FOREIGNERS got the lion's share of jobs created last year, but nearly all of these were in the construction and service sectors. The latest official figures showed a record 156,900 of them joined the workforce, soaking up seven in 10 of the new jobs.
The remaining 64,700 new jobs went to Singaporeans and permanent residents.
These new numbers are derived from the labour market report for 2008 released by the Manpower Ministry yesterday.
While the stark difference in the share of new jobs may raise eyebrows, analysts say it does not indicate that locals were losing out.
They noted that most of the jobs taken by foreigners were shunned by locals.
Economist Choy Keen Meng of Nanyang Technological University (NTU) said: 'I wouldn't say that locals have been sidelined; it's just that most of the new jobs created are in construction and low-skilled service industries.
'So they naturally went to cheaper foreign workers.'
Labour MP Halimah Yacob agreed: 'If you boil it down to the sectors, you will see they are working in jobs like construction, where it is not easy to attract locals.'
All in, a total of 221,600 jobs were created last year. But most came onstream at the start of 2008, before recession in the second half brought the carnage towards the end.

Now in SG.. there are good jobs in Banks and some other big tech MNCs.. Total about a few thousands...

That's very few for a lot of graduates and job hoppers...

Anyway what suggestion do you offer to generate jobs?

I have said all along that the government is clueless about how to generate enough high value jobs for the citizens. Even the high value ones are slowing becoming low value. I have heard stories of how foreign IT university graduates are hired by some third world foreign banks for $1500 per month. This is despite the starting pay for graduates is already around $2000 per month 10 years ago.

The ultimate insult is that Sinkies are willing to take it up their arses and allow the ministers to pay themselves obscene salaries. It wouldn't have been so bad otherwise. :oIo:

Fucking sell country Makapaa. What is new? Singaporeans have always shunned this "tough" job. You want the companies to pay you $1 million a year to do this job is it?

I am amazed how our gahmen fucks its own citizen everytime I am in MBS.
Good jobs like pit supervisors & even pit bosses are mostly FT... okay if they were Las Vegas angmohs as they probably has more feathers in their caps. BUT I see Phillipinos doing jobs which eventually must be given to Singies.. whose upwards mobility will be forever blocked by these pinoys n pinays who will never let go such cosy n well-paid jobs!
Okay if MBS argued that Singies are not qualified yet.......... What about cosy cashier jobs done by pinays? Hostess & PR jobs too?
We do NS, pay much taxes, etc only to have the cherry jobs plucked under our noses with gahmen doing NOTHING except collecting casino entrance levy! As long as levies are collected, they fcuk care???

Which fucking country in the world would discriminate it's own citizen like that?

And even that 3 out of 10 jobs are not all for Singaporean. They have to mix in PRs to make it looks bearable. Bloody hell to this current PAP government.

U're actually jealous of Bangalah getting Bangalah jobs?

Coincidentally I was checking up on the latest stats. current unemployed = 64,700(2.1% unemployment rate of 3,075,500(SG Workforce - info from Singstat))

Number of Jobs taken up by locals according to that article 64,700

7 in 10 jobs goes to foreigners...

then 3 in 10 jobs goes to Sg and PR....then in actualty, only 1 in 10 jobs goes to Sg while 2 in 10 goes to PR...

Singaporeans r screwed upside down, they only get 10% of the jobs....no wonder why so many locals r jobless....

Which bright idea is it to include PR as local...? Their brains r not working? Which country in the world considered PR as a local?

if you want to talk about USA ...then im going to talk about japan too !!.

if you go to japan you will be surprise that most of the construction workers are japanese ...even the road sweepers ..why ? because japanese construction workers ( we called it power jobs ) are paid at least sin$5000 a month but workers from third world countries will get less then sin$4000 .

it is not the question of you want or you dont want ...in order to work as a construction workers you need to be physically and mentally fit .not everyone can do it . many of them quit after few years . thats why no japanese woman will look down on construction workers . you can always see beautiful japanese meis meis with handsome construction workers or even big truck drivers .

over in japan , waiters salary starts at sin$2500 a month at least . :rolleyes:

Define "service sector". Banking is service or not? Or Geylang street walker count as service? You sure sinkies don't want the job? Or is it the pay too low we cannot take? Please don't play with words. We can see many ah nehs in banks, pinoys in IT, fuck even in construction there are white collar jobs like valuer!
