<!-- START OF : div id="storytext"--><!-- more than 4 paragraphs -->I refer to last Sunday's article, 'Tough life for 'study mamas''.
While I can understand the difficulties faced by study mamas, it is ultimately their decision to let their children study in Singapore, so they cannot blame anyone if they are unable to cope with the high cost of living.
It is estimated that a study mama would require one million yuan (S$208,800) for living and education expenses if her child were to study here from Primary 1 to Secondary 4.
As a result, some of them resort to vice or come up with ways to save money, for example, living on overcrowded premises with their children. Ultimately, it's the children who suffer if their parents are unable to cope with the costs.
Two years ago, there was an uproar when news broke about China study mamas resorting to 'borrowing' children to fake their status in order to work in Singapore.
Before that, we had study mamas who turned to prostitution and worked in sleazy massage parlours. There are also those who register with matchmaking agencies to find Singapore men.
It is a worrying situation.
The Ministry of Education (MOE) and the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA) have not been very stringent in their criteria when allowing children from China to enrol in government schools, and letting their mothers accompany them during their studies here. Many of these study mamas are not qualified to work here as they have no proper education or relevant working experience.
When I was working in MOE as a temporary customer service executive, one of the top queries from study mamas was whether their sons could avoid national service if the boys chose to study in Singapore.
I find their attitude of wanting their sons to avoid national service, yet be able to enjoy privileges, a form of disrespect.

=> Till the 66% coolie rice bowlers learn self-respect during the elections, there's no reason for FTrash to show them respect!

Even foreign domestic maids are, through their agents, subjected to background checks and required to go through relevant training.
Then, there are the levies that employers have to pay. Should the maid get herself pregnant, the employer will lose the security bond he has posted.
Yet China study mamas and their children have been able to come to Singapore with relative ease.
Perhaps it is time for ICA to impose stricter criteria to assess that each applicant has the financial means to stay on in Singapore. A person with a comfortable income is less likely to resort to vice and other criminal activities.
By not imposing stringent requirements, we are indirectly allowing the child to suffer if the parent is unable to provide for him or her financially. Edmund Lin

 

[Man in the streets]

If ICA listens to edmund lin, then PAP's genocide against the local sporns cannot be complete asap before old fart keels over.

old fart would want to see the local sporns get to their knees before FT trashs to get coolie rice, so asshole loong can rule for life.

Why am I not surprised. Non of my foreign friends want their sons to serve NS. One of them owns a successful American restaurant chain and said to me that she rather send her child to a boarding school in the US than waste his time here serving in the army here.

National Service is only for the privilege Singapore born males!. Members have its privileges!.

It is also a life sentence commuted to every Singapore males, who have the privilege to be born here!.

Every Singapore born male should feel privileged!

Fuck PRC!! Car,tothpaste,hygiene all cannot make it!! some more now got tainted milk & veggie...Bush or india or russia shld do human race a favor by nuking PRC!

 

[Cestbon]

PRC very patrotict and they will not serve other country in army.
What the hell MOE doing letting their children study here. Many PDMM ending up working in massage centre or TuiNA.
MOE should tighten the law or make adjustment.
1. Deposit bond $20K/PDMM if eg. working in TuiNa will be confiscated or any illegal activities only be giving back upon departure.
2. $50K/child in bank only can be use for Education FEE. Others than that not allow to withdraw.
That will filter out many fake PDMM because initial deposit $70K. Only real rich PDMM will able to afford that money.

The PDMM scheme is the most retarded and misguided schooling policy in the world!! Which country in the world gives scholarships to 7 year olds and then allow their mothers to tag along?? How can you tell if this kid can become a good citizen so early on?? Or even remain loyal to your country??

It's just a remnant of LKYs ridiculous eugenics policy - he thinks are china genes are better, full stop. So letting these studious kids in will improve our genetic stock! No consideration for social or personal factors of how a person develops!
