近日，一封希望减少在新加坡工作的菲律宾工人数量的公开信在菲律宾网络上流传。
这封信写给新加坡总理李显龙，是由一名叫加法里·巴斯伦（Jafri Basron）的人所写。巴斯伦在信中说，他代表普通新加坡人，对持新加坡就业准证（EP）和新加坡S准证的菲律宾工人的“涌入”感到担忧。
他称，在新加坡工作的菲律宾人数量剧增，引起“当地社区的社会问题和居民的不满”，新加坡人不得不相互争抢，只为保住自己的饭碗。巴斯伦还说，菲律宾人“几乎占领了就业领域的各个阶层”，使新加坡人难以找到工作。雇主更喜欢菲律宾工人，不是因为他们经验丰富、专业，而是因为与新加坡同行相比，他们更愿意接受较低的工资。“如此不公平，不合理的做法是不适当的，”巴斯伦说。
巴斯伦还补充道，一些菲律宾人在社交媒体上发布对新加坡人和穆斯林“具有进攻性和挑衅性的帖子”。1月9日，新加坡陈笃生医院就解雇了一名菲律宾护士，因她在社交媒体上发布了“攻击性”言论。该内容被描述为“对新加坡和宗教非常不负责任和攻击性。”巴斯伦呼吁新加坡政府避免雇用菲律宾工人，因为有其他国家的工人“既好又能干”。
争议：新加坡本为一个开放性的移民国家，但是，近年来，部分新加坡人一直呼吁政府收紧移民政策，减少外来工作人员，以确保国人的工作机会。 
在此情形下，很多经商业者却表示不满，因为这无形增加了很多人力成本，而且很多业者觉得本国员工对薪水要求过高，但实际付出却不够多。此外，一些移民专家同样指出新加坡本应该吸引外来人员来新工作，这种良性的社会竞争才能促进国家的更好发展，否则只能助长国人“Kiasu（怕输）”的情结。
新加坡网民请命书原文
Honourable Prime Minister Mr Lee Hsien Loong
Prime Minister Office
Dear Sir,
I’m writing this note to represent the concern of ordinary Singaporean over the perceived influx of Filipinos holding Employment Pass (EP) and the S-Pass in the employment sector.
The huge numbers of the Filipinos workers in Singapore is causing social problems and resentment among the local community who are struggling to keep their jobs or unable to find suitable employment due to the present of the Filipinos workers in almost every strata of the employment sector.
From my personal experience, the Filipinos workers are not truly well experience and professional in their works except that they’re willing to accept lower pays than the Singapore workers. This has lead to the employers preferring the Filipinos over Singaporean. Such unfair and unreasonable practice is unbecoming. Singaporean has to seek reasonable and realistic wages from their employer as the cost of living is high and their financial commitments are heavy.
Lately; several offensive and provocative posting were made in the cyber media by some Filipinos towards Singaporean in general and the Muslim community. The unbecoming conduct is a result of the Filipinos workers failed to assimilate and conforming to the local society.
Lastly, I seek that the relevant Government agency reduce their provision for the Filipinos workers as there are other Nationalities that is as good and competent like the Filipino workers.
Regard
Jafri Basron
