90 turn up for talk on 'Supporting Singaporeans First'

It's sad to see a country build by our forefather end up benefiting the non-Singaporean. Even country should take care of it's citizen's first. Full stop. Nothing to argue about.

I ‘m pondering Foreign Talent First or Singaporean is PRIORTY? Just imagine this is a perpetual issue of our government have generously given free to Foreign Students to study here and their privileges are better off than Singapore Students, while our local students’ parents have to toil days and nights to support the children educations. It is not cheap to study in Singapore Universities. This is unfair, unjust, yet we have to endure the high cost of living, education, housing, medical-care, transport. We have to think twice to mandate them in the next GE???

May I ask why in China for comparison that the elder of aged do not work & provide for montly why in spore as cliamed world class no.1, that we have to work may be until death. it is ashame to be no1 as life here is so struggling for the senior citizens.

Wonder why Government allows a foreigner to be a housing agent,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Very puzzled?????????????????????

That's RIGHT SINGAPOEANS, foreigners are welcome BUT SINGAPOREANS FIRST !!! Understand HDB????

Fully support this cause....the government throwing the citizen to fend fpr themselves and there no nationhood anymore....everyone for themselves...

When war time comes,i have to fight for the FTs. Does it worth to fight for? Just think about it... is this still my nation,Singapore?

"Does our government look at healthcare as an enterprise and citizens as consumers, or healthcare as a need that they have to provide?" he asked. This Corporation Mentality must stop...ASAP. Their stupid policies have been causing much disillusionment amongst all Singaporeans, young and old. What Hospital restructuring ? call a spade a spade: it's privatization!

What we have here are multiracial Singaporeans made up of Mr Leong Sze Hian, Mr Kumaran Pillai, Mr Nazryn Azhar Samat, Mr Gilbert Goh, Mr Prabu R and Mr Kwan Yue Keng and others, I salute you guys for standing to what is rightfully ours, Jobs!
You can dramatically cut ministers salaries and put up a nice show, but they in remarkable numbers taking care of a country less than 30 miles wide, remained the richest of the lot in this world. If you have a young foot stomping minister who doesn't bat an eyelid when talking about branded goods (Kate Spade) in front of a lot of Singaporeans who cannot afford a $30 hand bag let alone a $1000, and a whole lot of others who were privelledge to ride on taxpayers monies, get certain exemption in NS, live in a lap of luxury and has never experienced hardship decide what is good for us by openning the flood gates to FTs and now pretend that they are concerned. I had suffered and I know what is it like to starve, not these bunch of money crazy people that represent us. Too bad this is our luck.

a first step by gilbert goh will be a giant leap for we singaporeans pap will never change but we will

Apply minimum wages ONLY to foreigners! Extend CPF scheme to any foreigners who want to work here! Policies ensuring ALL job interviews and selection process must have Singaporean majority members (Singaporean who are 2nd generation and above) on the selection panel. Hiring manager must be a local Singaporean.....

Since you claim need to pay high to get good people in public, why not get FTs. Cheap and good. Have all MPs, ministers be FTs, please.
Next time, have the event publicized well in advance, so people can attend and have their voices heard.

It's Shameful What's Happening in this Country in Terms of
What The Governments Needs Rather Than What The Citizens Actually Seriously Needs.

The dilemma here is the papies pushing retirement age further but jobs opportunity favour is given to FT as they are easily applicable.

The issue is that, the main purpose of bringing foreign workers was only meant to help Singapore's GDP, not its citizens.

Cannot take the gov words that they have cut down number of FT. Yes, we demand that the books be open and figures subject to scrutiny. Only in Singapore do you find Elected Government back stabbing own Citizens. 10000000 SHAME on the Cabinet, George Yeo included.

Hi Mark, I can feel your pain. Hang in there. My job had been taken away by foreign trash once too. I also know many others who are in the same plight in late 30s or 40s. FAP will not have their way forever and we will remember them for selling Singapore!!!!!

Thanks to the 90 turn up for talk on 'Supporting Singaporeans First'
Firstly why do we need to speak Speakers' Corner at Hong Lim Park?
What are the PAP MPs doing after the GE? -- you are elected by the people FOR the people and NOT for PAP.
Why do we need you PAP MPs in Parliament when you all are whipped to sing the same song PAP wants you?
You PAP MPs are a bunch of useless invertebrates.

PAP government imported FTs, we will export PAP in the next GE.

It won't be long. By end of 2012, 900 will turn-up.
