With more Chinese children coming to study in Singapore, a unique community of women known as “pei du ma ma”, which, loosely translated means “study mamas” has emerged here. They are there to keep their children company. Singaporeans have responded ___1___ their presence with mixed reactions. What is more important is what their experiences say about the education industry here. Singapore no doubt presents unique advantages as a choice for Chinese students who are ___2___ to study overseas. It is a Garden City which has an efficient judicial system and an orderly society. It has a bilingual policy and Chinese are the majority. Life there is easy to get ___3___ to and, what’s more, their mothers are allowed to come here to be with them. Most Chinese students who wish to come to Singapore ___4___ to recruitment agencies in China to make the arrangements. For sure, the agencies will inevitably make all kinds of promises to attract the students’ attention. They claim they would find the right school for the kids and that it would be ___5___ too for the mothers to find jobs here. Not only would they earn enough to pay for school fees of their children, but they would probably also be able to ___6___ their own living expenses. Once they arrive in Singapore, the “study mamas, quickly find out that life is not a bed of roses. When the agencies fail to keep the ___7___ they have to face the reality. For most of the time, they end up cooking for the schools themselves, not to mention having to pay additional fees. In addition, it is difficult for them to find jobs due to the government’s strict work permit policy. They soon run out of money and find themselves in a dilemma—they have neither the means to return to China ___8___ the funds to continue living here. As a result, some “study mamas” are driven by circumstances to become masseuses. People began to look down ___9___ the entire “study mamas” community, making life worse for these women. Personally, I think the root cause ___10___ in the agencies which provide misleading information.
