Every country has to solve the same problem but not neccessarily the same way

Spore operation fee very high
if employ locals means even higher operation cost
so, most employer will turn to employ FT

But govt, no stupid also
u need to employ 3 locals then can employ 1 FT
or u need to employ 1 local, then can employ 1 malaysian.


so, locals still have job, just that many don't 1 2 take lower pay, they rather go drive taxi or stay jobless at home

I dun understand since we're so stuck up to ang mohs, how come we didn't follow wat the ang mohs in driving the foreigners out to free up jobs?

Look at wat a great job obama is doing in US, how he kicked out the foreigners when unemployment rises.

I have a feeling they blunder. They can't see this American crisis coming.
They cannot admit to this fact and one mistake leads to another mistake.
Imagine the present population doubles.

When the twin towers were hit , we behave like the 51st states of America. Round the clock reportings. Nowhere could I find similar ways of reportings.

I cannot see any reasons for this.

Now the consequences are:
1) Higher property cost (and also due to IRs)
2) Lower wages
3) More cannot afford own cars
4) Lower productivity (according to ecnomist report)
5) PMETS replaced by FTs.
6) Congestion

=>Overall Higher Living Cost, and even Lower Birthrate!
