I meet more and more FTs now since their population has been surging. However when I check with them on their job profiles, I find that they r doing ordinary admin jobs..etc secretary, general admin, procurement, HR....etc. I always wondered why they cannot find suitable locals for these kind of common jobs?? Something is very wrong here!

First the MIW said sinkees don't like hard manual labour jobs in construction and marine indusries.
Now the MIW said sinkees are not qualified for white collar office jobs.
Then the MIW asked sinkees to go to e2i for retraining and upgrading but no jobs after the courses.
What can we say to the MIW ? KNNCCB !
Congratulations ! Celebrations coming !

PAP has educated sinkies so well that many of them find it demeaning to do admin work. Those few sinkies who want these sort of jobs are sinkies who do badly in school and barely qualify for such jobs. On the rare occasions that they do, it is still better to hire a foreigner with a uni degree than a local with a poly diploma or some shitty private uni degree.

another FTA requirement?

More to do with corporate "manoeuvres" (than legislation). Even Europe's gone to places like Budapest

That's a short sighted view, on western (and eastern) Europe. Budapest's growth is due to outsourcing

IN a nondescript Soviet-era building in a suburb of Estonia's capital, Tallinn, is one of the telecommunications world's most important research outfits. It is the development centre for Skype, a software product that allows free, or very cheap, phone calls from any internet-connected computer. Skype is a global company recently bought by eBay, an internet auction site, for $2.6 billion. Its Scandinavian founders used programmers not from pricey Silicon Valley or faraway India, but from a small east European country that has barely figured on the business landscape in software, or anything else.

Sinkies shouldn't waste money on tuition for their kids. Just send them to pinoyland or rapists land for degrees then come back to earn in sg dollars.

Yeah I also think so but the children may hate the parents for it.

Yesterday I watched channel 8 has a programme promoting e2i. Lots of propaganda shows nowadays.
