Just saw this in the forum. Is it getting out of hand?
By: Anonymous
I am currently in my final year of studies at NUS and have been doing alright. This is until about a year and a half ago when I contacted HIV from an ASEAN scholar after a session of gay sex.
This is a difficult dilemma which I need to talk about but cannot seem to bring myself to do it because of the negative reaction that may surface.
My life is more or less screwed anyway so I thought I would just highlight the ills of having too many foreigners without any quality control.
The PAP governement just won't listen and this has an adverse effect on our local born citizens. My example proves this and I would thus like to share it via the alternative media.
My reaction was very shocked when I read the white paper just two and a half weeks ago. I used to be okay with them until one of these foreigners ruined my life.
There was this guy from Vietnam who came to singapore in 2005 on an ASEAN scholarship. He studied at ACS (Independent) before matriculating into NUS and is now doing a degree in Chemical Engineering.
In fact, he has become so assimilated to our local culture that he has picked a pseudonym for himself within the gay community that sounds more local.
After the test results proved positive, I was really afraid and started asking around. It was only then that I reaslied a handful of people have also gotten HIV from him. This includes some people from the NUS dragonboating team where he used to be a member (I don't know now).
I am really at a loss now and I hope that the social media will expose what he has done to our citizens despite living off taxpayers' money for the past 8 years. I estimate that this costs at least $150,000.
Please be careful of this and I hope that enough attention can be brought forward so that the daft authorities can finally act on it. In addition, Singaporeans would also have a clearer picture on the ills of foreigners.
Editor's Note: We have already forwarded this email from our reader to NUS for clarification. Although individuals should also be taking necessary care to protect themselves, it is sad to see problems such as these being brought into Singapore by foreigners. Perhaps more thorough health screenings should take place before foreigners are awarded scholarships or work permits.
We have published this article to warn others to take care and also to try and raise awareness to those out there that are affected in some way by diseases such as HIV. You are not alone, and should not be ashamed to seek help. If you reach out, you may even inspire others to do the same and help to ease their anxieties too.
We have removed the names of all parties involved in order to avoid complicating the situation. Knowingly spreading HIV is a crime, and so we leave the case with NUS and police for their investigations should they choose to investigate the issue.
