2 China ‘Scholars’ Run Away from JC
Just got this report on my table.2 China scholars from Anderson Junior College were found absent from class for several days. When school staff checked their hostel, they found that the students had packed up and gone to USA!
Apparently these ’smart’ students found out that they don’t need A level results to gain entry into US universities. They secretly applied for an American University. When they got accepted by one, bought their air-tickets and then run!
What can the Singapore Government do? Sue them? Recover our money? They were not bonded wor.
Many more foreign students will follow their example.
Caught on audio : 世上没有免费的午餐？有！在新加坡！ 给你吃，给你住，给你上学。念完了，咱拍拍屁股走人！一分钱也不用还。 新加坡政府， 笨！ 哈哈哈！
These students were brought over to study in Secondary 3. Gifted? Many are older than our local Secondary 3 students.
When I was in China recruiting students to study in Singapore, I often receive money sandwiched within the pages of application forms. Some Chinese parents mistook that I was recruiting ASEAN scholars for the Singapore Government. The highest amount I found was US$8,000. All the money was returned. Can you imagine when the real actual people go recruiting ……
Shockingly, these foreign ASEAN scholars only need to pass one subject to stay on. Not like Singaporean students, must pass English Language and another how many subjects ah?
Our Government sets aside huge amounts of China Fund for schools to recruit these students. Now, I heard another Indian Fund is set up. Wow!
Singaporeans are always the losers.
I’m tracking these 2 China students down …. I have their photos and particulars, thanks to my sources. Details should be coming in…..
Update : Police, CPIB, PM Office…. they are going to be busy. I’m going to be dead. Going into hiding.

what can you do about them?
Its outside your jurisdiction, right?
i think u seriously need to check your facts, weikiat.
ASEAN scholars whose results are anything less than stellar get their scholarships withdrawn. i’ve seen it happen to too many friends.
don’t over-sensationalize. when it becomes overdone, u may be sued for libel.
Hi DaphneMaia,
Asean scholars DO need to maintain a certain standard in order to stay in Singapore, but a large majority of foreign students in NTU,NUS are here on BONDLESS bursaries…YES…you can check with any of your contacts in ntu or nus.
Last I heard is that these students are at least expected to work in Singapore after graduation for a couple of years but more often than not, they’ll leave singapore should they get the chance. Its rather easy and the school/statutory board can’t do much about it.

Well, the government is trying its best to attract foreign talent, by throwing out taxpayers’ money, in the form of scholarships, as though it were dirt. Unfortunately, of the many foreign scholars the government attracts, the ones who do better in school (including some of my friends) have no intention of staying here. Singapore is, to them, merely a stepping stone for entry into top universities in the United States and, to a lesser extent, the United Kingdom.
