It's a long article that explore the multi facetted aspects of complex social response.to immigration
While they cite the negative behavior and sentiment of Singaporeans like racism and xenophobia, only one professor mentioned that Singaporeans may be driven by stress due to increased competitionfor jobs towards those negative feelings.
But if what he said is true. Increased competition means a Singaporean is less likely to get a job he wants...wouldn't that be a negative impact of immigration. If that is so why only look at gains and ignore the losses experienced by Singaporeans? If one is at the receiving end of the loss, wouldn't a negative sentiment towards immigration be a normal human response ...why is it characterised as a xenophobic response by politicians.
Long read but none of the professors dare to challenge the govt narrative ... dance around it.... dropping hints but avoiding the heart of the issue...which is how much do Singaporeans gain or lose from the immigration policy.
