      See whether you will tolerate or intolerate if your child cannot get into the school you want.


      If my child cannot get into the school I want, I wouldn't say it was because of PRs/foreigners alone. Maybe it was because my child does not have a sibling in the school currently/previously; I am not an alumni; I didn't sit on the school board; I did not PV; I did not live within 1km or I simply did not have the luck in ballot?

      Who is to say our children will sure get the school we want with the removal of PRs/foreigners from the ballot pool?

      Please don't blame everything that not going our way on PRs/foreigners.

        If I may be blunt, you are looking at it from a totally myopic perspective.

        Life is not only about getting your kid to \"the school you want.\". It's more about LIVING it.

        My 2 cents.

                  Walau jialat. I only can trace back 2 generations, you can trace back so much more. That makes your descendants more purer than mine.

                  That means that under the new \"proposed\" rules, your decendants will have more chance to enrol in NYPS than mine. BAD, MAD, SAD :stompfeet: :mad:

                    I propose 3 classifications of Singaporeans…

                    (1) 14K (everyone else)
                    (2) 18K (descendant of Parameswara and his men)
                    (3) 24K (descendant of local orang utan, here before Parameswara arrived)

                      Can I pull string ornot? I shook Ah Meng's hand before leh (I got the photo to prove it).

                      So I considered 20K? Below orang utans but above humans? :faint:
