Vandals destroy commemorative bench

By Charlotte Callear | Bloxwich | News | Published:

A cancer survivor who has had a bench dedicated to her is too upset to comment after it was badly vandalised.

Sally Cooper, from Walsall, was eight years in remission in 2014 after being diagnosed with cervical cancer when Cancer Research UK placed a bench in her honour at Bloxwich Park.

This week the bench has been severely damaged with only the back and left side of it still standing whilst the rest is along with a nearby tree which has been torn down.

The bench which reads 'Sally Cooper loved sitting here...and still does thanks to everyone who Stands Up To Cancer', represents a difficult time in her life when she was recovering from cancer at a time when her son Martin was diagnosed with testicular cancer and later her mother Kathleen Vernon, was diagnosed with womb cancer and died in 2010.

Normally, inscribed benches commemorate those who died but Sally lived on to see it which is not as positive as it initially seems after vandals completely destroyed it.

It was placed there as one of a series of benches being put around the UK as part of Cancer Research UK's Stand Up To Cancer Campaign and was one her favourite spot where she would walk her dog and look at the flowers which she could admire when times were hard.

Mark Holden, Head of Clean and Green at Walsall Council said: “I’m appalled to see that a special bench in Bloxwich Park has been so badly vandalised. The bench was commissioned by Cancer Research UK in 2014 and dedicated to local lady Sally Cooper. It is disrespectful that this beautiful bench was so mindlessly targeted in this way.”

The damaged bench has since been collected and the commissioner of the bench which is Cancer Research UK has been contacted to see how they wish to proceed. Anyone with information has been urged to inform the police at 101, along with any other anti-social behaviour in the borough.

 Rockabilly guitar: story and style

How to play rockabilly guitar

Rockabilly style and culture

Rockabilly is one of the many great styles of music that has evolved from blues and country. Over the years boogie woogie basslines, western swing, honky tonk, and a variety of rhythm and blues based sounds morphed into the rockabilly genre. It is one of the earlier sounds to lay claim to original rock and roll, and creating many of the first rock idols.

Rockabilly even inspired the next generation of rock royalty; when they first met John Lennon was quite impressed that Paul McCartney knew all the chords and words to the Eddie Cochran song Twenty Flight Rock. Just try and listen to "Twenty Flight Rock" without tapping your foot, snapping your finger, or outright dancing!

The Rockabilly music

rockabilly guitar player The early days of rockabilly were centered around Memphis and Sun Records where Sam Phillips produced artists like Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash, and of course Elvis Presley. When Elvis recorded That's Alright Mama one hot July night in Memphis he brought the genre to greater public attention.

Later Blue Suede Shoes was one of the first major selling rockabilly songs; the song was inspired by Johnny Cash, written by Carl Perkins, and in a later version sung by Elvis! These men along with others like Gene Vincent, Bill Flagg, Charlie Rich and many more were paving the way for a new sound called rock n roll. And men weren't the only ones jumping on the rockabilly sound, Wanda Jackson the Queen of rockabilly, shows how important strong vocals are in the genre.

A powerful vocal performance is one of the many defining sounds of rockabilly. Often an upright bass is used with a slap bass technique, and of course plenty of fast and catchy guitar licks. One of the key components of the rockabilly guitar technique is specific use of Travis picking for the rhythm.

This style of picking uses the thumb to pick the bass strings on the beat, while the other fingers pick the higher strings on the offbeat. Sometimes rockabilly players aren't exact with their Travis picking, you can learn the gist of the technique with these Travis Picking free lessons

Guitar licks

When we play rockabilly on a guitar it is important to play fast and grab the listener's attention. This is why a large focus is on intro and outro guitar licks. There are quite a few famous intro lines that are easy and fun to learn. Once we get past the intro the rest of the piece is often repeated riffs with a few flourishes here and there. The scales used are minor pentatonic and blues, nothing too complicated.

Rockabilly style and rhythm

Remember rockabilly wasn't just about the music, it was a style, a look, and was and is still cool. That is the feeling you want to express when playing this genre on your guitar. It may seem a little intimidating at first, but after some time practicing with Travis picking the rhythm guitar for this genre will start to get easier. One of the hardest parts about rockabilly is just getting the "feel"  and syncopation of the rhythm down, the more you listen to rockabilly the easier this will be.

The famous 3 chords change

rock and roll Rockabilly was a shared passion among many musicians in its early days because of its musical simplicity. Most songs revolved around three chord changes and new licks were shared with excitement by guitar players. This was one of the first times in history when it became possible for budding musicians to truly emulate these new musical heroes. Think about it; jazz, big band, classical, a lot of music wasn't always within reach of a young musician.

By the mid 50's guitars were being mass produced and this new form of rock n roll wasn't to difficult to play. The best way to learn rockabilly is the same as it once was, by sharing and learning new licks. It is a genre of music that is easy to mix and match intros, riffs, and rhythms. Often learning straight from tabs isn't easy, so make sure to watch plenty of videos and listen to a lot of old records to get the technique and style right.

How to get the right rockabilly tone

Of course you can play rockabilly on an acoustic guitar, but the true sound of the genre is most prominent on an electric with the right effects. If you are learning on an electric guitar, then you may want to get some digital apps or analog pedals. Whether you use software or hardware there are a couple key components to rockabilly effects.

The number one effect is tape echo, just a little, present on nearly every rockabilly recording. The tape echo they used in the 50's was known as slap back delay and this video shows how they first came up with this sound. Of course you don't need to buy a reel to reel recorder (although I have one and I highly recommend it, if you are an audiophile!) there are many delay pedals and apps that allow for this necessary tape echo.

What about amplifiers?

Another important aspect was the right guitar amp, but many of us do not have the money to buy all original gear from the 50's so we have to find modern equipment. If you use computer or iPad apps and software most companies like Amplitube, ToneStack, Logic Pro X, and many others have specific settings for a rockabilly tone.

The mutation

psicobilly As much of an impact as rockabilly had on the history of popular music and rock, it really didn't last long at its peak. By the end of the 50's rockabilly was morphing into a variety of other styles, the guitar getting a heavier sound and songs becoming a little more complicated. It is not a genre that has disappeared though, there are plenty of new musicians who still keep it alive.

It occasionally has brief revivals like The Stray Cats, and now people play new styles called psychobilly, gothabilly, and even punkabilly. One of my favorite psychobilly players is Unknown Hinson, the genre mixes rockabilly with elements of punk, horror movies, and darker themes. The grandson of Hank Williams, Hank Williams III, is also a well known name in the modern rockabilly scene.

Conclusion and further Rockabilly guitar resources

Rockabilly never died, and it will always be popular with those who love upbeat country and blues. Still after all these years rockabilly does its job of getting folks up and dancing, it's no wonder why many consider it true rock n roll!

I Found Who I was Looking for, What Now?

  • Copy the citation below, in case you need to find this record again later.
  • Use the information found in the record to find additional land records that might have more information.
  • Use the age or estimated birth date to determine an approximate birth date to find church and vital records such as birth, baptism, marriage and death records.
  • Use the information found in the record to find immigration and probate records.
  • Use the information in each record to find additional family members in the censuses. There may be clues to maiden names if a father deeded property to his daughter upon marriage. Witnesses and neighbors may be in-laws or relatives.
  • Repeat this process with additional family member’s records to find more generations of the family.
  • Church Records were kept years before counties began keeping records. They are a good source for finding ancestors before 1900.

I Can’t Find Who I’m Looking for, What Now?

  • If your ancestor does not have a common name, collect entries for every person who has the same surname. This list can help you find possible relatives.
  • If you cannot locate your ancestor in the locality in which you believe they lived, then try searching records of a nearby town or county.
  • Try different spellings of your ancestor’s name.
  • Remember that sometimes individuals went by nicknames or alternated between using first and middle names. Try searching for these names as well.

Intentional walk / Unintentional hit

Moderator: Baseball Moderators

Pretty pathetic a major league pitcher can't throw the ball far enough away so the guy can't hit it when he's supposed to intentionally walk him.

how bout a HR off of an intentional walk? ;-D

There are many tales of Gibson's hitting prowess. Some are just for fun, like the home run he hit in Forbes Field that disappeared over the outfield wall. The next day in Philadelphia an outfielder caught a fly ball and the umpire called Gibson out - "...yesterday in Pittsburgh!" It is true he hit a ball 500 miles - it landed in a passing truck outside of the ball park! But more seriously, he is credited with the only homer ever hit completely out of Yankee Stadium, and he once hit a home run over the center field fence when the pitcher threw too close to the plate on an attempted intentional walk. He is said to have hit the longest home runs ever hit in at least three Major League parks, even though he played in them just a few times.
Hit a ball 500 miles? Only Cole Hamels can do that.

I'm pretty sure Mike Greenwell hit a triple on an intentional walk attempt. I want to say '88 or '89. But I was just a kid then.

Toys ‘R’ Us in the UK have confirmed rumours that they would be seeking a Company Voluntary Arrangement (CVA) with creditors, and are starting a programme of store closures that will see a quarter of its UK sites shut.

The company’s UK managing director, Steve Knights, said: “All of our stores across the UK remain open for business as normal through Christmas and well into the New Year. Customers can also continue to shop online and there will be no changes to our returns policies or gift cards across this period. Like many UK retailers in today’s market environment, we need to transform our business so that we have a platform that can better meet customers’ evolving needs. The decision to propose this CVA was a difficult one, but we (are) determined it is the best path forward to make essential changes to the business.”

Toys R Us said the CVA would involve not only comprehensive operational changes, but also financial restructuring.

Commenting on the impact on staff, Mr Knights added: “We recognise this process will affect many of our team members and their families, so we are committed to keeping all of our staff informed throughout this process.”

A Company Voluntary Arrangement is an insolvency procedure which enables a business with significant debt problems to reach a voluntary agreement with its creditors regarding repayment of all, or part of its debts.  It essentially buys the company time to get its ship in order, as evidenced here in TRU using the time bought to restructure its shop portfolio.  Time will tell if it is enough to save the long-established player in the UK retail market.

Fastly Blog

The fallacy of fast: Ines Sombra at Altitude 2015

We hosted our first-ever customer summit in June of last year, with the goal of bringing together our customers and the people who build our products to discuss web performance, Varnish, and the future of Fastly. There were a variety of interesting presentations, including GitHub’s Joe Williams on mitigating security threats and Network Engineer João Taveira on building and scaling the Fastly network.

Systems Engineer Ines Sombra’s Altitude 2015 talk, “The fallacy of fast,” reflects on the shortcuts we tend to take when we iterate quickly, both within our organization and our own codebases.

Ines summed up her talk with a tl;dr (too long; didn’t read):

The talk focuses on two main areas: common mistakes and what really matters.

Common mistakes

Some mistakes made during the development process can accidentally de-emphasize the stability of your system. In an effort to get something done quickly, we tend to unknowingly sacrifice overall quality and this can happen with both large and small organizational decisions.

Below are some common mistakes:

De-prioritizing areas, such as:

  • Testing
    • Cutting corners on testing carries a hidden cost. If you don’t prioritize testing, you may be sending the message that quality is not that important to your organization.
    • Test the full system, including client, code, provisioning code, etc. E.g., if you have a system set up with Chef, the cookbook that sets up your application needs to be tested.
    • Code reviews are important but they aren’t a substitute for tests.
    • Monitor how tests perform over time — the quality and breadth of your tests tend to correlate to application stability.
  • Operations. Every system has operational tasks associated with it. As Ines noted, “When you cut corners, everything will screw you over at the worst possible moment and you will have to fix it on the spot.”
    • Taking automation shortcuts will come back to haunt you.
    • Playbooks are a must, and we emphasize them within Fastly as well. Make sure your applications are self-documented and carry good playbooks, which explain how your system gets configured, where things are, inter-system dependencies, and how the system looks when it’s operating correctly (and when it’s not).
    • Release stability is often tied to system stability. Ines cautioned: “Iron out your deploy process!” A lot of manual steps are not going to be as stable as a mechanized process.
  • Insight / Observability
    • Prioritize monitoring. Your system is not production-ready if you punt on monitoring. It shouldn’t be in production if you don’t have a way to track it over time.
    • Alert fatigue has a cost — when you get used to alerts popping up you get desensitized and start ignoring them. This can be dangerous; don’t let it get that far.
    • Link alerts to playbooks to make sure remediation steps are documented. This is especially helpful for new hires on call.
    • Don’t ignore error handling and security. You can have catastrophic failures because errors don’t get bubbled up effectively.
  • Knowledge
    • The inner workings of data components matter. Learn about them.
    • System boundaries ought to be made explicit. The dependencies of your system should be made clear, e.g. if your system depends on a database you need to have an idea of how this database works.
    • Deprecate your go-to person. Having a person with certain knowledge is dangerous. Use playbooks to share knowledge among people in your organization.

What we’ve learned:

  • Don’t sacrifice tests. Test the full system, including the provisioning code.
  • Service ownership implies leveling-up operationally, especially with microservices: you have responsibility over the services you own.
  • Architectural choices made in a rush have a long life, and could lead to increased difficulty to change things when you actually need it.

What matters

Mind your system design.

  • Simple and utilitarian design takes you a long way.
  • Use well-understood components. They’re well-understood and boring for a reason — you can trust them.
  • Use feature flags and on/off switches (test them!). These let you do graceful degradation.

Mind your system limits.

  • Rate-limit your API calls (especially if they are public or expensive to run).
  • Instrument / add metrics to track them.
  • Rank your services and data. What is critical to the functioning of your system, and what can you drop? E.g., shutting off expensive / noncritical services can provide some stability during an attack.
  • Capacity analysis is not dead, and offers value even if your app lives on the cloud. The exercise of thinking about resources, limits, and how they tie to customer value is a worthwhile activity.

Mind your system configuration.

  • System assumptions are dangerous. E.g., if you expect your system to always be colocated with another system, that dependency must be undone when you want to separate them (and most times you’ll forget it’s there).
  • Standardize the way you do system configuration (for example: using data bags vs config files to do a similar job is confusing).
  • “Hardcoding is the devil.” Something that makes a hardcoded assumption will come back to bite you later, especially when it comes to localhost.

Distrust is healthy.

  • Distrust client behavior. “It’s not like everyone is out to get you and you should be paranoid,” Ines said. “But sometimes your clients, even if they are internal, can actually hurt your application.” Consider the possibility of unexpected behaviors so you can guard your application while in design.
  • Decisions have an expiration date. Periodically re-evaluate them, because “past you was much dumber.” Just because you decided on a solution years ago it doesn’t mean you shouldn’t re-evaluate it.
  • A revisionist culture produces more robust systems. Resisting means you have a problem.

What we’ve learned:

  • Keep track of your technical debt and regularly repay it.
  • Actively lower the risk of change with tools and culture. Tests and continuous integration allow you to iterate quickly and safely. System quality is our goal, and we need tools and processes that allow us to iterate towards it.

You can watch the video of Ines’ talk here, and read the full recap of Altitude 2015 for more information about the event. We invite all of our customers to join us for this year’s Altitude summit on July 21 in San Francisco — RSVP to reserve your spot.

Top 5 Most Popular Beverages Photographed Using a Microscope

Wine electron microscope William LeGoulion photographyWine

William LeGoullon often credits his devotion to and engagement with the Phoenix arts community as one of his driving inspirations and has actively supported his local interest for over 10 years. Since receiving his BFA from the Herberger Institute of Design and the Arts at Arizona State University in 2009, he has exhibited extensively throughout the state and participated in national juried exhibitions. Of this series, Fingerprints of Drinkable Culture, he writes:

‘My latest works express my fascination with beverages, the variety of methodical processes through which we craft them, and the detailed makeup of each liquid we drink. Stemming from my work as both an artist and as a barista and bartender, my interest is in concocting a recipe of beverage culture, art, and science with regard to what we as humans consume. I am continually inspired by observing what has been left behind and the clues that inspire examination. In this series, I treat the world’s top five most consumed man-made beverages like scientific specimens, allowing each liquid sample to dry before photographing them using a microscope. The resulting images provide us with a chance to analyze these fingerprints of drinkable culture as an act of art consumption.’

This document has been published in the Federal Register. Use the PDF linked in the document sidebar for the official electronic format.

Start Preamble

Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange Commission, Office of Filings and Information Services, Washington, DC 20549.

Rule 19b-7 and Form 19b-7; SEC File No. 270-495; OMB Control No. 3235-0553.

Notice is hereby given that pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,[1] the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (“OMB”) a request for extension of the previously approved collection of information discussed below.

Rule 19b-7 (Security Futures Product Rule Changes) requires every self-regulatory organization that is an exchange registered with the Commission pursuant to Section 6(g) [2] or that is a national securities association registered pursuant to Section 15A(k) [3] to file with the Commission, in accordance with such rules as the Commission may prescribe, copies of any proposed rule change or any proposed change in, addition to, or deletion from the rules of such self-regulatory organization (“proposed rule change”) that relates to higher margin levels, fraud or manipulation, recordkeeping, reporting, listing standards, or decimal pricing for security futures products, sales practices for security futures products for persons who effect transactions in security futures products, or rules effectuating such self-regulatory organization's obligation to enforce the securities laws.

Advisory Committee on Private International Law Request for Public Comments on a Draft UN Convention on Electronic Commerce

Document Details

Information about this document as published in the Federal Register.

Published Document

This document has been published in the Federal Register. Use the PDF linked in the document sidebar for the official electronic format.

Start Preamble

Summary: Comment is sought on a draft UNCITRAL convention (multilateral treaty) on use of electronic messaging in the formation of contracts and related matters. Completion of the convention is possible by the Fall of 2005; it is then optional for member States to accept and implement the convention. Advisory Committee meetings will be held as indicated below; additional meetings will be scheduled after the next UNCITRAL Working Group meeting in mid-October to review changes to the draft text. Persons not able to attend are welcome to provide comments at any time as indicated below.

Request for Comments: The Office of Legal Advisor of the Department of State requests comments on the current and future drafts of a convention under consideration by the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL), through its Working Group IV on electronic commerce, designed to promote basic enabling laws on enforceability of electronic messaging related to contractual matters. The draft may encompass default rules on dispatch and receipt, error correction in automated transactions, location for purposes of applying the convention and for determining applicable law, and other matters affecting international electronic transactions within its scope.

Documentation: The current draft, Working Group IV's recent document WP.110, can be obtained on UNCITRAL's Web site at (http://Start Printed PageEnglish/workinggroups/wgIVec/index.htm). Commentators may wish to review additional documents therein listed, including reports of prior Working Group meetings, Secretariat analyses, and other matters.

Project Timing: The UNCITRAL Working Group, composed of member and observer States and participants from other governmental and non-governmental organizations, will review the current draft text in mid-October at United Nations offices in Vienna, Austria, and a revised draft is expected to be available for comment by mid-November. The revised text will be reviewed by the Working Group at its next meeting in April 2005 in New York. If sufficient progress has been made and if support from enough countries is evidenced, the text could be finalized at UNCITRAL's annual Plenary session in July 2005. If that is not feasible, a text could be completed at the next succeeding annual plenary session in mid-2006. Once completed and if endorsed by the UN General Assembly, consideration would be given in the United States whether and on what terms to join the new treaty, or implement it in another manner, and whether to promote its adoption by other States.

Overview: As now drafted, the convention is intended to expand a common base-line between participating States of general principles applying to electronic transactional communications. These principles are largely drawn from relevant parts of the 1996 UNCITRAL Model law on Electronic Commerce, as well as similar provisions in uniform state laws and federal law adopted in the United States, including the 1999 Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA), and the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (“E-Sign”), enacted by Congress in 2000. In addition to commercial transactions within its scope that cross State boundaries, the proposed convention would also apply to transactions governed by certain listed UN commercial law conventions and to such other treaties and international agreements as may be agreed upon by participating States. As an overlay to existing laws, the convention would be designed to promote harmonized rules and fill gaps between the laws that may otherwise apply, thus promoting efficiency and certainty in cross-border transactions. Particular notice should be given to certain provisions of the draft convention: Article 2 on general exclusions from the convention; Article 3 on party autonomy, which permits parties to vary or modify the convention's terms as to their transactions; Article 8, which provides that parties cannot be obligated by this treaty to use e-messages; and Article 18, which allows each country to exclude such further matters as it deems appropriate. Finally, as the present draft indicates, it is expected that a number of optional provisions (called declarations) will permit States to further modify certain provisions from time to time. That flexibility, as well as the optional exclusions in article 18, would allow adjustment of the rules to specific classes of transactional activity, as usages change and the needs of electronic commerce grow over time.

Commentators should take into account the provisions of current laws in the United States noted above, as well as other state and federal law. Attention should also be given to existing legal treatment in other countries and in regional bodies such as the European Union, as well as relevant treaties and international agreements.

Public Comment: Comments can be sent to the Office of the Assistant Legal Adviser for Private International Law of the Department of State in any form addressed to Harold S. Burman (L/PIL) 2430 E Street, NW., Suite 355 South Building,Washington, DC 20037-2800, or by fax to (202) 776-8482, or by e-mail to

Meeting(s): Persons wishing to attend one or more public meetings or to receive direct notice of further convention drafts and other information may do so by contacting Cherise Reid at or by fax at (202) 776-8482 with their names, contact numbers, including e-mail addresses, and affiliations, if any. Meetings are expected to be scheduled in the week of September 13 in the Washington, DC metropolitan area in conjunction with a forum on CEFACT, a body of the UN's Economic Commission for Europe, and additional meetings are expected to be scheduled after release of the next revised draft convention in November 2004.

Rural Housing Service

Title: Single Family Housing Guaranteed Loan Program.

OMB Control Number: 0575-0179.

Summary of Collection: The Housing and Community Facilities Program (HCFP), herein referred to as the “Agency,” is a credit agency for the Rural Housing Service (RHS) of the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The Agency offers supervised credit programs to build modest housing and essential community facilities in rural areas. Section 517(d) of Title V of the Housing Act of 1949, as amended, provides the authority for the Secretary to issue loan guarantees for the acquisition of new or existing dwellings and related facilities to provide decent, safe, and sanitary living conditions and other structures in rural areas. The Single Family Housing Guaranteed Loan Program (SFHGLP) was authorized under the Cranston-Gonzalez National Affordable Housing Act. The purpose of SFHGLP is to assist low and moderate-income individuals and families in acquiring or constructing a single-family residence in a rural area with loans made by private lenders.

Need and Use of the Information: Information is collected from both a potential homebuyer and lender. To participate in the program, lenders must submit to standards which ensure the loan objectives of the SFHGLP are met. The lender submits qualifications to the Agency and enters into an agreement that outlines both the lender and Agency's commitments and responsibilities under the guaranteed program. Information from a homebuyer includes financial documents such as confirmation of household income, assets and liabilities, a credit record, evidence the homebuyer has adequate repayment ability for the loan amount requested and if the condition and location of the property meet program guidelines. All information collected is vital for the Agency to determine if borrowers qualify for all assistance for which they are eligible.

This is a reinstatement with changes of a previously approved collection.

Description of Respondents: Business or other for-profit; State, Local or Tribal Government.

Number of Respondents: 3,581.

Frequency of Responses: Reporting: Monthly; Quarterly; Annually.

Total Burden Hours: 789,139.

“Singaporeans first” – what is it all about?

Philippines’s popular fast food chain Jollibee opened its doors in Singapore two weeks ago. Quite an exciting news for food-loving Singaporeans, right?

But the situation turned a little sour when rumours started spreading on the company’s alleged preference towards Filipino workers; angry Singaporeans even threatened to boycott the restaurant!

In the end, the company officially declared that the rumours were false, and the fast food joint was able to open its doors without major incidents.

The important takeaway, in my opinion, was that discrimination against Singaporeans should not be allowed. After all, if we saw a job advertisement like the one below, it will confirm make our blood boil right?

Sadly, this is not an isolated incident. A Yahoo! article in 2011 reported on a company which came under fire for a recruitment advertisement for an Architectural Structural coordinator – get this – with “preferred Indian citizenship”.

This issue was also further triggered by an article in the Lianhe Zaobao, when the Tripartite Alliance for Fair Employment Practices (TAFEP) came out to confirm that there has been a rise in number of complaints of unfair hiring practices towards Singaporeans in the financial institutions. In this case, these organisations were contacted and promised to monitor the situation more closely to ensure that hiring was based on merit.

Cannot la, this is ridiculous! Most would agree that this is an obvious discrimination in the work environment.

Can you imagine if people were to do such things in Europe or in the US? People would be called racist, they’d be taken to court, and maybe even lose their business license!

However, taking a step back, does this mean that the “Singaporeans first” policy is also a form of discrimination too? In favour of the Singaporeans, that is.

Some might argue, yes, it is discrimination. Just like how employers should not hire a person based on race, gender, or appearance, nationality should not be a factor either.

I am of the other perspective though, that this is not discrimination but just a matter of re-prioritisation.

We are not forbidding or stopping businesses from hiring foreigners, but only doing so if there are no qualified locals to take the job.

After all it makes sense to put this into practice – the government needs to look after the interest of its people first. This is what makes being a citizen more valuable than a PR or a foreigner. This is what makes me want to continue living and contributing to the economy here.

The same practice can be seen in countries like Malaysia and Australia. Some companies in the US, like HyPro, are also committed to hiring qualified locals first before moving on to applicants of other nationalities.

These are all different forms of affirmative actions based on nationality, and are steps in the right direction to ensure jobs are being made available to the citizens.

As Singapore looks to reduce the number of foreign labour, perhaps we can look to Hong Kong and its policies. Although the country has a large expatriate population, employers who want to hire a foreigner must prove that the job cannot be done by a local. They must also match compensation and benefits to current market rates to prevent managers from finding lower-cost replacements.

Along with other policies such as higher levies and tighter quotas of foreign workers, hopefully organisations can be more active in recruiting and developing Singaporean talent to promote a true “Singaporeans first” work environment.
