I am not making fun I am stating facts and further you should go one your
knees and thank this govt and the people who allow you to come here and earn
your living - you will no doubt be having your family in India where you
send remittances - but if you had you family stay in Singapore then you
might feel the pinch of earning your present salary.

Do not believe for an instant that the locals cannot do your job and that
they are earning the fruits of your labour - those earning the fruits of
your labour are your employers govt or otherwise not Singaporeans on the
streets as they do not find the logic that you are taking their jobs from
them because you find it affordable to earn here and keep your family in
India where costs are no comparison.

We the people of Singapore built this Singapore metropolis and not the govt
ministers who are just ****ers and parasites of our efforts. Remember this
and what we built we hope you do not destroy.

shifting responsiblity to "others"?

Here in Australia people get paid for the job they're doing
so the Indians don't get any unfair advantages (for the most
part) by being willing to take a lower wage. India is a
country that produces good IT professionals, but that's more
in volume than quality, we have plenty homebred that are
just as good, and our wage system protects us from being
flooded by people taking a wage and sending it overseas, as
does our immigration policy that knocks back skillsets that
are currently glutted (like IT). The sinister shadow that is
looming over us however is outsourcing. You can pay Indian's
at home to do a good job for peanuts, and many companies are
going down that track. And like you I wonder what these
companies are going to end up doing to the home sector by
outsourcing to sweatshop zones for development work.
Suddenly no-one at home will be skilled (what will be the
point in learning these skills if all the work goes OS?) and
we'll have a liability and a dependancy. Spose you've got to
give it to them, they're taking advantage of the market like
anyone else would.
