firegold 99, don't worry, you are free to express your opinion and comment. I believe, so far you did not give us any reason to nuke you.

But that can always change. I haven't nuked you either. Yet.

The moderators on THIS forum follow our on rule book. We care less what you may read on other forums FAQs. If you want to continue your postings here, you would be doing yourself a favour by remembering that. We don't take to threats easily either, especially from Non-Expats considering this IS an EXPAT forum.

Have a good evening. But it also might be wise to brush up on your English as you do seem to have a problem with reading comprehension and expressing yourself in a matter that English speaking people find extremely difficult to understand. As I said earlier, SGForums might be a better place for you to post as most there speak with just about the same level of English as you do.

Unfortunately, his English is on such a poor level as to make it (a) difficult to understand what he is trying to say and (b) in some cases ambiguous and thus impossible to comment on. We all know it is not his/her official language, but in order to participate in a discussion like this successfully, a higher level than he commands would be required.

This may sound harsh, but my suggestion to him is to improve his English so he can express what he wants to express.

Which was tied in closely with my recommendation to stay on SGForums. :wink:

It really is hard to understand what firegold 99 is actually trying to say. Presumably s/he is a product of the 'world class' Singapore education system, yet woefully incapable of expressing him/herself in a coherent fashion.

One thing I have observed though is that when someone starts a sentence with the phrase
firegold 99 wrote:I am not being racist or anything ...
... it is often followed (intentionally or otherwise) by comments that many would classify in that category. For example...
firegold 99 wrote:The foreigner is one problems that the government is working on ...
... shows that our friend regards the presence of us foreigners as a 'problem' that the gahmen needs to 'solve' in some way. Personally I'm getting sick and tired of this kind of attitude - without the foreigners here the economy would collapse and very little actual (real) work would ever get done. Sure, there'd still be a lot of meetings, but not much else.

As to the rest of firegold 99's ramblings, I won't comment as I genuinely can't figure out much of what s/he is on about.
Be careful what you wish for
