How this country defines talent is severely myopic. many of those 'goons' are actually doing well overseas. either they are late developers or they excel in areas not considered important through a very narrow lens interpretating what is success.Originally posted by Mat Toro:not all 150k are talented. many are goons.
Originally posted by Lefleche:wrong, there is no evidenc to suggest that they afre doing well overseas at all. They could very well be struggling or unemployed as well. some came back.

they could have done better here or they would not have done so well here because of tough competition here.
i have friends/relatives who range from the top JCs who went overseas uni and decided not to come back to those who did not make it to local uni but now holding positions in MNCs or doing good business elsewhere.
I know a fren who went there and couldn't secure job. The Aussie govt kicked his family out because his son has mental problems.
my own bro-in-law could not make it in s'pore uni made good in UK. did his degree there, started his biz, now owns a GBP 700k beach house and a penthouse facing the big ben. last i heard he was considering buying a jag with his credit card. (credit limit???)
nobody said all are goons did they? some are goons.
another gd friend did his degree in aust n migrated there, then now in UK working as physio. even b4 he got to UK, he was already offferd 3 posiitons in UK hospitals. He is considered talent everywhere but here because his chinese weak.
who defines the goons?

Read carefully. I said not all are talent, some are goons. I didn't say all are goons did I?Originally posted by will4:U sounded differently when I said 80000 foreigners became citizen. U never be crtitical in ur thinking why do people want to be local citzen?
1) The conviniece of having a Spore passport to travel to other countries
without having to obtain a visa.
When I mentioned 150000 local migrated to other countries, u jumped straight to the conclusion they were goons. Where is ur stand?
It seemed many pro ruling party local like to ondemn their fellow local mihgrated to other countries as not loyal.
Right on babe.Originally posted by dragg:he did not break any promises.

Lame ducks? How is that so? Did you know that numerous of our MP's sons and daughters are actually abroad? Some have even taken up residence in their new adopted countries. Even so called ''elites'' are leaving our nation's shores and opting for other alternatives.Originally posted by Gazelle:I suspect that those whiners who are actively criticising about singapore political system here are nothing but hypocritical political jerks because the moment they move to a foreign country, they will become like a lame duck sucking up to their policies.
And the reason so many are still coming back here to whin about PAP and Singapore is because they have nowhere else to whin!!
Finally u mentioned some of the latest citizen are goons. So much for efficiency in screening people to be citizen.Originally posted by Mat Toro:Read carefully. I said not all are talent, some are goons. I didn't say all are goons did I?
The problem with you guys is you don't read carefully.
Are all the 80000 who came talent? Nope, some are goons too.

But all said and done, those who ''lame ducks" are in a much better position than most Singaporeans.. bats trapped in our nation's political web, the ruling party's lies and hypocrisy, unable to escape.
