We would like to apply for citizenship, but it's not as easy as it seems. Please be careful of what you say, because you will be offending a lot of people who genuinely care for this country and are doing all they can to assimilate and stay here and make it their permanent home.
as long as you've not given up your citizenship (regardless of whether you are trying to or otherwise), you'll be viewed as a foreigner who "makes the most out of this country but will retire comfortably back to home country". the citizens here don't enjoy this "privilege".

if you have children who are citizens, good. are they?
if you've served NS, even better. have you?
