[h=2]S'pore FT Policy is a utter disaster, Set S'pore growth back 40 years![/h]
Why 40 years?

1. FAS used of old & overweight FTs and Coach has resulted in football standard dropping to pre 1970s level same as the times in the 60s when we couldn't even beat Malaysia.

2. NTUC used of FT like Amy Cheong has re-ignited racial issues of pre 1970s.

3. PAP mass import of FTs has rekindled serious housing shortage and un-affordability of pre 1970s times.

4. PAP promotion of Sin city activities like F1 and Casinos has brought back social ills to pre 1970s level especially personified by the current sex for IT tender in the civil service.

5. PAP current education policies focusing on getting low grade FTs into pmets positions has resulted in producing local graduates who education has no value in the S'pore work place just like pre 1970s when the glut of local Chinese graduates couldn't find job in a English speaking working environment.
 
SG should learn from GCC countries like UAE & Oman:

1. FT are only allowed to work & live in the country with no privileges, concessions or subsidies.
2. Mandatory job priority to the locals.
3. Most companies must maintain a ratio of 1:4 of FT to locals in their payroll.
4. FT can never be PR or citizen.

I can guarantee that if today SG take away all the privileges from FT like in the GCC, the FT will still come and work in SG because that is what they are here for.
 
I would like to see bangladesh bodyguards for LKY, Indian Chinese cooks for LKY, philippine accountants for LKY, press officers from indonesia, drivers from vietnam and doctors from myanmar for LKY. We must be international
 
That depends which group the pap wants to please, which for now, seems to be the FTs. But if they decide to do it like the GCC guys in managing the FTs, I will surely stop being a FT in GCC & come back to my motherland. For now, honestly, life is better as a FT in GCC than citizen in SG. I wish it could be the other way.
