Default Do you love Singaporeans now?

Another perspective on the Foreign Talent issue. No tiresome everyday ranting.

With more FTs around do you now appreciate more the "true blue Singaporeans" we all so love to hate

Too chim. After some repeated reading, I kind of understand what you mean.

Are you trying to say that:

With all the FT issues, we will now appreciate Singaporeans more than FTs.

i think what he meant was that, since there are myriad FTs around. the unvalued actions by some Singaporean would be more appreciated now as it it pales in comparison. haha which i will agree to a certain extent, previously i used to get very peeved when i encountered loud-speaking hokkien ahpeks on the bus or train. but now it seems to be quite ok compared to some FTs unbearable actions lol

We shouldn't open "the gate" too easily and too wide. FT is needed only when we can't get it locally or else we will have more unemployed local.

Yes, B you are right, my question is do you appreciate Singaporeans (that we always love to hate and complain so much about) more now.

Yet your first question will lead to my question. I love Singaporeans. I personally hate foreigners, my father agrees with me on that motion.

Singaporeans from the late 80's & the current generation, no differences at all. ( except now the younger gen more tech-savvy )
Have been & will always will be fine with Singaporeans. ( except for some of our lack of basic respect for one another )
