In the end of the day, i foresee Singaporeans moving out to other countries to work. Seen a lot of my frens doing that in recent years. Some moved to China, some to Thailand, some vietnam, Australia, NZ, UK, states canada you name it. Most of them loved it there and the only reason why they come back, is because of their family and frens.

Just ask Winston if he wants to forgo vietnam to come back to Sg and work.

Why the hell he wants to come back if he's in vietnam??

I thought we all come from Africa? Or maybe just Nat Geo...

LOL i oso saw that documentary... tracing dna...

but thought we all came either :
1) from the dust of the ground and was given the breath of life by God or
2) from an amoeba and slowly evolved as Darwin and Science would like us to believe to who we r today...

but seriously we are all here on this planet given basically the same physical attributes (cept for e unfortunate ones who lost eyes and limbs) regardless of skin color so we shd just live and let live n continue to be poisoned n play more golf....

I think the question will be if we talent search a local born Singaporean and provide everything like what are given to the foreign talents, will he/she be able to produce the same result? Who is willing to do that? Will the parents allow their children to take this route? Sports career are short, Singapore still does not have the market for sportsperson after they retire from competitive sports.

Just like any job that Singaporeans don't want or cannot deliver, we have to get FT.Be it the lowly HDB cleaner to the ping pong girls.
Fact of life.

Either live with it or you can take up the challenge and be a sports person.

Think about it 250K for 4 yrs of sweat and pain, it's not alot to go by when your career ends in your 30s.
