Yesterday, PAP’s Tan See Leng shared in parliament that the proportion of Employment Pass (EP) holders from India doubled to 25 per cent last year, from 14 per cent in 2005.

A taxi driver finds it sad that educated youths are turning to private hire instead of getting proper jobs that match their qualifications. Why is it so difficult to get a job in Singapore nowadays? Why is it so poorly managed?

I refer to the article “Parliament: Some 1,800 foreign pupils who applied to enter Primary 1 this year rejected” (Straits Times, Oct 2).

A taxi driver shared this funny but sad encounter during one of his trips from Singapore's iconic Marina Bay Sands to their condominium.
