correspondent
The “integration” obsession which has grown to engulf the entire nation will soon be spreading to Singapore schools as well.
Due to the PAP’s liberal immigration and pro-foreigner policies, foreigners now make up 36 percent of Singapore’s population, up from 14 percent in 1990.
As too many immigrants were accepted within too short a period of time, Singapore is now experiencing serious problems on how to integrate all of them into society.
During a symposium held yesterday, educators agreed that “the classroom is a natural starting point for integration, according to a Channel News Asia report.”
Senior Minister of State for Education Grace Fu said:
“As young children, they will look at their friends as friends. They don’t really care what race, what religion, what culture they come from. And I think that’s precisely the point that we think social integration can take place and can take place well.”
Ms Fu was the Guest of Honor for a “Water Festival” held last week by Bukit Batok grassroots organizations for foreigners living in Singapore. She told a netizen that the event was a a way of Singaporeans showing their “respect” to foreigners.
The inaugural Symposium on Integration in Schools is organised by the National Integration Working Group for Schools, a committee under the National Integration Council.
The PAP unveiled a mega $10 million dollar Community Integration Fund last year to make the newcomers feel welcomed and accepted in Singapore.
In other countries, immigrants are expected to adapt themselves to their host country. It is the other way round in Singapore. Not only are Singaporeans exhorted repeatedly by PAP leaders to embrace the immigrants, they are expected to compete directly with them as well in all aspects of life such as public housing, jobs and primary school places.
Despite rising disgruntlement on the ground, the PAP continues to insist that foreigners are “essential” to Singapore and Singaporeans should accept them as they are descendents of immigrants as well.
