贸工部长陈振声指出,2015到2018年之间,平均本地每六份新增工作,五份由本地公民获得,只有一份是永久居民取得。 在上述三年中,有将近6万份新增工作,他指其中公民取得5万份,而永久居民占9000份。 此前,阿裕尼集选区议员毕丹星曾在国会询问,上述三年公民和永久居民就业率的对比。他也提及通常政府把“本地人”都涵括公民和永久居民。 新加坡经济发展局今日召开常年工作检讨说明会,陈振声是在说明会前接受媒体采访时这么表示。 陈振声指出,我国去年吸引的固定资产投资达到152亿元,料将创造逾三万份就业机会。 他强调这些就要特机会不仅惠及年轻一代,也会确保中年或年长员工受益;在来临的预算案,将加大力度,透过再培训协助中年就业人士。 在本月6日的国会交锋,对于毕丹星的提问,陈振声直言“我可以给你数据,但这么问背后意义又是什么?” “本地失业率有提升吗?很明显不是…我们的薪资增长了吗?肯定的,且比起其他国家更快。这都说明我们为国人做的是对的。” 他表示对于“新加坡人和国人”对立的观点保持谨慎,这似乎在暗示国人没有从中受益。 与此同时,国家发展部兼人力部政务部长扎吉哈也揭露,从2015年至2018年,不包括外籍女佣在内,上述领域就业人数增长达1万9500人。 其中新加坡公民增长9300人,而永久居民8600人。至于外籍人士减少2万8500人。
