The plan appears to be to charge higher fees/taxes if you are PR/EP. If however you take the plunge and get a pink IC, you get to enjoy the benefits of paying the lower fees/taxes that Singaporeans enjoy. We should therefore expect to see a fall in the PR/EP population and a rise in the new citizen population.

If the PAPzis want to attract PRs to become citizens and new citizens then why would they put any new tax burder largely on this group?
