当然,那个曾今,也是PR对其他人很容易拿的日子。可是,对于那是的香港人,只要你是香港永久居民,没有犯罪历史,不需要和新加坡有任何联系,不需要新加坡的工作经历,不需要job offer, 几乎只要飞过来,就是新加坡永久居民。

Singapore
then introduced the landed permanent residence (PR) scheme for people
from Hong Kong just before 1997, wrote former civil servant Ngiam Tong
Dow in his book
A Mandarin and the Making of Public Policy: Reflections
.
He
wrote: “Other than those with criminal records, at that time, any Hong
Kong family could literally obtain PR status on arrival at Changi
Airport. Even then, many thumbed their noses at us.” [除非有犯罪经历的,那个时候,任何香港家庭只要飞来樟宜机场就能拿新加坡PR。但那个时候很多人还瞧不起我们]
实际上这个政策持续了很久,记得好像是至少1997年后10年都存在。比如,在下面这个网站上,还记载着当时申请PR的条件。其中最后一项就是针对香港人的:

F) Hong Kong Resident
Persons
born in Hong Kong or who can show proof that they have or used to have
rights of abode in Hong Kong may apply for in-principle approval for
permanent residence by submitting an application through:
香港居民
出生在香港的人士,或能够证明其现在拥有,或者曾今拥有香港居住权的人士,可以通过以下机构申请新加坡永久居住权原则批准:
SMC Management Consultants Pte Ltd
51 Cuppage Road
#04-05 StarHub Centre
Singapore 229469
Tel: 6722 1766
Fax: 6734 8373
当然这个政策随着2009年左右的大缩紧,取消了。新加坡PR现在越来越难拿。
但是现在即时再给香港人那个特权,我估计他们还是不想来。
大家认为呢?
