not easy, considering you 'skipped' NS. Chances are not high.

ok lar..pay quite reasonable. Work 1st then try look around for other job. If you are working office hour then I suggest that you stay in Sg coz the traffic at causeway is terrible during the peak hours ... if you take train then probably better

seriously, my company don't even look at anything other than 1st class honours. 2nd and 3rd class honours don't even qualify for interview, let alone landing a job.

also the hassle of doing work permit

chances are not very high just after 6 months of employment.

for my case, they keep sending me the letters every year asking me to apply for PR after working for just 2 years. Remembered that time i was still on work permit.

mobile broadband www.singtel.com.sg & www.M1.com.sg . and their speed is much more better that the lousy telcos we have in Malaysia

yeah .... salaries keep on increasing

Ours is following the American style, which is 52weeks pay. We are paid every monthly (equals to 48 weeks) + an additional 1 month pay on December to make up for the shortfall of 4 weeks.

it's hard to survive on the salary of SGD$1,200 per month. Lodging already taken up almost 30-50% of that amount

of coz using a Sg car is more convenience.

yup, i'm driving a Sg car.
If you are not Singaporean or PR, then you need a guarantor for the bank loan. You could get the loan in a matter of days
I'm not too sure about used car coz mine i bought new. The process for used car should be easier since you do not have to wait for them to bid COE which could take weeks. Normally ppl prefer to scrap their car after 3 to 5 years since the new car price is low (compared to per capita income) nowadays. So there's less market for used car.

what crime? everywhere also got crime. after so many years staying in jb, traveling in and out I was thinking of moving in to Sg. In jb you could get a room for around rm500 if you stay around town.

anyone getting a flat during this economy slowdown ?

not entirely true. there is a significant drop in COV price for the last 3 months ..but it's picking up again ..

SGD$1500 is more than enough for the owner to pay the house monthly installment

think cheapest is still rent from HDB but i think for pr only. Waiting list is long but no harm waiting

SGD1k for the whole flat is hard to get, unless probably 3 rooms flat . 5 rooms flat rental can easily fetch sgd1.5k

EXXONMOBIL is recruiting. look at Sat Strait Times.
