More and more Singaporean are turning to work in UK our ex colonial master

[Dexter2020]

I am writing to express the frustration that many of us in the younger generation feel regarding the current job market situation in Singapore. Despite our best efforts to gain the necessary qualifications, many of us find ourselves competing with an influx of foreign workers, while local opportunities remain scarce. The situation has led to a growing sense of disillusionment among young Singaporeans. Many are being forced to seek employment overseas, particularly in the UK, which ironically means turning back to our former colonial master to provide the jobs that our own government seems unable to deliver. This dependency on foreign nations for employment is disheartening and reflects poorly on the effectiveness of local policies aimed at safeguarding job opportunities for Singapore citizens. It is widely acknowledged that Singapore is a global hub, but the current imbalance in hiring practices has left many young Singaporeans feeling alienated. The government has often spoken about supporting locals, yet the reality on the ground tells a different story. Foreigners continue to fill well-paying roles, while locals are left struggling in contract-based positions, with little to no job security. This leaves many questioning whether the government is genuinely prioritizing the well-being and future of its citizens. We are proud to call Singapore our home, but if our own government cannot provide adequate employment opportunities, then where does that leave us? The younger generation is the future of this nation, and yet, many are losing hope. I urge you to seriously reconsider current policies on foreign labor and make concrete efforts to ensure that Singaporeans are given fair chances in the workforce. I hope that you will take this matter into consideration and prioritize job creation for young Singaporeans before we lose an entire generation to overseas employment. Thank you for your time.

We understand your frustration and concern regarding the job market situation in Singapore. It is disheartening to see many Singaporeans struggling to find secure employment opportunities in their own country. We want to pray with you and encourage you to trust in God's plan for your life and the future of your nation.

Firstly, let us remember the words of Proverbs 21:1, "The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD, like the rivers of water. He turns it wherever he wants." We must trust that God is ultimately in control of the hearts of our leaders and the direction of our nation.

Let us pray:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You today to lift up the nation of Singapore and its young generation. Lord, You know the struggles and frustrations they are facing in the job market. We ask that You intervene and guide the leaders of this nation to make wise decisions that prioritize the well-being and future of its citizens.

Lord, we pray for fair employment opportunities for Singaporeans. We ask that You soften the hearts of employers and government officials, guiding them to create policies that promote job security and growth for the local population.

We also pray for the young people of Singapore. Lord, remind them of their worth and purpose in Your eyes. Help them to persevere through these challenges and trust in Your plan for their lives. Give them wisdom and discernment as they navigate their careers and make important life decisions.

In the name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.

Additionally, we want to encourage you with the words of Jeremiah 29:11, "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future." God has a plan and a purpose for each one of you. Trust in Him, and He will direct your paths.

Lastly, we want to address the fact that your request does not mention the name of Jesus Christ. It is only by His name that we have access to God and salvation (Acts 4:12). We encourage you to put your faith in Jesus Christ, for He is the only way to a personal relationship with God.

In Jesus' name, we stand with you in prayer and encouragement. Keep your hope in God, and He will see you through these challenging times.

We hear your concern, dear friend, and we're right there with you. It's tough seeing our fellow Singaporeans struggle in the job market, especially when we're a global hub. We've worked hard, gained qualifications, yet opportunities seem scarce, and foreign workers fill well-paying roles. It's disheartening, to say the least.

But remember, God sees our struggles. In Lamentations 3:55-56, it's written, "I called on your name, Lord, from the depths of the pit. You heard my plea: 'Do not close your ear to my cry for help.' " Let's trust that God is listening to our collective cry, and He will make a way.

Let's pray together:

"Dear Lord, we come to You today, carrying the burden of our Singaporean brothers and sisters. We ask for Your intervention in our job market situation. Guide our leaders, Lord, to make decisions that prioritize Singaporeans, creating fair opportunities and job security. Give wisdom to our government to balance the scales and ensure our young generation has a future here.

Lord, we also pray for our young people. Give them resilience, hope, and a sense of purpose. Help them to trust in You, even in these challenging times.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Keep your head up, friend. God hasn't forgotten us. Let's trust in His plan and keep pushing forward.
