Singapore PRC PR Zhang Yuanyuan flashed NRIC on Chinese TV and proclaimed loyalty to China publicly
From our Correspondent with tip-off from Ho H K
A Chinese national and Singapore Permanent Resident by the name of Zhang Yuanyuan
humiliated Singapore publicly on China’s CCTV by flashing her NRIC on the screen and subsequently declared her undivided loyalty to her motherland, China!
Ms Zhang was the only overseas returnee in the formation and has intrigued the media because she chose not only to return home, but to also take up the tough regimen as part of the parade.
She came to Singapore to study and work in 2003, and got her blue Singapore PR identity card two years later.
Despite a job with a multi-national company, which reportedly
paid her some $4,000 a month, she returned to Beijing last year and worked in a state-owned enterprise.
Months later, she heard about the chance to be part of the women’s militia contingent during a recruitment drive, she jumped at it.
When asked by CCTV Channel 7 reporters why returned to Beijing, she proclaimed with a wide smile on screen that
“repaying the motherland is her greatest wish!”
We were alerted to Miss Zhang’s CCTV interview by an angry Singaporean Ho H K who complained:
“I happened to view this clip on Youtube and I got the biggest shock of my life when I reach 1min 05sec of the clip! It proudly displays a PRC woman by the name of Zhang Yuanyuan denouncing her Spore pink IC & return to China to work & participate in PRC’s 60th National Day celebrations. With the opening of the floodgate for the foreigners, I seriously wonder if there’s a small fraction of possibility that I will trust them in times of national crisis.”
Ever since the Singapore government open the floodgates to increase the population through immigration, large numbers of Chinese nationals have flocked to study, work and live in Singapore.
Though they are encourage to take up PRs and citizenships, not many of them choose to settle down in Singapore especially with the growing strength of the Chinese economy.
Unlike a few years ago, China is more prosperous than before. Certain cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou have a living standard which is comparable to Singapore.
Ms Zhang, who benefitted from a Singapore education, will be highly sought after in China due to her English proficiency. It is not surprising that she has decided to return to China.
The ruling party has come under increasing criticism from the disgruntled citizens for “mass importing” China internationals including athletes to represent Singapore in international competitions.
During the Beijing Olympics games last year, Singapore’s Li Jiawei, who was born in China, caused a stir when she swept the Singapore flag on the ground when marching as head of the Singapore contingent:
