Is it possible to use a malaysian car in singapore for an extended period of time. Since it would be a waste unless you are thinking of being a PR in singapore for long term basis.

I thought the levy was 20 SGD and that would be each time you entered into singapore from malaysia on weekdays.

Is there a semi-permanent system like i pay a fee where i would be able to use a malaysian vehicle in singapore, and not commute from malaysia into singapore?

Clover/buona vista room for under 400, more like fantasy since i have a fren over there, even utility room around 400. Common room around 500, not including air con of course.

You want cheap accomodation, try woodlands, sembawang or yishun. Toa Payoh or braddell is ok if you want near city centre.

Donno why since i moved to braddell, my m1 mobile bb damn slow, signal bar 4 level but speed around screamyx 512k.

I know foreign labour workers who like to sleep in the living room rather then the common room since its much more airier then a standard room which can be quite stuffy. Bear in mind they dont have air-con so its understandable if you have a choice of sleeping with 3 other fella in a common room or in a spacious living room, which would u choose?

You have 2 be kful when choosing a utility room, some of those rooms got no ventilation or even if it has a window, got no wind so it will be very stuffy, to the point that like sauna.

Best would be to find an air con utility room.

Like this i can complain to the police about my neighbour. Old fella smoke at common corridor plus always go out shirtless. I wonder if the police will layan it or will "turn a blind eye" since its an old uncle.

Why dont u find a job in malaysia or some other country instead of deciding singapore as the be all, end all for your job search?

Same with most ppl here who are working in singapore and their families and frens are in malaysia. So whats the problem?

A few of my frens are working in malaysia and they are doing quite well, even one opened his own business with little to no help from the government plus they dont bar them from achieving what they want.

From what i heard, the "dont get you promoted" thing may happen in certain GLC's and givernment sector, but private sector, if they did that, it would be akin to shooting oneself in the leg.

What do you want 2 do and what qualification do you have?

If none, you can always do metal work/ fabrication. Now got demand for these kind of ppl.

If i were employer, i would be very skeptical of you if your lecturer told you that as a graduate of Multimedia University, you must have some knowledge of "multimedia".

If every worker who come to singapore auto become pr or citizen. Then i bet you every third world country from the philipines to myanmar will rush over to singapore until no more land to house everybody. You can bet on that.

Not true, it depends on industry as well. I know a few guys who have about 4-5 years exp in marine/oil and gas with only a diploma from myanmar no less. And they got a job for bwoffshore and prosafe and their earning more then 5k, and thats just basic, havent even calculate their additional allowance or their OT.

Since most E&E involve in production. Since global demand now low, job prospect for production scale job also scarce.

If u choose your subject coz u just want 2 earn money and the job prospect "would" be good. Then be prepared to to burned since you choose a subject out of financial or job prospect opportunity rather then self interest.

I know many ppl who choose a subject not becoz they have an interest in it, but only focus on how much income they can derive from that particular field. Those who study something where they have a genuine interest in a particular subject tend to me more happier and wont feel that they have wasted their time studying something just for monetary gain.

I read an article where someone was like you, working in a field which she had no interest but the money was good, and used the money as a way to complement her job which didnt really interest her. In the end she made the choice of pursuing her interest with the money she saved and set up a company somewhere in new york.

Dont think thats possible since i got a colleague just got back from south america for holiday last week. But then again i not too worried about h1n1 since its just another class of flu, not like sars which is deadly.

Anybody know of a website dedicated to finding room mates or house mates in singapore? Not the usual landlord/tenant set up.

Tried that website, its more of a tool for rental agents to hawk their rooms, ive used it quite a few times trying to find a room. And nearly all of the time it doesnt go 100% smooth.

An example would be the use of the washing machine, most ppl would say that you have free use of the washing machine or within the limits of being reasonable. But after a week or so, disputes will arise about its use as an example, the landlord will ask you to only wash in certain days due to he/she wanting to recycle the waste water from the RO water machine for use in washing your clothes on the premise that it saves water for the landlord. But the real kicker is that the landlord never mention this when he/she wanted to rent out the room with the facilities.

Most of the time, i find that a large majority of landlords in singapore are very particular about water, especially the use of the washing machine. Thats why im looking for a house where there is no landlord since i hate these kind of stupid stipulations, told to me after agreeing to rent from them. At least they have the courtesy to tell me beforehand.

Room. I usually say there are 2 type of ppl if staying in the same house. Ones a room mate who shares a room wif me. house mate is a person who rents another room but in the same apartment/house.

Im am looking for the latter.

I dont really care for gender since i look at the persons attitude. I am particular about cleanliness.
