Ideas for Singapore

[tanjm]

Introduce Open Bidding COE (Certificate of Employment):

A vibrant economy needs all kinds of skills or even not so high skills but pure drive. Most great cities or countries are welcoming to foreign workers.

Any kind of effort to limit foreign worker inflow with a blunt instrument would just lead to companies leaving Singapore wholesale - losing jobs for Singaporeans as well. For this point, I'm pretty much in agreement with the government.

My own suggestion on this point would not penalise the foreign labor directly, and would redistribute any levies back to corporations in general (revenue neutral).
