[h=2]Pinoy FT sneers at Singaporeans: We Filipinos speak better English and think better than your local graduates![/h]Posted by temasektimes on April 27, 2012
Are Filipino workers preferred over Singaporeans because they speak better English than us? At least one Filipino ‘foreign talent’ Glenn Quilon Barrometro seems to think so.
Since Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong started his Facebook page last Saturday, it was inundated with pledges of support and gratitude from the immigrants and foreigners who have benefited from the PAP’s pro-foreigner policies, one of whom is Filipino ‘FT” Angelo Marc Jandugan who wrote:
“Hello sir, on behalf of all the Filipino community in Singapore and new citizens like myself, we thank you so much for believing in us and I hope you will continue your good policy of bringing more people from all over the word to take Singapore forward.”
According to his Facebook page, Angelo Marc Jandugan graduated from the University of the Philippines Diliman ranked 322 in Asia and is currently working at Deutsche Bank, Singapore leading to some Singaporeans to question why he was employed by such a prestigious bank when there are many Singaporean graduates who can do his job.
In a discussion thread on Facebook, Glenn wrote:
“University Philippines Diliman may not be at par with NUS, but because we can speak English and think better than your university graduates (plus we only get meager salaries from multinationals….), they chose to hire us.”
He also took a jibe at Singaporeans asking them to ‘farm’ in North Korea if they can’t compete with foreigners:
“You are already living in a competitive world! If you can’t compete, you can’t survive! that’s all it! Go to North Korea and farm there if you don’t want competitions!”
According to information posted on his Facebook, Glenn is currently working as a Cobol Programmer Trainee at IBM Solutions Delivery and he lives in a HDB flat in Choa Chu Kang. He graduated from De La Salle University in the Philippines. It is not known if he is a Singapore PR or new citizen.
