Foreign trash is not long term measure to keep our economy running and increasing birth rates. Most of them are here to make a quick buck as they come from third world country and 80% of them will balek kampong within 5 years. They are fine with earning $1000 a month as the rental for third rate dormitory is very cheap (some of which has conditions like those overcrowded shop houses in 1950s) and they have favourable currency exchange rate back at home. Sending $500(2200RMB)back to China is better than earning $200 a month back in their village. When you pay peanuts, you are only going to get monkey workers and not high skilled professionals and talents. Real talents will demand expat packages or at least the same terms as locals doing the same work.
The PAP ask us to be realistic on wages, but is $1000 a month enough to pay long term liabilities like mortgage, car loans and short term debts like credit card debts, business loans or study loans? Singaporeans also have their family commitments like taking care of elderly parents and young children. Our elderly parents will have lots of health problems like diabetes, cancer, stroke and heart disease and need to spend a lot of money on drugs and medicine. We need to pay for the education and technological gadgets that our children need. Oh PAP please stop taking Singaporeans for granted and strive to serve our needs instead of keeping on embracing foreign trash for your selfish needs (cutting cost and increase profit margins). Singaporeans won't develop loyalty to this place unless we are taken seriously.
