The unprecedented episode of the PRC bus drivers strike raises new questions on Singapore’s autonomy. It is a cause to wonder if the country is held hostage by foreigners.
This episode does not bode well for locals here. International media had reported the incident and foreign investors may think twice about setting up companies here now. The issue of millions of foreigners in Singapore have been shown now to bring negative impact to the country’s economical well being.
I was reading on the news on how easy it is for SMRT to give in to the demands of the drivers towards the evening. Basically tomorrow is back to normal, but this greatly empower them to demand for more in the future if they want to. Basically, Singapore is held hostage by them. If they want to stop Singapore, they actually have the capability to do so.
If you all have stop and consider that the potential threat the foreigners actually pose to Singapore stability, it is actually quite substantial. Foreigners have the advantage in that they can actually leave Singapore quite easily if they commit any crime and the chances of them being caught and deported back are slim.
Foreigners working in Singapore are hungry. They will work hard for money. This may sometimes mean sacrificing moral values if they get money. The mercenary nature is inevitable since they travel long distances to Singapore just to earn sufficient to bring back to their home country. If they are paid to to disrupt social stability in our home country, there is no way we can stop them since they can easily exit without major repercussions.
I find it is therefore essential to consider some critical areas where stability need to be ensured. Singapore vulnerable choke points, which may even lead to economic instability if they are disrupted are our transport systems, infrastructure grid, water grid and so on. Imagine the damage foreigners might cause to use if they damage any of this installations and cause major social instability, it might be impossible to repair for a long time. Especially when inter-nationalities trust are involved. This is a big concern for national social and economic security
Apparently and suspiciously following the strike episode, the website of People’s Association (PA) and other related websites was hacked by some unknown hackers who called themselves “HighTech Brazil HackTeam”.
It may be possible that it could have been done by Chinese hacking groups unhappy with Singapore;s handling of the Chinese drivers. If correct, we may be seeing the first signs of the regime being held hostage by the demands and actions of these foreigners working in essential services.
As the saying goes no one is safe from globalization and its effects and this does also apply to the regime. Global forces will eventually put a dent on the regime’s hold on to power.
