The truth about the pte sector and MNC is that they take care of their HQ employees development first, and they play the games according to local rules. This means locals will forever be lowly executives with increasing paycheck and at risk of being made redundant in the long run. (Got too expensive for unimportant roles)
I think such persons on "secondment" should be discouraged. Singapore has plenty of talent already. Besides, most persons who come on secondment from Philippines, India, China are actually no good but they boss around the Singaporeans.
