Encouraging EE's could have the effect of less integration of those in the enclave as they preserve their culture and are unable to be integrated into Singapore's Culture. See video. essentially the video shows a Singaporean negatively reacting to foreigners. This could be evidence that there is little integration in Singapore which could be blamed on the EEs that preserve the culture of foreigners and thus there would be cultural friction.

They may stifle English proficiency and limit opportunities to climb the economic ladder.

It may cause social tension thus I think that EE shouldn't be encouraged

EE should not be encouraged. With membership into these EE's, the immigrants need little adjustment culturally and linguistically. This might hinder the naturalisation into the community they migrated to causing more segregation then otherwise intended.

I believe ethnic enclaves should not be encouraged. By having ethnic enclaves, it forms a breeding ground for groups of foreigners to congregate in certain areas and thereby isolating them from the community. By isolating these groups of foreigners, it goes against the idea of ethnic integration and is encouraging groups of people to stay within a tight-knit community and not engage with locals. Such isolation may result in a lack of cross-cultural understanding and may result in misunderstandings.
