Are you sure all the Singaporean are like what you say? to my opinion, i think the foreigner are spoiling the Singapore market... if an undergrad foreigner willing to accept $1500 as the starting pay, Singaporean undergrad is not able to raise their salary expectation as employer would benchmark at $1500 for the starting pay. Thinking the fact that the high cost of living in Singapore for a Singaporean compare to the lower cost of living on the foreigner country, which the foreigner simply can earn enough and go back live like a king... it's hard to compare apple to orange, hope you know what i mean
