PRs must be grouped with foreign workers/FTs or be a stand-alone statistics & NOT be grouped under Locals/Singaporeans. Call a spade a spade!
Economic migrants are fluid and will flow with the breeze and go where there are ‘meals’.
We are not against foreign workers/FTs but they must not replace and displace Singaporeans like a house of cards, minus the NS/reservists obligations. Some policies are failures and misplaced. They must be corrected before Singaporeans become ‘foreigners in their own home’.
Anyone who challenges that “Singapore must be open and remain open for foreign workers/FTs” – allow me to share this with you. There are more than 200m unemployed globally and if you/we remain liberal with immigration and imported labors, we will sink. Foreign workers/FTs, go home and tell your Govt to be equally, if not more, liberal.
There are some jobs that locals avoid or we simply haven’t had enough to fill. Go ahead and import them. But, care & share: Singaporeans must get priority, say whatever you like.
