This shows that he is able to contribute  to Singapore. Judging from the video, he shows that he is someone who have a traits of a Singaporean as he is able to speak Singlish. While he should not have rejected the offer for citizenship after NS, he has paid the price for the decades he was stateless. Giving him a citizenship, he would be able to have rights that will enable him to set a family and sink his roots further in Singapore. ]]> 2022-01-09 11:31:02 UTC https://padlet.com/boonlaysecondaryschool/35stateless/wish/1982244798 bls_humarts https://padlet.com/boonlaysecondaryschool/35stateless/wish/1982248153 2022-01-09 11:35:59 UTC https://padlet.com/boonlaysecondaryschool/35stateless/wish/1982248153 bls_humarts https://padlet.com/boonlaysecondaryschool/35stateless/wish/1982248438 2022-01-09 11:36:10 UTC https://padlet.com/boonlaysecondaryschool/35stateless/wish/1982248438 bls_humarts https://padlet.com/boonlaysecondaryschool/35stateless/wish/1982251820 2022-01-09 11:42:00 UTC https://padlet.com/boonlaysecondaryschool/35stateless/wish/1982251820 yu_jian_hui_lucas https://padlet.com/boonlaysecondaryschool/35stateless/wish/1982779082 I would offer give Ms Wang citizenship because she has a young child and has no where to go.

Firstly, Ms Wang has a young child and she looks like she would need the citizenship more than Mr Chong as she has to afford healthcare and needs for her child. Moreover, Ms Wang is a single mother who has to pay for her child’s school fees ,that is so expensive, on her own. Therefore, we would offer citizenship to Ms Wang. And mr Chong looks like he wouldn’t have the citizenship for long]]> 2022-01-10 00:41:34 UTC https://padlet.com/boonlaysecondaryschool/35stateless/wish/1982784131 chloe_lee_zi_xuan_1 https://padlet.com/boonlaysecondaryschool/35stateless/wish/1982784429 We would offer Ms Wang citizenship as she is a single mother and have a young child to support so we think it is unfair for her to pay most of the things such as hospital bills, childcare, etc in full price. We also think that the child shouldn’t be treated differently because of his mom’s citizenship status in Singapore ]]> 2022-01-10 00:41:52 UTC https://padlet.com/boonlaysecondaryschool/35stateless/wish/1982784429 https://padlet.com/boonlaysecondaryschool/35stateless/wish/1982784439 Taking the role of the government, we would offer Ms Wang citizenship because she is a single mother with a very young son who is struggling to support him and herself.]]> 2022-01-10 00:41:53 UTC https://padlet.com/boonlaysecondaryschool/35stateless/wish/1982784439 https://padlet.com/boonlaysecondaryschool/35stateless/wish/1982784503 We choose not to give anyone citizenship. This will benefit the Singapore citizens as the government will collect more revenue through higher cost of living and taxes.

Plus, even though her mother is not a citizen, her father is a Singaporean. Judging from the video, she can also speak mandarin which is also a major language in Singapore. This shows that she can blend in with the society in Singapore and have a sense of place and belonging. She also has a child who is stateless and struggles to meet the financial needs for both her and her child. Giving her a citizenship, she would be able to have the rights as a citizen and support for herself and her child to have a brighter future without much struggles.]]> 2022-01-10 00:43:19 UTC https://padlet.com/boonlaysecondaryschool/35stateless/wish/1982785945 https://padlet.com/boonlaysecondaryschool/35stateless/wish/1982786086 I would give the citizenship to Ms Wang because she needs a better place and environment for her son as she wouldn’t want her son’s future to be ruined.
