The Netizen need to have his or her brain checked,
unable to tell there is a gap in product produce,
even for same product, the wage is not meant to be equal internationally.
Do not know advantage of world dominant currency.

SG churn out too many engineering graduates when diploma holders at the lower end will suffice for many jobs. Plus it is easy for grads from low-cost neighbouring countries to practise in SG, unlike other professions such as medicine and law. These depress the wages here.

Let us not be a Frog in the Well like Jac Lau

Just look within your own company and between Non- Citizens and Citizens

Why are Non- Citizens paid more than citizens for the same job?

Different league one lah.. Singapore education other than medicine, law and accounting are international standard hence they are real professionals. For all other degrees, you are trained to become mere workers. So cannot compare like this...
