<!-- START OF : div id="storytext"--><!-- more than 4 paragraphs -->I REFER to last Tuesday's article, 'Save some skilled jobs for locals'. Labour MP Halimah Yacob asked for the foreign worker quota to be reviewed, because there are so many foreign workers even in the services sector that Singaporeans are beginning to feel squeezed out.
MP Yeo Guat Kwang urged bosses in the services sector to hire more Singaporeans, especially retrenched workers who have been retrained for such jobs.
I would like to give my take on why employers resort to having foreign workers:
It is because employers find it hard to employ locals to do menial jobs.
Jobs in the food and beverage sector are particularly shunned by Singaporeans and older workers alike because of the long hours, having to stand for long periods and shift work. They do not like to work nights, weekends and public holidays.

=> And how much are they paid? And against what kind of cost of living and greedy govt?

More often than not, Singaporeans try to dictate terms and conditions of employment during interview. Instead, foreign workers do not mind a non-air-conditioned working environment in a foodcourt or kitchen. They are not likely go absent on a whim and are ready to work hard.

=> Why leh? Cos they can live like kings/queens after they've made enuff, right?

The many foreign workers engaged by the town councils to keep our estates clean and the many foreign nurses in our restructured hospitals are examples of situations where even government entities or contractors are unable to recruit Singaporeans.
It is a misconception to believe that foreign workers are a cheaper option. 'Hidden' costs - lodging, levy and insurance - can make a foreign worker as costly as a local worker.

=> Again this SPG is looking at her own tunnel perspective without asking if the meagre pay she has the gall to dish out cos of the Papayas' pro-FTrash decree is enough for a Sporn to survive!

I am able to relate this 'hands-on' experience because my brother-in-law and sister operate three foodcourts and their numerous unsuccessful attempts to recruit Singaporeans to work and stay in jobs in their foodcourts continue to be the main setback and disruption in the daily operation of their business.

KNN, Ah Yeo and Halimah talk cock at the parliament.
You can see they cannot make decision also, but just whinning for nothing!

if their boss can tweak the rule to employ FTs a little bit difficult, Ah Hoon's brothers will have no choice but to employ locals.

Its greed .
The bitch Hoon knows 44 hours a week? Sinkapore is home to locals but hotel for FTs, two years later they can build bunglaows at home!! Fcck the bitch Hoon!!

The real problem is the lax labour laws for employing foreign trashes for office positions in the lower and middle rung management jobs which many s'poreans can do more competently although they may ask for slightly higher salaries.
