I think he's just giving FT a pay raise. 

[Ola]

So those earning more than $5k are still affected by existing and new FTs

PAP is hinting that those earning more than $5k do not have any Anti- F Sentiments???

Another idiotic Minister

[Ola]

Has PAP remove 50k or 100k FTs & PRs

When they have MORE NEWer but old ideas (NDP Rally 2022) to import FTs

Or they just want more Anti- F sentiments again?

[ArielCasper]

Why can't we just adopt import tax on EP? For every EP, additional tax of 30%.. The 30% collected will go toward funding Skill Future or other scheme to equip sinkie will new skills..

It will hit a point where it make more sense to employ sinkie coz it cost less.

[Wy:Nox]

This is a long standing unsolved issue that is a prick causing a sore now.

Some of those fraudsters/ scammers who act as FTs to enter our shores should be dealt with rather than to show a weak Govt. Secondly, once they receive approval to come, those companies should pay some form of headcount tax unless they take up Citizenship.

[Bigbluedot]

It is not the. Salary but the number of FTs. If small who cares.

[Ola]

Yes, it is the Quantity

so PAP must remove those fake/ semi FTs/ PRs here

who are not real Quality

This is the only way to solve Anti- F Sentiments

[Ola]

Now EP Salary Criteria eligibility is $5600

Why not set EP quota for those earning less than $12,000 instead?
