Stupid Iswaran's statement confirms govt has been too dependent on FTs.

[Confuseous]

WP is not exactly asking to jam-brake. It is just asking to slow down the immigration intake. But that's not the issue here. The issue is the alarm bells sounded by Iswaran that business closures would be sped up if we slow down immigration intake.

Doesn't Iswaran's statement expose what we've always suspected? That is, the govt has been too dependent on foreign labour? Not that these jobs cannot be filled by locals. You see them almost everywhere. From waiters and waitresses, admin clerks, customer services execs, tele-marketeers. You mean Singaporeans don't want these jobs?

PAP is the one who has been speeding. It has been speeding so much that any Tom Dick and Harry is able to land in Singapore, get a work permit and presto, be working in no time. Immigration policy should always be taking in the people with the skills we want and/or need. Not just anybody who resembles a human being.

But PAP doesn't care. It simply takes in anyone till our infrastructure is bursting at the seams. Not to mention these immigrants are competing with Singaporeans for jobs that can be done by locals.

It is PAP who has been speeding in an already congested car park in the first place. If you don't speed, jamming the brake would be as good as an emergency stop. The fact that it spins shows you have been speeding in that over congested car park.

Wake up, Iswaran.

If this idiot Iswaran hasnt noticed


The business and economic conditions in singapore had already slowed down and been slowing down since the middle of last year. This is becasee it is a external and global condition. Dont try to put this to the fact that business can make more money just by being here where there is already nothing much left to cut in terms of workers salaries and costs of running businesses. You cannot stop them from running to Burma if thats where the next area of opportunities lie.....


What is happening here is that the PAP wanna use this ponzi scheme as a foil to explain away their inability to keep the economy afloat any further!!!

The easiest way to short circuit the system is to import more foreigners to further depress the price of labour here with the added advantage of pushing out all the discontented sinkies who will vote against them for their marginalisation arising from such a move.... dirty bastard 2 prong strategy

But as Laksaboy had mentioned before.....they are probably fearful of the discovery of something more heinous....possibly the bankruptcy of our country's massive reserves!!!!!

Iswaran is nothing but just another Clown in PM's office, sucking taxpayer's money but doing fcuk all.
Making speeches with no substance, no facts - his speciality of motherhood statements from which he can squirm and twist and turn.
