Eileen Xie: PM, do we have minimum wage like they have in Germany? Do we have as much land and resources as Germany? Have you checked out the proportion of foreigners in Germany vs the proportion here in Singapore? You know how reliable and comfortable their public transport is right? If you put all these together, i think you should be counting your lucky stars that you are still in office now. Singaporeans are a nice tolerant lot you know. So tolerant that it's quite amazing how much you guys managed to push the boundaries without being booted out last May. Learn to be grateful.yar?

Terry Finance Sir, let me offer you a personal encounter. My company recently advertised for a position looking for a Product Manager with minimun 5 years of experience. We received 200 ++ resumes, out of which 60% were foreigners, from Philippines, China, Malaysia and the rest were from Singaporean.

Out of these 200++ resumes, there were two resumes which stood out. One was a Singaporean guy in his late 30s with 8 years of experience and his expected salary was $6,500 which to me is reasonable and another was a Phillippinoe guy in his late 20s with 6 years of experience and his expected salary was $3,000(negotiable). Let me asked you if i were to present these two resumes to my boss, which one do you think he will have chosen? So as a true blue Singaporean, i trashed the 'foreign talent' resume. I might be what some people call "not professional" but as a Singaporean i feel it is only right that a job should always go to a Singaporean with relavant skills and reasonable expectation FIRST and never to a foreigner.

Singapore is the home i grew up in, the place i was once immensely proud of. I hate to see where we r headed. Sir, i wish you can hear the tiny voices of people who are struggling and for once balance ecomony prosperity with Singaporean well being. A country without happy and loyal citizens is a country in demise.

Finally i would like to clarify that i gladly welcome aunthentic foreign talents that can propel our economy to the next level but for foreigners here to take advantage of our much too liberal immigration policy,NOT A CHANCE.

Poor small lee, the more the pinoy & prc loved him, the more it show he has forgotten who he is supposedly "servant" of.

LHL seem to have become like Lt. Colonel Nicholson in the film "Bridge over river kwai", obsessed with his bridge(to FTdom) that he turns against the Allied(Sinkees) infavour of his Japanese (PRC?) captors?

Did the same months ago when I indicate "Native Speakers Only" and this pinoy pest got the cheek to come to my office and ask my staff why she did not hear anything from us. Fucking problem with these pinoy parasites is they think the whole world owe them something. I politely told her over the phone that the job requires English native speakers and she thick skin enough to say she is an English Native speaker. I told her tagalog is her native language and not English.
 
Just because Pinoys speak half past six English, they expect to be treated equally as the Britons or Yanks. I can say I am as creative as Samsung or Sony in product development cos I am Asian?
 
Why are.they still payimg third world salaries in first world economy

Why top MIWs get paid many times than the developed angmo countries counterparts?

Dont you see the huge and wide disparity in wages?

So sickening!

How I wish some brave soul would go and ask him does Angela Merkel draw his kind of obscene salary? And does Angela's spouse
get appointed to look after the nation's investment vehicle and get paid up to an amount of $12m - $18m per annum?
