Foreign Talent

Sometimes I wonder if an MNC decides to draw out from a company and decides to set up a new plant somewhere else, is it really the locals that takes a bad hit?

It might not be, being based in this MNC for a few weeks, looking around less than 50% of the staff on this floor are Singaporeans. Foreign talent? I doubt so. I don’t’ think all of these jobs are not doable by locals. More and more Singaporeans are becoming expats and foreign talent overseas. Sometimes, foreign might not be good.


Having a foreign company set up office in Singapore and yet hire non Singaporeans? Locals don’t benefit and we have so many non Singaporeans who aren’t really interested in integrating into the lifestyle of Singapore taking up PRs, what extreme benefits does it bring?
