Is Dependable Pass being abused?

Here is the news report:
Graphic designer Nandita Gupta, 30, who moved from India with her husband in 2010, said she faced difficulties looking for a job despite being on a Dependant's Pass - where a spouse can obtain a letter of consent from the Manpower Ministry for them to be employed. "Most of the job advertisements say they want either Singaporeans or Permanent Residents. That works against us."

What is the purpose of issuing Dependable Pass if the holder is here to compete with sinkies for jobs? Is a graphic designer as skilful as a doctor or scientist who can help sinkie land to advance? Isn't it time to revoke Dependable Pass to save jobs for natives?

FT are clearly abusing Dependable Pass to flood into sinkie land to compete for jobs with the natives. Get one FT in, he will bring economic refugees into this land by way of Dependable Pass for other family members. No wonder there are FT everywhere in sinkie land.

Let FTs enjoy PR benefits and yet they can trumpet PRs approvals down....
Win win situation for both parties.....sinkies lose.

This is ridiculous.

Bring in 1 ah neh, and along comes the whole village to compete for jobs with the locals. Dependent pass should fuck off and stay at home.

Dependant pass employees not limited to foreign worker's quota or levy.
No need contribute cpf too.
More 'attractive' for employers.

Dear Blindswordsman:

1. Reason there is Dependant's Pass is so that family members like spouse and children can need not be living apart because one member of the familiy is working overseas.

2. Apart from service industry, there are only two reasons a person is employed by profit organisations - either to make money for the employers, or to help them save money. Personally, I see the nationality of the employee is a secondary consideration in this matter.

Help Sinkie land advance? Good luck, keep trying.

Cheers!

A classic case of one FT Pariah and bringing his whole entourage together with him to Sinkie Land..

Maybe Mrs Gupta should try seek employment at Desker Rd as part of the service industry..

And NO levy too. Parents can come as DP also.

Don't know how many thousands of EPs and their DPs (x3 at least) are now in Singapore, all without quota.

Yes no levy. And not subject to foreign worker quota.
Spouse, parents and kids all can get this pass.
Now even got the DP+....valid for 3 years and can find work in instant.
Huat for foreigners.

That is the loop hole our MOM knowingly and unknowingly expose.

No levy imposed and no need quota. Singapore's SME and MNC bosses love them, absolutely.
