Something is truly rotten in the state of S'pore when 95% of jobs created last year and 89% in 2022 went to foreigners.

Something is truly rotten in the state of S'pore when 93% of respondents in the Edelman Survey suffer from retrenchment anxiety.

Foreigners can accept lower salary to under- cut us. That is why EP must have levies every mth.

Even my friends children, all got jobs...

In other countries, the citizens become unemployed because there are not enough jobs for citizens.
Singapore is the only country in the world that there are enough jobs for citizens but the citizens become unemployed because the jobs
are taken by foreigners

I have been gainfully employed for the past 30 years, but have seen many of my ex-colleagues, former classmates and friends laid off in their 40s and 50s who are now underemployed or unemployed in spite of possessing degrees. Not everyone is as fortunate as us.

What happened to S'poreans 1st? When 95% of jobs created last year and 89% in 2022 went to foreigners then we all know that it is merely lip service!

it is impossible to be loyal to Singapore when foreigners can easily replace you for the job.
When you get older, Singapore is not a home but becomes a burden to you.

The problem is that 60% of voters chose greedy individuals who committed treason while in power.

60% consists of significant pioneer generation LKY supporters.
when all of them pass away (another 10 years), the 60% will drop significantly.
when the govt said they would set up poll stations in nursing homes, I knew PAP was targeting the support of PG generation in nursing homes
only younger voters will change the 60% number, older voters will remain with PAP.
once PG and Merdeka generation are dead, there will be no more 60%
