  It depends on the individual's perception I guess.

  Someone could view anyone foreign = foreign talent...I think this train of thought is quite popular.

  Some prefer to emphasize on the 'talent' bit. However there could be differing views over that as well.

  For e.g. talent is usually associated with an ability to do a task that few others can. The skill being a rarity.

  However some would argue that to have a common skill and do it cheaper then anyone else could be considered a rarity as well.

  Summary...it's what you take of it.

  Usually yes though there are exceptions. Food for thought:Are all SGians who get foreign scholarships, talents?
