Do young people in Spore really see it as their home, truly?
-
With the knowledge that there are existence of young Singapore talents leaving Singapore to search for the greener patch, do you think "This is home, truly" is the sentiment of young people in Singapore nowadays? I personally think that young Singaporeans do not have a very strong sense of belonging. They can leave for another country if they have the ability and reason to. I have a cousin who stayed in Australia for a few years now and she has decided to be a PR there and not returned to Singapore anymore. There have been many articles regarding local talent outflow despite the government ongoing efforts to mold these people. Also, Singapore is known to be the 'stressful' society as compared to some other Western countries where emphasis on education is not a lot, thus creating a pull factors for Singaporeans.

singapore only got human resources, that why education is more important.

Singapore is their home, no doubt.
But when you have a home that is stifling and dominated by your traditionalist grandfather and foreign step mother and a money minded father. Do you still care to come home that often, if at all?

Its a new generation. Borders, land, home are not very meaningful concepts in this new globalization age

The only way to tell is to leave singapore for awhile and see if you do miss Singapore. If you do, then chances are Singapore is still home to you.

personally, i think the young r just restless, with their mobility, english communiction skills and education, they can find there's vast opportunities opened up to them....this is not a scenario pertaining only to here but to other countries like malaysia, indonesia, china, japan too , just to name a few countries around us.....
but at the end of the day, it is still home where yr heart is, that is why most keep on to their red passport. also as a form of security if things dont work out. ...Even when they r away, they usually keep touch with fhe fella singaporeans there, celebrating our national festivals together and sharing laksa, bak kut teh and news from back home......... and many do come back due to many factors too, which amongst them is children and family...do u want yr kid to come back from school one day and call u by yr name. Ha!
