Diary of A Singaporean Mind
2 May 2008
Our PM's main May Day message to workers is not to thank them for their hard work, acceptance of poorer terms of employment, not demanding higher pay despite inflation....his main message is Singaporean workers are now dependent on foreigners for jobs. I would like to thank the PM for reminding us that we now have zero bargaining power because there is now a huge supply of foreigners. He went on to say "they are hardworking and willing to work long hours". ...thanks for encouraging all Singaporeans on May Day to buck up for Singapore Inc. I'm so sorry we ordinary Singaporeans have disappointed our leaders so much by not working hard enough.....I do put in 13 hour work days after my small ordeal getting to work on over-crowded buses and trains but I resolve to work even harder this year.
