I like to n the good thing I have no reservist to attend to so it is easier for me to leave this country anytime I want to.Originally posted by Mat Toro:would you like to canada yourself?
The good thing about the programme is showing if other people can make it in Canada, the local should be able to.

No prizes for guessing the right thing but let us come back to the main topic.Originally posted by Mat Toro:so is it a yes or a no?
I wonder if the Asian Expat will lead to an increase in the no of local
immigrants to other countries? -
Why? did I hit on a sore spot my fren? You must have regreted doing NS for nothin didn't you?
Thanks for doing NS for Singapore anyway. Thanky vely much.
You think Asian expat will do anything? why don't you conduct a survey and see. -

When I praised the programme "Asian Expat", u seemed to be worked up
for nothing, u trying to tell us the programme is no good? How come u did not write to the MediaCorp to take off the programme to discourage people from migrating? When the govt announced there were 800 local leaving each year, seemed pretty upset about it. -
I'm not upset, why shld i be upset? i'm only putting things in perspective for you.
Whether you serve NS or not tells us a lot about and and is important.
If you served and not take the citizenship, that means you made a foolish decision one way or another. -
Serving NS tell u a lot about what thing? By not becoming a citizen after serving NS is a foolish decision, who is the genius telling u?Originally posted by Mat Toro:I'm not upset, why shld i be upset? i'm only putting things in perspective for you.

Please tell the reason.

I cannot see why decisions made as a youth can be seen as a foolish decision. But good that he realised his follies before too late. Time to take out your CPF.Originally posted by Mat Toro:I'm not upset, why shld i be upset? i'm only putting things in perspective for you.

U think the programme "Asian Expat" should be taken off the air to discourage further migration by the locals?Originally posted by bigmouthjoe:I cannot see why decisions made as a youth can be seen as a foolish decision.

No, Singaporeans should know more about other countries and people. Whether good or bad.Originally posted by will4:U think the programme "Asian Expat" should be taken off the air to discourage further migration by the locals? -
Common sense me fren.Originally posted by will4:Serving NS tell u a lot about what thing? By not becoming a citizen after serving NS is a foolish decision, who is the genius telling u?
Please tell the reason.
Why waste time doing NS when you don't want citizenship?
Anyway, thanks for serving Singapore. -
It's not to late to realise his mistakes... to err is human.Originally posted by Mat Toro:Common sense me fren.

He was plain foolish. But he doesn't seem to learn from his folly.
Still, we singaporeans gained from his folly, we shld at least thanky him for it. -
How is that so? Why doesn't it seem that he has learnt from his folly? Just curious to hear your views.Originally posted by Mat Toro:He was plain foolish. But he doesn't seem to learn from his folly. -
look at his posts. He feels so sore about the whole thing. I think he shld just move on in life and get lost from singapore. Thats will make him a much happier person that way.
I think you owe him a debt of gratitude sir. -
Always felt that NS is good for everyone anyway, nothing to feel sore about it. The only bad thing is lagging behind the girls.Originally posted by Mat Toro:look at his posts.

Anyway, I don't think he feels sore about it. It's just an after thought. -
NS is great for singaporeans but too high a price to pay for people who end up not being singaporeans.
Thats why I say, those who want to migrate shld go fast, not wait. -
There is little difference in being a PR n local.Originally posted by Mat Toro:Common sense me fren.

1) Local get to buy subsidized flat. subsidized school fees, a red passport
requiring no visa to travel to other countries n cheaper medical fees.
2) PR can only buy HDB from resale market but anyway houses in neighbouring
countries much bigger as mentioned by the local paper.
I read school fees n medical fees will be slighly higher for PR should not be
a problem. -
I forgot to tell u I have no reservist n never serve the ten year cycle.Originally posted by Mat Toro:He was plain foolish. But he doesn't seem to learn from his folly.
