i have met one philippino maid who retired home with a huge land and a huge house after working in Singapore.
Singaporeans should not be too sympathizing to these foreign workers when they return home to be landlords, rich people and envied by their poor countrymen. I think Singaporeans are too soft hearted.
When i watch TV8 Sojourn Home serials, i can't stand these foreigners crying about having to leave their children while they come here to work, then see their big land, big house, rich assets and envious neighbours. What the heck, they are given a great chance to earn so much wealth for a short 10 years and they cried like as if they are forced to leave home to work in Singapore.
Nobody forced them and they should be grateful they even got such a chance to earn so much money to be so rich back home.
Singaporeans don't be dumb, wake up to their " mocking us, laughing at us " behind our back and smiling to their banks back home acting.
Our PAP government keeps on praising these foreigners and keeps on attacking Singaporeans and suppressing local culture, promote alien foreign cultures.
Of course when the foreigners see this, they naturally despise the locals.
then Mediacorp should make serials about Singaporeans lifestyle, how hard we need to work and why we can't afford children.
I agree with you, Singapore is too pro-foreigners. Singaporeans should unite and speak up for each other in our own country. Some Singaporeans still didn't realise we are overly tolerant to FT while forgetting our own countrymen.

But Singapore is ruled by bananas. How to resist?
Bananas culturally, spirituality already surrendered to foreigners. How to count on them to resist? How?
Lee Kuan Yew is a banana, culturally, spiritually, he surrendered everything to the west, how to count on him to resist?
Did he fight for Singapore during WWII? No, he collaborated with japanese invaders.
Who? Who fought against Japanese invaders during WWII?
Dalforce, or theSingapore Overseas Chinese Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army (星�义勇军;Xinghua Yi Yong Jun) was anirregular forces/guerrilla unit within the British Straits Settlements Volunteer Force during World War II. Its members were recruited among theethnic Chinese people of Singapore. It was created on 25 December 1941 by Lieutenant Colonel John Dalley of the Federated Malay States Police Force. The unit was known to the British colonial administration as Dalforce, after its chief instructor and commanding officer, John Dalley, whereas the Chinese in Singapore only knew it as the Singapore Overseas Chinese Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army. This formation took part in the Battle of Singapore and some members conducted a guerrilla campaign against Japanese forces during theJapanese occupation.
The British noted how ferociously the Chinese volunteers in Dalforce fought, earning them the nickname Dalley's Desperadoes.
then start from ourselves first. Start from being a supporting Singaporean fellowman to another. Let this snowball and more Singaporeans unite and defend our own countrymen from this floodgate of FT in our daily lives.
Oh! son of the all goodness! these are emotions and not culture lah.

We must first get rid of the PAP. You don't get rid of PAP, everything is empty talk.
i was v v disappointed abt LKY helping the Jap during WWII. I used to regard him as the father of our nation. Now i can't. He is the best chameleon politican in the world. He changes to suit himself to survive well in his glory and power.

He has been pulling a con game with the Singapore dialect chinese all along and cheating them of their rights.
Whereas many English-educated Babas re-emphasised their
allegiance to the British Empire and were afraid that full independence
might harm their still privileged position, the vast majority of
Chinese-educated Chinese were vehemently anti-colonial and
anti-imperialist.

The Man Who Almost Became Prime Minister
“Chin Siong was introduced to me by Lee Kuan Yew. Kuan Yew came to visit me in my little office underneath the stairs and said, “Meet the future Prime Minister of Singapore!” I looked at Lim Chin Siong and I laughed. LKY said, “Don’t laugh!” He is the finest Chinese orator in Singapore and he will be our next Prime Minister!” - David Marshall

amitayus...caste system in India is their culture. India Nationals in Bombay capital also not happy with the swarm of their own kinds from other poorer provinces into the capital.
China City residents thumbing their noses at other provinces residents in the same country is also a kind of China culture, inborn, inbred for many centuries. They do not practise tolerance or understanding.
Only Singaporeans give this kind of tolerance and understanding to others.
One very classic example how Foreign Talent mock us behind our back while earning money and fame in Singapore, this Taiwan host Chen Guo Cheng whose " Three dishes one soup" serial on TV used to be my favourite until during his third serial, his pro-taiwanese and mock Singaporeans ugly true face showed. Chen Guo Cheng started to invite many Taiwanese celebrities onto his show and he started to show his favour towards them by always letting them win to bring back the prize set.
During the second last episode, Chen Guo Cheng mocked at Chef Daniel who voted for the Singaporean by saying on TV " why did you vote him? because he is a Singaporean?"and then start sniggering. Chen Guo Cheng and his taiwanese co-host chef both voted for a old taiwanese singer who obviously can't cook.
Only Chef Daniel stood on the side of the better cook Singaporean. How can Chen Guo Cheng insulted a Professional Singaporean Chef when he himself is biased towards the taiwanese singer?
i am glad this serial is stopped immediately. I salute the decision. Why do we let a taiwanese come here to openly insult Singaporeans on a TV show ? Chen Guo Cheng didn't show any least bit of respect towards us after he gained fame and a chance to travel while working in Singapore TV station.
Lee Kuan Yew destroyed all the chinese schools because he feared the political threat of people trained in these schools and so imposed his beloved english education system on the entire island.
All trained in english schools, standard of mandarin is like shit, then we are forced to import these people from PRC, Taiwan to come and host channel 8 shows and they secretly despise us for our garbage mandarin and singlish.
Launch a thousand speak mandarin campaigns, but no effort to build up chinese schools because the babas in the PAP fear the political threat of the dialect chinese in this country.
Quite a ludicrous situation really.
Then impress on these FT , taiwan , china that this is Uniquely Singaporeans.
Don't come here , earn 10 times more than their country and still laugh at us. Singaporeans don't take it sitting down, teach them some manners.
LKY has build for Singapore a good economy, this is a proven record but he has also mould Singapore this small country according to his ideologies, making us different.
We should be proud of that and not let these FT come and mock us. You have just reinforced the fact that FT are the intolerant and not understanding people, not Singaporeans.
I have seen how Taiwan's host mock fun of other nationalities in the face on their TV programmes, they have the " i am superior" mentality in their own country. When they import this into Singapore, it doesn't make us feel good.
Even malaysian come to work Spore. Go bac home to johor everyday.
Exchange rate favour them alot..
They can aford to buy cars and built a 2 storey semi-d and even hav extra cash to go genting.
Unike spoorean which some of us earn almost of same salary as them, we are struggling to meet the ends while they go home feel comfortable and happy.
Malaysians are smarter , they also gossip about Singaporeans among themselves but they keep a very low profile.
So much so that we forget there are many Malaysians among us.
You are just jealous. If you think its easy to go to another country and earn, what is stopping you from going to US/Europe and do the same?
Jealous ??? i am proud that Singapore can help indonesian maid, phillipino maid, bangala gardener, mynmar construction worker to become land owners, big house owners back home.
But i also feel fed up when too many foreigners come into my country and then start criticising our food, our flats, our people and our everything.
Good if you are a good human and take this positively.
May be there is a reason as well for all this criticising as well.^^
Originally posted by Leogirldreamer:i think Singaporeans should watch more China movies and serial, then we will realise China Nationals look down on their own people even worse than us.
Beijing residents will always look down on those who flock to their capital to work and get married. Even a Beijing wife will always look down on her other province born husband. I saw this in a China movie. They do not spare any words to critise their own countrymen in their own country.
As for the India nationals, their caste system is even more obvious.
I don’t think we should feel that we are anti-foreigners when they are the ones who come to Singapore and bring their superiority culture here to look down on us.
That’s why we are anti-foreigners. Singaporeans are definitely more tolerant and less status conscious than China and India nationals.
Recently there is this Going Home show on 8 and you can see how much an Indonesian maid can bring home to build a big house, buy a truck for the husband to start a transport company in as short as 6 years in Singapore. Another Bangala gardener in Singapore become a landlord of two shops and a landed house when he works here.
Singapore is a big pot of Gold to these foreigners. They should at least respect our country and Singaporeans.
China managers/executives earn 6-8k rmb which is only a mere 1200 sing dollar after exchange. Their lower rank jobs earn 1200 rmb. Why should they be proud towards Singaporeans when they are here to study and work with a good pay of 4000 – 10,000 sing dollars?
We give them a chance to earn so much money better than their own homeland. They should not bring their critising culture here and start to compare and make noises about us. This is the least they should do . RESPECT US !!!!
As the saying goes, "ikan busok garam tutop, maknusia busok ringget tutop"
eh ...??? malay ? i dun understand leh.
if they are so superior, they need to come hear earn our marnie? think

(Literally: "Fish spoilt, Salt cover-up; Person spoilt, Money cover-up")
by using salt to cover-up the staleness of spoilted fish; by using wealth to cover-up the shortcomings of people who may not be morally good / --> Human society tends to ignore and forgive the (lousy) character of those who can make big money
Dalforce is a Chinese chauvinist
