to prevent government officials from flaming my blog in the event that they somehow made their way here.. i better keep this short and sweet..
*calls NUS helpline*
me: may i ask if PRs are eligible to apply for NUS scholarships?
NUS: yes you may apply, but chances of you getting it is very very slim. It is very unlikely that you will get it
and tt was the only scholarship that i wanted to apply for..
really.. its not about the amount of money that im trying to save.. its more of the way they are discriminating against PRs =.=
so much for the effort that the government is trying to put in to attract foreign talents.. yes you can say that there are some scholarships which are given to foreigners as well.. but you know what? since i am PR i dont even think im considered to be in the category of çitizens of indonesia' by the simple logic that the deadline of university application for international students probably closed long ago..and by now they should have shortlisted their candidates .. so what im a PR and im neither here nor there.. =.=
and i have to pay the same amt of CPF as singaporeans?
yes yes.. pls take away more priviledges from us PRs =.=.. isnt that what the government have been doing the past few months? kinda resigned to the fate already..
grrr.. bad mood ):
