Beware of FILIPINOS
April 9, 2008
In a perfect world, Singapore seems to be the best place to live in. A stable economy and a government that really works.
But we don’t live in a perfect world. That’s is why remarks such as this will often find its way into the open:
Hi all Minority Singaporeans,
These days there are lot of filipinos in Singapore, occupying sales jobs, factory jobs, IT jobs etc etc., How come the Govt allow Filipinos to take up the sales jobs that a local singaporean can easily do? Its like whole philipines is shifting to Singapore. These fugging filipino arseholes are not only taking our jobs, but they will bully us in future. We have to worry about our children future. If this trend continues, we people will be left out and the standard of these foriengner arseholes life will be better than ours. Pls keep this in mind and never vote for this Govt again. We have to blame the local chinky baaastards also for recruiting filipinos instead of locals.

If you ask me, I think this is a pretty fair expression of one’s right to say whatever he wants to. It may have come from hatred or from an actual fact, but still, this Samurai69 has all the rights in the world to say every word he meant to.
But if there’s one thing that this particular forum pointed out, is that the main reason why Filipinos are more employable in Singapore is our good command of the English language (both written and spoken).
Eventhough that this is a classic racist remark, it’s all sticks and stones to me.
