SINGAPORE: There were 1,331,600 foreigners working in Singapore as of December 2013, Manpower Minister Tan Chuan-Jin told Parliament on Tuesday (Aug 5).
In a written response, Mr Tan said that excluding about 224,500 foreign domestic workers, there were 1,107,100 foreigners employed across different sectors in Singapore. He added that the breakdown by nationality is not publicly available.
In addition, the minister said the construction and food and beverage (F&B) industries are on the list of the top 10 sectors employing the most number of foreigners as of December 2013.

Why not?

All nationalities are pooled together, just like the monies managed by GIC. :wink:

Maybe the breakdown by nationality is available but it would be quite uncomfortable to reveal it to the public. :wink:

...if only 20% of those foreigners would leave and let the unemployed sinkies take over. Don't say sinkies do not want their jobs. It is because sinkies do not have the chance to get the same jobs held by the foreigners.

Foreigners are known to hang on to staying in sinkieland even when jobless and refusing to leave until kicked out. They know paps love foreigners and won’t kick them out even though when they have committed crimes.

So the number of foreigners hanging on in sinkieland is higher than figure given by paps.

The question now is how many foreigners with criminal records in their countries are roaming free in sinkieland out of those 1.7 million revealed by paps?

Were they screened before and after their arrival in sinkieland? Sekali some of them are criminals dumped by their Govts to get rid of them in the homeland.

Another 1.2 million foreigners are dependents! Foreigners make up 45 percent of our population! Add in the naturalized citizens, we have a split of 50:50. I don't consider naturalized citizens as sinkees. Unlike other countries where it take years to qualify for citizenship, the PAP gives it out freely as toilet paper. AStar scholarships holders don't even have to become PR before getting citizenships!
