If companies want to throw out workers who become less productive as they age, they shouldn’t complain about people not wanting work for them.

About the motorcycle thing. If you dare to do is up to you. Just don’t let retribution get you.
Oh boo hoo. Let me play a sad song on the world’s smallest violin

Wah, sound quite bitter. But this is Singapore, we are a capitalist society. I think one of the things that Singapore govt failed really badly is keeping cost of living down, which will really drive up local wages since most of us needs to survive here. So there is a point that the JHK, with the 3.4 exchange rate, is probably in a better boat than many of us who are living in Singapore. But our inability to compete with others, is also part of our own problem i.e. we are simply not good enough, not delivering enough value vs our pay. So if employers can hire two JHK at the same pay as me and they can deliver more, then clearly the employer should do that. Employers are not charities. Actually, I agree that employers should throw out their workers when they outlive their usefulness, unfortunately, the labour laws in Singapore are not easy to do that. Many who feel entitled, would want employers to keep them and come up with 1001 reasons why. For this group, unless they own the issue, they may keep living in bitterness. To be clear, I am not saying that the other parties are without fault. I am more capitalist in nature and thinks the govt should do less, and posting in this topic, I am sure that many of you would disagree. But I have been brought up to never depend on others but myself.

Yesterday, a motorcyclist slipped on the expressway and i stopped my car to check if he was ok. Well, he only complained why nobody stopped to help him. Seeing that he was fine and not bleeding and had a lot of energy to complain, I drove off and I didn't even feel bad about doing so because it was quite clear to me that he didn't need, but expected help. How many of us reading this, belong to this group?
I, on the other hand, totally disagree. I think we need more foreigners in the country. As an employer employing both foreigners and singaporean, I think some Singaporeans need a kick up their teeth to wake up. Competition is getting more and more stiff but some Singaporeans only think about themselves trying to short change the company by asking for the sky yet deliver very little, have no motivation to strive to do more and always think they are entitled to more despite contributing very little and complain alot. On the other hand, i dare say vast majority of my malaysian employees are hardworking, don't complain as much and is ready to work extra hours even during weekend. That's why I am inclined to pay them more and promote them faster. They are also more innovative, don't tell me 10001 reason why something cannot be done and give solutions around it. Ultimately our goals are similar i.e. make the company profitable, grow the company defend it against competitor and share the profits.

Remember, companies pay for value. They don't pay you to maintain your living cost. That's on you to manage yourself. Salary offered and cost of living is mutually exclusive. I think having too much protectionist policies will only hamper businesses and destroy the country.

That's a stupid move and in the end it will back fire on you because the Singaporean will jump ship after 1-2 years and you will have to spend time constantly training news ones and those new one that come in will demand more and work less. Always give excuses and think they are Singaporeans therefore they are entitled to more pay, less work and less responsibility.

How come Singaporeans cannot be entitled? Who come stop them? Even JHK and Ceca bangla are entitled also. So why Singaporeans in their own country cannot be entitled?

There’s where you are wrong. JHK complain and eat snake just as much as Locals. But they can say they earn less so they should do less. Everytime I see one JHK relaxing one corner, I sure go and complain to make sure he gets it.
