Mr Tony Tan, did you read the articles on Temasek Review posted by netizens about you? Which one says we want to totally shut off foreigners? While we did say “Singaporeans first”, we never said “Singaporeans only”! Why don’t you dare to meet our complaints head-on? Why are you twisting our words and defending yourself like a coward, not daring to confront the complaints directly?

Dr Tony Tan
There are several other local university students who had shared their frustration in the article and several others who contributed other articles. Read them carefully. We are not opposed to the presence of real foreign talents in the universities. We are opposed to foreign parasites. Most of all, we are opposed to foreigners(even if they are talented) getting more than their fair share of the country’s resources in the form of free education and paid allowances. Have they done NS? Did their parents pay taxes? The moment those students step into the country, they have been sucking in all the benefits without making sacrifices like the rest of us Native Singaporeans and they suck in more benefits than us. They are not even citizens yet. Tell me, how can you justify that as elected representatives of the people? What infuriates us the most is that some of the foreign scholars you attracted have either turned lazy spoilt by your stupid generosity in giving money away freely. Some of the foreign scholars are simply mediocre (2nd-lower honors and below), although they may have lost the scholarship near graduation like Widjaja (Asean scholar who stabbed his lecturer and then committed suicide).
PAP, your stinginess with Singaporeans is well-known throughout the land. Why is it when it comes to foreigners who never lifted a finger for the country, you behave like a drunken man splurging carelessly on his mistresses? Even the most filial son will lose loyalty to his father if he spends money freely on adopted outsider children and neglects his own flesh-and-blood.
Tony Tan, I would have respected you and forgave you readily like a filial son would to an unloving Papa if you had just apologized for your mistakes. Instead, you twisted my words and refused to recognize my complaint. I have totally lost respect for you.
I will tell all my brothers and sisters never to vote for you. If you were a father, I will disown you if I could. You never did your duty as a father.
