We are talking about the current status quo which disadvantages male Singaporean doctors against foreign doctors for consultant posts. There's no policy reason to preserve the status quo disadvantage when Singapore males have done a valuable service for the nation.
Thats why foreign doctors who live and work in the safety of Singapore should be forced to contribute 1-5% of their pay to a National Service-in-lieu Fund to benefit under-privileged Singaporeans. No more I-save-babies-so-I-dont-need-to-serve-NS excuse to take advantage of Singapore's infrastructure and FT-friendly policies while discriminating against local born medicos.

This would make it a more level playing field for Singaporean males considering they are inherently disadvantaged against.
