The FT is good mantra is being sung daily. FT good, FT is indispensable, FT is our saviour. If we keep on singing this mantra, soon we will have nightmares on FTs. We are not talking about the natural movement of people across borders to work and play. This trend has been going on for ages without much of a hiccup except in racist countries when some people of different colours are barred.
Today we are faced with a different kind of problem, a conscious and meticulous design to flood the country with foreigners, claiming that without them the country will not be able to continue to grow at a rapid pace. This calling for more and more foreigners is getting to a point of madness. Of course the madmen would not admit that it is madness.
With all due respect to all the super great FTs in our shores and those who were appointed to high offices due to their merits, I would like to ask a simple question, ¡®Can an organisation be run just as efficiently with a Singaporean in charge instead of a FT?¡¯
Take the case of the Health Ministry, would the health services collapse, or all systems failed to work if a Singaporean is made the Health Minister? Or would DBS do less well if it was not managed by FTs? Stretch this further, will those govt ministries or GLCs be worst than what they are today if Singaporeans were to be in charge instead of FTs? If the answer is yes, then we better bring in more foreigners quickly.
If the answer is no, that these organisations will just run as before, could be better, then someone must be lying through the skin of his teeth. I bet there are many Singaporeans that are worthy to feel these positions. These are high value positions need not necessarily go to FTs if Singaporeans can do the job equally well. If Singaporeans cannot do them, we have a very serious problem in paying super salary to super local talents. They must be all overpaid, all rubbish, that they can¡¯t do these jobs and only foreigners can.
Am I talking rubbish or the people are being fed with rubbish? We have thousands of our best talents trained locally and in the best universities overseas, and all proven to be duds. Believe me, it is true. That is why the panic button is pressed for more FTs.

The real motive for the relentless import of FTrash is to overwhelm Sporns, so that the LCB can perpetuate his 1 Familee's rule. The no. of voters in the last GE is 2.15M and that for the upcoming one is 2.35M. Where does the 10% increase come from? The New Shityzens! Now you understand why Ass Loon is so confident of winning again? Cos the swing in votes against the FAPee TRAITORS will be more than offset by the New Shityzens' support! Shityzens who have not served a day of NS and given free scholarships, priority to jobs, even housing, etc! Hence the very genuine need for ALL SPORNS to stand together this time and make every vote counts to turn the tide against the FAPee TRAITORS - DECISIVELY! To secure the future for our next generation! If the FAPee TRAITORS win again this time, expect them to give PeeRs voting power in the next GE, which means that Sporns will be well on their way to extinction! Take your pick, SPORNS!

The issues are more to the bottom of the pyramid. Anyway, they will not stay in Singapore for long. They will harvest as long as there is crops. They are really not the threat. The position from middle layers down to the bottom can be effectively run & serviced by local Singaporean with wages that offsets the inflation & rising standard of living. The false economy built up by PAP should be under controlled. This mistake has already taken place, no point trying to set it right as it would have a catatrophic effect & create a financial vacuum. We cannot allow the bubble to burst but stop pumping in more air into it. The budget has to be set-aside solely for this purpose & have to bring in a mechanism to calculate the minimum wages. This is the yard-stick to balance the current average house-hold expenses. Ministers & civil servants up to grade X must be prepared for wage freeze. The current unemployment & temp workers must be in full-time employment. Create more jobs; jobs that were unfavourable by most Singaporeans must be lured with salaries that are commendable & trained to use the latest machineries & equipments. Send the lower-skilled foreign workers back & employ local Singaporeans to the current higher wages. Companies must adhere to the current working laws & less or zero reliance on cheap foreign workers.
