What do you see?
600 jobs held by foreigners (PRCs) or 400 job opportunities for Singaporeans and a chance to learn, gain experience and grow in a global company? Is the glass half full or half empty?
Or are you going to complain that there are many PRCs in your workplace and start a petition to ban them like Lim Tean?
A petition that says: abolish Alibaba and return 1000 jobs to Singaporeans (Lim Tean's petition: abolish CECA and return 2400+ jobs to Singaporeans)? Does this even make sense?
Abolish CECA and you still have 2400+ jobs to take back? Are you thinking?
If Alibaba does not feel welcome, do you still have 400 jobs? If Alibaba is 'banned', can you take back 600 jobs? Does this make sense at all?
Don't be fooled.
When a global company comes here, they bring with them some talents, they also create some jobs for Singaporeans. This is how good jobs are created for Singaporeans.
If they do not come here, if they go elsewhere, then every job they create goes to a foreigner elsewhere. It's really that simple.
