It was one of those dreaded MRT trips I hate taking- on a Sunday when the train is invaded by all the ‘much need and self serving’ foreign talents. But then I could not avoid this time. My journey started in Boon Lay and it was evening. Among others, a young Chinese boy in his army outfit boarded the train. My hunch was he was booking in for the week at Changi for his tekong camp. With him was his mother. What strike me was, she reminded of mothers I know of in the 70s where they followed their sons on the weekend book ins. She looked the typical housewife with a worried look in her face and handkerchief which she used to wipe her temple and that of her son periodically until the aircon in the train sufficed the sweat. 2 stops later an Indian National boarded with his family. With the typical fashion of Indian Nationals who are FT’s- he parked his pram in the middle of the train with an overgrown child in it. The FT sat beside the Army boy in a seat meant for the elderly. He was having a good time smiling and all, talking to his wife who was standing. I believe it was a family outing in a train system his country can never materialise in another 30 years. What made my heart sink was the full picture being played infront of my eyes “a national service man who by now was nodding away with insufficient sleep & beside him someone who is enjoying a train ride”. How I was wish the soldier was a FT too.

The greatest virtue this country has given us was our naivety. It took us so long to realise that we are being run over by FT’s especially the likes from India, China and the Philippines- the epitome of corrupt nations among the world. They would bring with them their culture, their own enclaves and their own people to the workforce while the 18 year old infront of my eyes was working hard to have them protected.</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>

In a sign that the PAP regime is still living in self-denial mode, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong praised foreigners for helping create more ‘good’ jobs for Singaporeans.

In a speech made at the official opening of IMFlash’s US$3 billion high tech electronics plant in Woodlands today, Prime Minister Lee claimed that six in ten of the film’s employees are ‘Singaporeans and permanent residents.’ and Singapore residents also take up two-thirds of the managerial and professional positions.

“Without the foreign workers, we would not have attracted this US$3 billion investment, and Intel and Micron would have built its wafer fab elsewhere. But by allowing in a controlled number of foreign workers, far from disadvantaging Singaporean workers, we have created more good jobs for Singaporeans,” said Mr Lee.

The statistics quoted by PM Lee are misleading because they include both Singapore citizens and PRs and hence we do not know if the film has created more jobs for Singapore citizens or foreigners.

Furthermore, given the ease in which foreigners are granted Singapore PR by the PAP regime, the majority of the film’s employees may be foreigners with only a small percentage of the jobs going to Singapore citizens.

PM Lee should reveal the exact number of Singapore citizens and foreigners, including PRs who are employed by IMFlash to substantiate his empty boast that “Singaporeans have benefitted from good jobs created by the Government’s policy of allowing in a ‘controlled’ number of foreign workers.”

It appears that PM Lee is ignoring the genuine concerns of Singaporeans at the relentless influx of foreigners and is completely out of touch with the ground.

According to a Wall Street Journal editorial in January 2010, the rapid inflow of foreigners has depressed the wages of ordinary Singaporeans, increased the cost of living, especially that of public housing and led to an overall decrease in the standard of living in Singapore.

Foreigners now make up 40 percent of Singapore’s population, up from 14 percent in 1990. Of the remaining 60 percent who are citizens, an increasing number are born overseas.

The next general election may be the last window of opportunity for native Singaporeans to reclaim ownership of their own country. The PAP’s present immigration policies are likely to continue if it forms the government again and Singaporeans will soon be relegated to being minorities in their own country of birth.



PR ARE NOT SINGAPOREANS !!!!! GOVERMENT LUMPED THEM TOGETHER AS LOCALS ??!!!</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>
