Hard-earned Certificates are the real mccoy!

其他国家的孩子中途要来我国上课就得做降两级的插班生,因为我们的教育文凭比更较受国际承认。

一些聪敏的外国人就会选择继续留在他们自己的国家读完大学或是以其他途径打印一张"大学文凭",再来我国找工作。他们知道他们的大学文凭是符合政府就业准证条件又不用降两级,一些雇主为了降低营业成本也不肯不花费请人验证就聘请他们。

可怜的父母们辛苦以劳力换取微博的薪金来栽培自己的孩子, 如今却看到其他国家的人凭一张从打印机打出来的一张彩色证书,就把咱们的孩子老老实实靠实力埋头苦读最少15年得到的大学文凭给压下来。

怪不得最近我们老是听到一些部长们一直在高喊"文凭不重要"。不知道到底执政党是为国人的将来发展这个国家,还是要把我们的国土变成其他国家的公民提供"欢乐园"有以巩固他们自己的政权呢?

你们的看法又如何?

For foreign students to come to Singapore to continue with their studies, they are required to downgrade by two grades because our educational standard is more recognized on an international level.

The smarter foreign kids would choose to remain in their hometown to complete their studies and obtain degrees in their local universities; some would seek out alternative means to attain the "Bachelor's Degree", and then come to Singapore to find employment. They know that their local university degrees are able to fulfill the requirements for the relevant employment passes, and they needn't undergo two levels of downgrade. Some employers would hire these foreign applicants so as to save costs.

The most sorry cases are the parents who have spent so much time and efforts working hard to groom and nurture their own children, just to see 15 years of their diiligent efforts being defeated by a colorfully-printed certificate produced by those who hail from overseas.

No wonder lately, we keep hearing certain ministers saying that "certifications are not important". I wonder if the ruling party is developing this country because of the citizens, or are turning our lands into the foreigners' "playgrounds" in consolidation of their regime?
