Until Singapore sends all it's slave labour home, I will continue to brand the whole country a bunch of uncivilised pricks.
And I thought I was radical! I cannot plus rep you anymore but I came to the same conclusion.
1) To ensure the lower rungs of society can survive and live with dignity, we have to drastically reduce dependency on foreign workers (FWs) for our blue collar workforce.
2) To alleviate structural employment of PMETs and promote re-employment into the workforce, drastically reduce the number of PRs and workpass holders and target a reduction in foreign workforce over time.
However the real resistance will come from ordinary Singaporeans, the same ones who rant against the PAP as the lifestyles they know would be compromised. However please do not forget it was the PAP who brought in the Trojan Horse, and since there isn't any unhappy people demonstrating in the streets all must be well, says the 60.1%. Ordinary people going about their lives everyday have no idea how bad things are until they eventually fall into one of the two groups highlighted above.
So Leongsam, besides the "greedy and complacent" Singaporean whiner who needs to be chided, "greedy and unproductive" business owners and their enablers in politics and public administration also need to be taken to task. Behaviors can be changed to a certain extent with properly targeted legislation.
