The most scary part is that the 2.3 million are rapidly aging !!!

Hence, the necessity to import younger PRCs to become our citizens and PRs.:eek:

Relationship between the combat video and population statistics :confused:

actually i wanted to use the song to relate the mass entry of FTs into SGP and the mass exit and the dwindling of Sinkies population....the video has no relevance...

Wow only 51% now? Are you really sure? How many are living overseas now? I remember the time back in early 90s when the population was 2.7million and Singaporeans made up 90% of the population. I really fear the time when we become insignificant that every policies Singapore take must involve foreigners participation. This is mass extermination of the Singaporean identity. Let us reverse it before it is too late.

Hey, but but... according to the government, Prs are considered Singaporeans. Such being the case, singaporeans shoud be 3/4.5 = 66%. The papaya gahment will then combine some other FTs on long social visit pass and bullshit they are also Singaproeans to make the figure higher. :(

90% to 51%, scary isn't it? Now do you see why the papayas are so insecured with people migrating? The only way out is get out of Sinkeeland while you still can. :eek:

It’s not difficult to answer why Singaporeans find it so easy to leave this place for greener pastures. The No 1 reason is because for most of us the roots don’t grow very deep. We are just Singaporeans in name only, like me, most of my friends don’t place much value in our citizenship.
We look around us and see all the privileges handed out to foreigners on silver platters on a regular basis and wonder what is it we serve National Service for.
Singapore is run like a corporation, hell, even our politicians are paid like CEOs, so can you blame the people for feeling like they are employees rather than citizens.
Most of us just feel like a small employee in a large corporation. So is it any wonder that people leave at the prospect of a better life, a better job somewhere else.
It’s difficult to expect loyalty from the people if the country doesn’t seem to place much loyalty in us. For all the talk of nationhood, its hard to feel patriotism when foreigners (foreign talents) always seem to get preferential treatment over us - whether real or perceived.
As citizens, we don’t sense much ownership in the country, everything is decided for us, even our so-called “elected” President. How to grow roots when your life, your destiny is seemingly out of your hands.
So for many people, they would rather move out since at least it does empower them somewhat - having the power to at least for once decide their own fate rather than like the government decide it for them.

about 125,000 gave up their passports last yearto migrate overseas to search for greener pastures. 400,000 singaporeans work overseas. we’re seeing more doctors, lawyers, it professionals, accountants, leaving singapore. if the country doesn’t value us, we’ll find another place who will..

ps. the figures come from a friend with credible source.

will you give up yours?

guy2100- the figure seems to tally 2.7m -2.3m= 0.4m (overseas?)

I wont be surprise if Lao Lee kept a huge portion of SINGAPOREAN $$ else where in case if PAP falls, he will take the first plane elsewhere, escorted by 2 F15s.


Those who are left behind are FUCKED to the core by that time.

Many have gone elsewhere to search for a better life, like me. Not that I dont like singapore, but the way the country is run, you need no genuis to figure it out, what will happen in the end. Not about quitter or stayer crap, but to do something meaningful and find a purpose in life, unless your life is about support the PAP and licking their balls for easy access to $$$, and comfortable life, which will come to end someday, then they will find that they have no backbones to stand on their own.

Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place (Such a lovely place)
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year (Any time of year)
You can find it here

Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place (Such a lovely place)
Such a lovely face
They livin' it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise)
Bring your alibis

Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
'Relax,' said the night man,
'We are programmed to receive.
You can check-out any time you like,
But you can never leave!'

Must eventually check out of this hotel. Getting too expensive & how else you gonna get your CPF out?
