I don't see the govt matching their words with actions.

Firstly all civil service and GLC are academic conscious. Not only are they particular about a person's paper qualification, the university u come from also matters. It operate like a keleng caste system, highest the scholar caste, local graduate caste, overseas graduate caste and the lowest off-shore degree caste.

Secondly they are saying there isn't enough executive jobs to support the number of graduates. Then why are they still importing foreigners with degree to compete with sinkies graduates for jobs?

Third none of the ministers and MPs set an example by sending their children to places like ITE or poly. How to convince the peasants?

The order is like this

English IVY League University (rank 1)
American IVY league ( Rank 2 )
AH NEH Dubious University ( Rank 3)
NUS NTU (Rank 5 )
SIM ( Rank 4 )

I have seen the job ads of a certain ministry (not going to specify which one) remove certain wordings specifying a preference for honours graduates. It happened shortly after the National Day Rally speech this year.

Whether that translates to a meaningful shift in policies for hiring and pay scale, remains to be seen.

You know that paper qualifications matter less when employers don't care if you graduated from NUS or some university in Manila or Chennai. So what if you are from RI or Chinese High? Employers care even less about those so-called elite schools. They only care if you can do the job for a cheaper price.
