STOMPer Sadroid spotted an ad calling specifically for Filipino workers while in a separate incident, Bobi noted that even camp defences were built by foreign workers.

STOMPer Sadroid commented:

"A friend of mine looking for a job came across this ad.

"Jobs which normally go to locals have now been slowly given away to foreigners.

"There is no point in blaming foreigners as the go ahead has been given by the authorities to replace us.

"Employers are now blatantly looking for foreigners and now ignore locals.

"What's next guys?"

STOMPer Bobi spotted two foreigners working on this barbed wire fence and wrote:

"I spotted these two foreigners working yesterday (Jul 10) on a fence at the School of Combat Engineers in Jurong.

"Now even our camp's defences are built by foreign workers.

"Aren't army camps supposed to be restricted areas? Will Singapore also go to war using foreigners in future?"

The STOMPer wrote:

"The picture was taken on Aug 15 at about 7.50am. I had to wait for the fourth MRT train.

"The situation is worse than last time when I had direct MRT trains from Sembawang to Pasir Ris without having to change at Jurong station.

"Double crowds had formed left and right of the trains at Jurong MRT station.

"Even up to today, the situation is not improving much!"
