  Can singaporeans renounce their citizenship before they are 11-12 years old and become stateless and remain in singapore as PR?
  
  like that no need to serve NS? Since they ain't technically 2nd gen PR.

  there's a quota in each registered company in singapore for the number of foreigners allowed. PRs is another issue whereby they get lower pay than citizens.
