My condolences. The granting of citizenship seems rather erratic to me, based upon the stories told on this forum. It would suggest that there is a great deal of internal disagreement within the gahmen over the "best" type of citizens Singapore should naturalize.

I actually had high hopes, I know I dont earn much but I do some niche research work that was featured in the few local and international newspapers including NY times.

Oh well, moral of the story is, I guess, race should be right! I really thought my work is going to supersede my race.

On the bright side, we are getting about quarter million if we withdraw our CPF
