PAP admits more foreigners are here to displace Sinkies.Vote the fuckers out.
- Thread starter A Singaporean
- Start date
These FTs will create good jobs, contribute good genes unlike the useless low SES sinkies.
The Football Association of S'pore made similar claims about the benefits of foreign footballers in our S-League decades ago when 5 non-S'poreans could be in the team of 11 players. They were supposed to be under the foreign talent scheme to lift the standard of the clubs, transfer their skills to local players and have a positive impact on the local league and national team. None of that materialised.

SINGAPORE: For the first time, Singapore’s total population has exceeded six million, mainly due to the growth in the non-resident population.
As of June this year, the country’s population stood at 6.04 million, a 2 per cent increase from last year.
The figures were published on Tuesday (Sep 24) in the annual Population in Brief report by the National Population and Talent Division (NPTD) of the Prime Minister’s Office and its partner agencies.
Of the 6.04 million, there were 4.18 million residents and about 1.86 million non-residents, which comprise the foreign workforce, migrant domestic workers, dependants and international students.
According to the report, the non-resident population jumped by about 5 per cent from last year. The increase was seen across most pass types, with work permit holders contributing most to the increase (44 per cent of non-resident population), followed by migrant domestic workers (15 per cent of non-resident population).
“The (non-resident) population is diverse, and its size and composition fluctuate depending on our economic and social needs,” read the report.
“As Singapore is fundamentally labour constrained, the foreign workforce complements our local workforce and allows companies to access a broader range of skills from the global labour pool.”
The report also showed that the annualised population growth rate over the last five years (2019 to 2024) was slightly higher than in the preceding five-year period (2014 to 2019).
This was mostly due to post-COVID growth in the number of work permit holders in the construction, marine shipyard and process (CMP) sectors as companies set about catching up on projects that were delayed by the COVID-19 pandemic, the report said.
NPTD said Singapore residents continue to fill higher-paying jobs, with resident employment growing in sectors such as financial and insurance services, information and communications, and professional services.
SINGAPORE’S TOTAL POPULATION LIKELY TO BE "SIGNIFICANTLY" BELOW 6.9 MILLION BY 2030: NTPD
It also reiterated that Singapore’s total population is likely to be "significantly" below 6.9 million by 2030, making reference to a figure that had been included in a Population White Paper released in 2013.
NPTD had said in the white paper that the country's total population could range between 6.5 million to 6.9 million by 2030. This sparked a public outcry and the government said it was a not a forecast or target, but for planning purposes.
At last year's Committee of Supply debate, Minister in the Prime Minister's Office Indranee Rajah said in planning for the future, the government has to consider what the country's future population will look like, not just in terms of size but also composition and make-up.
This, she said, is contingent on many factors including various demographic trends, such as birth rates, life expectancies, and migration, as well as future social and economic needs.
As such, the government does not plan on a single population planning parameter, she said.
Instead, various scenarios are developed to stress-test assumptions and allow for a range of possible outcomes.
NPTD said on Tuesday that based on these various scenarios, the planning parameter of 6.9 million remains relevant for the 2030s.
The Ministry of Manpower’s (MOM) latest quarterly labour market report, which was published on Sep 17, showed that Singapore’s resident labour force participation rate stood at 68.6 per cent for those aged 15 and over.
This is higher than all but four member countries of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD): Iceland, New Zealand, Netherlands and Switzerland.
MOM's report had also recorded improvements in unemployment rates among residents and citizens in June (2.0 per cent overall, 2.7 per cent for residents and 2.8 per cent for citizens). The resident long-term unemployment rate stayed low at 0.8 per cent.
This is the first time the country’s population has exceeded six million.

Fictional book
As I cannot imagine any Singaporeans to be fighting to enable and to allow MIWs and cronies and crassloot leechers to tiew and kann and fuck us all
That Malaysia despite having corrupt politicians there, and having to support sultans and royal families , and to support malays there, the cost of living of Malaysia is only a third to a quarter of Stinkapore under MIWs and cronies and crassloot leechers
This show MIWs and cronies and crassloot leechers tiewing and kanning and fucking Singaporeans 3 to 4 times what corrupt malay politicans and malaysian royal families and malays there are feeding from Malaysian economy
DO YOU STILL FEEL LIKE FIGHTING FOR MIWS TO CONTINUE TO TIEW AND KANN AND FUCK US ALL?
Almost exactly 17 years ago, this happened:
So... an increase of around 860k FTs ('non-residents', 'foreigners') in 17 years.
The number probably goes way higher if you include the PRs and the newly minted Sinkies whom the PAP technocrats love to do photo ops with at citizenship ceremonies.
