Reply to comment by Wowsers_an_idiot23 in [OC] How employable different languages are in Singapore by hannigong4dmi

1)obviously reflective of the number who speak the language, not total national population as the numbers add up to 100% (or near it)

2)this statistic usually means anyone not working or looking for work. Sometimes includes students, usually includes housewives, retired, and those too disabled to work.
