Investigations by a tripartite panel that looks at work discrimination issues found that the accusations that employers prefer to hire foreigners over Singaporeans were invariably unfounded.
"In the cases we have intercepted, employers say this is based on the qualifications of the person and not nationalities."
-- Madam Halimah Yacob, MP of Jurong GRC, also co-chairman of the Tripartite Alliance for Fair Employment Practices (Tafep)
It is not easy to keep a straight and innocent face and convince the locals that employers really prefer them over foreigners, when on the same day the Taiwan press decided to report that Singapore is employing big time in Taiwan and willing to pay thrice what the Taiwanese are getting to lure them over.
