Business as usual for PAP’s pro-foreigner policy

Looks like the PAP Government’s policy on foreign talent has been officially reiterated by LKY – it’ll be business as usual as far as the PAP Government’s pro-foreigner immigration policy is concerned. This can only surely mean increasingly tougher times ahead for local born and bred Singaporeans.Those Singaporeans who voted for the PAP in GE 2011 (foolishly thinking that the PAP Government will toughen up its immigration policy) can now kick themselves in the butt and repent.
They have done themselves and their children a total disservice. They will now have to more aggressively compete with the foreign talent. Their children will also have to more aggressively compete with the children of the foreign talent.
Those Singaporeans who foolishly voted for the PAP in GE 2011 have now been reminded by LKY that they are not good enough and that they are not talented enough – and that’s why LKY prefers foreign talent.
If they are happy about what LKY has said, then they should have their heads checked.
The only option for those foolish voters is to patiently endure the increasing pain and to remember to switch their votes to the opposition in GE 2016. They have to be smart and join the 40% who voted against the PAP.
The PAP Government’s obsession with being No. 1 in everything at double-quick time is clearly one of the reasons why it is also obsessed with opening the doors so widely to foreigners. Such an obsession will look good on the PAP ministers’ resume. But it’s the locally born and bred Singaporeans who will suffer. The PAP Government (and LKY in particular) doesn’t seem to care about that. They are only interested in nice-looking statistics and eye-popping wealth.
Many governments in the world also strive to be good in what they do. But it seems that the PAP Government is uniquely and incomparably obsessed with the pursuit of excellence – to the point where the people’s interests have been disregarded.
Yet, in this obsessive and relentless pursuit of excellence, the PAP Ministers must ask themselves whether we have truly arrived at the stage of excellence. Or have we sacrificed heart, body and soul for nothing.
The accummulation of wealth and more wealth (especially for the benefit of a small number of individuals) is definitely not an indication that we are a society of excellence.
There are many countries where the citizens comes first, where foreign immigration is controlled and restricted and where there is wealth accummulation – yet there is still so much creativity and innovation. And the welfare of the citizens still take pole position.
New Zealand is a good example. In terms of creativity and innovation, New Zealand definitely beats Singapore hands down – movie-making is just one of those areas where New Zealand excels in.
New Zealand’s foreign immigration is controlled and restricted – only those foreigners who can truly contribute to the growth of the country are allowed to live in New Zealand – and they have to satisfy the stringent requirements of a transparent immigration policy.
New Zealand’s welfare system is still very much a plus factor. There’s free medical care and free education for New Zealand citizens and PRs. In a country more well-known for its agricultural and tourism industries, there are rich folks who own huge tracts of land as well as many overseas investments. Yet, poverty is absent in New Zealand. New Zealand’s current Prime Minister, John Key, is a millionaire in his own right – but he accummulated his wealth as an investment banker before he came into politics. In his present job, he earns just a fraction of what PM Lee earns – yet, he has a much tougher job than PM Lee.
In a truly democratic country like New Zealand, politicians have a really hard time but are not well-paid – yet they strive to work hard for their voters.
So, if countries such as New Zealand can succeed in the pursuit of excellence at a humane pace and without relying on foreign talent, why can’t Singapore do so too?
The only answer that I can think of is that the PAP Government wants Singapore to be No. 1 at double-quick or even triple-quick time. It is only interested in quick-fix solutions – regardless of the cost to the people and the sacrifices that the people have to make.
We are truly a people to be pitied.
