I can accept what Source E about the policy of using foreign talents. This is because the source is reliable in what it says about the policy of using foreign talent. The source says that “the government’s policy of bringing in foreign talent as appropriate if Singapore is to remain competitive”. This means that the foreign talent policy is important in helping Singapore’s economy. This is true as it is supported by Source D, which states that Singapore “do not have enough people with the right skills and experience for our expanding economy” and thus, there is a need to “draw in foreign talent”. This means that the foreign talent policy is important in helping Singapore’s economy.

Not neutral! not reliable! Cannot

accept!

I cannot accept what Source E says about the policy talent as it is not reliable in what it says about the policy. In Source E, the Chairman of the Feedback Group on Foreign Talent is trying to convince Singaporeans that foreign talents are crucial to Singapore’s economy. This is because the source states that the government’s policy of bringing in foreign talent as appropriate if Singapore is to remain competitive”. This means that the foreign talent policy is important in helping Singapore’s economy. This source was an interview published in 2001, during an economic downturn. Thus, the Chairman of the Feedback Group is trying to garner the support of Singaporeans to continue to support the foreign talent scheme and not blame foreign talents if they lose their jobs in the downturn. Therefore, this source is not reliable as the Chairman of the Feedback Group on Foreign Talent is bias for the foreign talent policy to achieve his purpose. Also, as this group is set up by the Singapore government, it is likely to be pro-government. The Chairman was also a former British subject, which means he benefitted from the foreign talent scheme to come to Singapore. As such, he would be bias for government policies, especially the foreign talent policy. As such, I cannot accept what Source E says about the policy of using foreign talent.
