I tot foreign trash refers to those who can easily obtain PR but are not the so called talents..don't think foreign workers and labourers can apply for PR anyway..

many of us are not talented to pour cement, climb scaffolding, build formwork and bend iron bar, serve tables, cook and clean, drives buses and lori, clear tables and rubbish dump

If we called them talented, what do we call those singaporeans who also serve tables, drive bus, cook and clean etc..

I thought they are always labelled as blue collar workers? Why the difference? Problem is that because of these two words, some of the so called talented PRs thought the world of themselves, looking down at Singaporeans. (not saying all of them)

It is when the money one makes is perceived to make one more superior than another that one start to 'look down' on 'blue-collar' jobs and gives room for opportunists to colonize our society. I know of many whom value respect over money, as they know their own abilities are limited (没有资格）。 However， because of how our society discriminates on them, it sometimes make them feel 'shameful' to take up those jobs...

Transport Minister Lui Tuck Yew was sighted observing the operations at Bishan Circle Line station this morning by a Stomp reader.

The recently opened Circle Line, 10 years in the making, has witnessed some birthing pains, including overcrowding and train service breakdowns.

However, it seemed as if the situation has improved, the reader observed.

from the pictures submitted by the reader, it seemed that Mr Liu was on his own and not with a whole bunch of staff. :rahrah: :rahrah:

couldnt board the train because too crowded??? :rotflmao:

I would prefer to see what is being improve, rather than just to see his photos appear again to show he is taking the public transport.

[dolphinsiah]

Recently , our trains service breakdown quite often and also encountered Security issues....


This is my thoughts as Singapore Population is booming fast....

I think our Public transport trains and buses services should not be run by only two Operaters SMRT and SBS....

This 2 operaters keep on saying it is so difficult to employ Drivers...blah...blah....

So if it so difficult, the Government should issue more licenses .....to create more competiton ....

If not SMRT and SBS always think they are big shots......Train breakdown...fine lor
Security Breach...fine lor.....

Keep on testing the Locals patient :mad: .....if it is Oversea...I think the CEO would be Sack.....
Hello PAP...wake up!!!!

Give Mr. $$ (Lui) a chance lah. He's been in the ivory tower for too long already...
Maybe he's already formulating solutions in his mind while he's waiting :rahrah: :rahrah: :rahrah:

[LOLMum]
