What it means is that of 236,600 jobs created last year, 92,100 went to locals. This means that a staggering 144,500 jobs went to foreigners last year. This works out to be 61%. Now, I may be a mass communication student who is stereotypically bad at doing math, but 61% is definitely not A THIRD as reported by The Straits Times. Now do you get the picture?
