The latest data published on MOM’s official website showed Singapore has allowed in the MOST number of both Foreign PMETs with EPs & SPs (white-collared jobs) and Foreign Workers with work permits (blue-collared jobs) for the year 2019.

The total number of foreign permit and work passes given out to foreigners were 1,427,500 for the year 2019. According to the numbers which were published on the MOM website, the year 2019 was the highest when compared with all previous years.
It was close to a 3 percent increase when comparing to the year 2018. Such figures are indeed worrying for Singaporeans as many are wondering whether such an influx of foreigners would affect the rice bowls of our local Singaporeans.
