Kangadrool Supersonic July 1, 2011 Share July 1, 2011 (edited) It may have long history/legacy, but does not mean we have to take it without questioning. Times have changed. The PRC and Indians are the new rich. Obviously, they can afford to go overseas to study without any financial assistance from the host countries. Why are we still paying up for them? Need review of this scheme. All the Western countries Unis are now making $$$ out from foreign students. We are the only one paying for them to come here???

Bystander50 5th Gear July 1, 2011 Share July 1, 2011 wat the agenda of this article not to vote for him, so medicine man or the ex ntuc man better Voting for whoever makes no difference, our president looks good on paper as being the country's top man, but is as good as powerless. His decisions are mainly influenced by the cabinet. We can't even tell him who not to shake hands with or what time he can play golf. But voting against any ex-P8P man who may be deemed as a yes man will have a difference. Like prataman never continue chasing what OCT asked for and failed to get the answer. It is only when someone who goes in and wreck "havoc", then we'll be able to see some accountbility and transparency. Now I smell something, is the increase of annual payout salary for the president raised so that it can attract TT who can earn much more outside the private sector?

If don't offer them some freebies, how to make them come over? Especially when SG keep harping and claiming that it wants to be an education hub. Look at the whole FT educational industry by going to those private schools, you'll know what type of "students" we have attracted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A5SB 1st Gear July 2, 2011 Share July 2, 2011 This policy has indeed robbed deserving Singaporeans of places in our local university and deprived of good employment prospects upon graduation. This reversed discrimination against locals effectively means that hard earned taxpayers monies have been used against our best interest, as taxpayers moneis were used to sponsor scholarships and living expenses for foreigners to the detriment of deserving citizens who were squeezed out of a place in the local universities. Maybe the intention was somewhat good, but it flies in the face of logic when you look at its impact from then up till the present days. I tried very hard to see the positives, but so far have been largely unsuccessful. Remember we are looking for an EP who will look after the interest of the citizens, what do you make of the aptitude of the person responsible for this policy?
