I’m an international student at NUS (white female American) and I would like to become a Singapore citizen.
I grew up in Chicago and I always wondered if dense urban environments could ever be safe and clean, especially for a woman. I spent a summer here as a high school exchange student and I knew quickly that Singapore is a place I wouldn’t mind spending the rest of my life in.
I tried living in Tokyo for a summer. Even though it was as clean and as safe as Singapore, there was no way I was going to fit into a non English-speaking society. I do not plan to go back to America. What are the chances that the Singapore government would award citizenship to a white American lady?
I know of several Chinese Malaysians friends who have gotten citizenships without much difficulty. It would seem that culturally, Chinese Malaysians are the most obvious candidates for citizenship in Singapore. Would appreciate it if I could get some advice on whether my ethnicity and nationality would be a problem for citizenship. Thanks a lot!
Here are what netizens think:
Get Singaporean husband would be easy way
nope as long as you hold a profession that our nation consider as a rare talent
even a Singapore husband is not a guarantee. You need a Singapore child preferably male
If u wana do it with honesty and dignity, u need to work and live in sg for few years first, then apply for PR and only if u got it then only u can apply for citizenship. If u wan shortcut, marry a local guy, thats the fastest way. Fyi, ica treats malaysian applications differently and they prioritise malaysians over all other nationalities so dont compare urself w ur Malaysian frens
Get your pr first which is dirt cheap. Then really decide if you want to be a citizens. Pr are treated almost equally to citizens, if not better. Then they will adk to be citizens. And the fun begins.
