Almost Singaporean
http://www.straitstimes.com/print/BreakingNews/Singapore/Story/STIStory_507289.html

THREE-YEAR-OLD Prateek Garg once smacked his Chinese playmate for calling him Indian. 'I'm Singaporean!' bawled the child, whose favourite food is chicken rice.

His mum, training and development manager Shweta Garg, 30, came to Singapore from India in 2004. Dad Vishal Garg, 32, is an assistant vice-president at Barclays Capital. They are permanent residents (PRs) here.

Having picked up the Singaporean kiasu (afraid to lose) trait, the Gargs moved to a Marine Parade condominium to improve Prateek's chances of getting into nearby Tao Nan School or Ngee Ann Primary School.

But a slew of recent changes to favour citizens over PRs means they get one fewer ballot than citizens for places in popular schools.

'I totally agree that Singaporeans must be given a privilege, but we are doing our part for the country and giving back to it,' said Mrs Garg, about the recent changes that range from public housing to education and health care.

'If my son can't get into a good school because of the balloting, what do I tell him? That it was because you are not Singaporean?'

Today's Insight asks PRs what they feel about the recent changes, and whether they are now encouraged to sink roots here or seek greener pastures elsewhere.

Why did not the 154th question how these FTrash get their jobs that Sporns are more than able to do?

Fuck Yes! Did you parents help build Singapore during the turbulent years of the 60's? Did your husband serve national service? Why the fuck do you think you should enjoy these benefits?? You come here to steal our jobs and you fucking want to rob our children too?!

THIS IS BULLSHIT! Fuck ST! Fuck PAP!

PR are nothing but tourist with a immigration speed pass. A foreigner can get PR within 2 months of touching down in Singapore!

FUCK YOU! FUCK YOU! FUCK YOU and your Ah Ney husband and son!

SPH has a lot of PRs working as PAP's dogs. Don't be surprised such report came from PR writer and there is truly a conflict of interest for writing such divisive report in favour of the writer's himself/herself.

Re: This is what u get for your buck if you bought Shit Times

That gave us every reason to hate these people. If they truly think they deserve on equal footing with Singaporeans, than lets check out why they still want to remain PR and not take up the pink IC. They cannot on one hand wanted all the priviledges in this island and on the other claimed Singapore is not their ideal home because their loyalty is somewhere else.

To hell with them. NOT happy, go back to india. see their smiling stupid face that begs to be slapped.:oIo::oIo::oIo:
