<!-- end of media lightbox //-->INTEGRATION is not a unique task facing Singapore but society here can take heart that it is occurring here in an environment that is upwardly mobile.
"People who started out very poor became middle-income and many more from the lowest ranks of society have made it in life through the Singapore system via education,"
=> Hence the justification to give free scholarships to 3rd world foreigners to study free in SG while SGs have to borrow from banks to study? Hence the justification for 3rd world foreigners to skip NS despite the freebies while SGs have to serve NS to protect them and tolerate their verbal and physical attacks after that?
said Deputy Prime Minister Tharman Shanmugaratnam yesterday at an event to promote diversity in the Indian community here.
=> Force Indian SGs to accept Indian FTrash?
"That is our biggest challenge - how do we keep it a society where people can look towards something better in the future regardless of their starting point," said Mr Tharman.
He was the guest of honour at the event organised jointly by tabla! and Tamil Murasu, two newspapers published by Singapore Press Holdings (SPH).
