SingaporePatient, "Mr Chiam is a wonderful guy, a true native son, but has he come up with a larger vision than merely opposing the PAP? He is a good MP but I cannot imagine him leading a cabinet." - very true indeed.

Pay them $1500 to $1800 a month to clean the table. Locals will work , and you get locals who understand the needs of our diners better. Now they are only paid about $800 a month with free food from any of the food court stalls during their working hours. They are also instructed to quickly clear the tables so that our over crowded foods courts will have more places for dinners who are waiting to eat. What to do , when you have a population of...

Parents and educators need to encourage/sustain curiosity by creative questioning of kids to encourage them ditto. 'Revert back' is an example of redundancy-misusage - from unquestioningness?

My perspective of FT is for them to be at least working as a Manager level. As you said, skills matter more I guess any positions below that can be filled by a local. My personal opinion only. For your 2nd question, why waste more time looking for one? Well in the latest recession, Europe and US are the worst hit. So why would they want to go back when situation is even bleaker back home?

Isn’t this Amit Nagpal the Indian National who is a PR now, who made tons of noise about Singaporeans? Now he is complaining himself. What hypocrisy. Many Singaporeans just dump spam mails without fuss. This guy now finds spamming such an irritant he has to make a big fuss telling everyone his woes in Singapore. Such a hypocrite. Be thankful Singapore gives you a place to stay and work. ...

how do you define "truly multilingual"? why would you have/need a "crutch" unless you're disabled? policy and methodology aside, motivation is perhaps the key factor to proficiency on an indiv basis.

YESTERDAY'S report ('Developer makes surprise $251m offer') shocked me too, as the bid was three times the trigger price of $82 million. Would it be wrong to say that the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) is also adding to the trend of ever spiralling property prices? In the open tender system, the highest bidder usually lands the deal. Full Story
