2200 means S-Pass permit, might be more troublesome than those holding E-Pass.

what you mean by 'troublesome'? mind to elaborate?
Btw, the MOM self-assessment result showing I am capable to get both E-pass ans S-pass, how reliable is that test?

You are gonna be working in Sg soon too?


Why is S Pass more troublesome than E Pass?

Hello peeps,

I have intentions to rent a 2+1 HDB. I'm looking for someone to take the common room while I'll be staying in the master with my gf. If anyone of you interested with the above arrangement please PM me as we can hunt for a place together.

The advantages of renting the whole place:
-freedom
-able to cook
-possibility cheaper rent

mind to elaborate more?? i dun find it troublesome holding an S-Pass. its just that i can't apply dependent pass for my family members. who cares anyway, i believe that most of us are in our 20s and we come down to SG alone. so S-Pass or E-Pass makes no different.

I think S Pass got somesort quota within a company so they have to play balancing act, whilst E Pass no such limit. Correct me if wrong.

Anybody know when the ipad and iphone 4G or whatever name its gonna be called be coming out in singapore?

rumours says that iPad will be available in July. iPhone 4G no news. but most probably no long after the iPhone OS4 launch.

Can NCS join?

IIRC, for S-pass:

1. Longer period before can apply PR (3-5 years?)
2. <SGD2500 = cannot apply dependant pass (no a big deal for most of us)
3. Quota and foreign worker levy (now $50, will increase later this year) -> your boss pay, but usually comes from your salary

I, for one, welcome our Android Overlords.

Haha, i'm actually more for andriod based phones myself but i'm also up for the iphone 4 depending on what hardware specs and OS 4.

Im waiting for the iphone 4 to come out then decide whether to get the iphone 4 or the HTC desire.

If it was a year ago I would say definitely go for iPhone OS. The variety of apps and the smoothness of the phone is top notch.

Now with Android fast catching up, things are less clear. The Snapdragon processors brings the platform up to par with iPhone's speed, although overall, the UI on Apple still feels smoother, less lag, than Android (I guess thats the price you pay for open source which is supposed to run on a wide range of hardware configurations, vs Apple's locked down ecosystem where everything is tweaked to perfection).

Personally I would wait another year to see if Android apps can catch up to the quality of the iPhone. As is stands, Market is a complete crapshot so the App Store is still more advantageous for developers. But more and more 'popular' apps have found their way to Market.

Rumors are the A4 will be the brains of iPhone 4..if true, that's one juicy and power-frugal chip! Specs wise, it will probably beat the Desire. After all in the world of consumer electronics, the latest usually ends up being the greatest for the duration that it remains the latest.

Went to Apple for interview this morning.. And they will get back to me whether I got it or not. The interview took almost an hour.. I'm so nervous waiting for the answer now.. Sigh

wish you good luck. good benefit, 1 thing not good is too many filipino. sometimes makes me feel i am very cheap working with so many of them. almost more than 80% are filipino. mayb i am racist?

buaya king!!!

Haha if he ran an online search for her facebook, friendster, contact, etc etc already then that baru kira buaya king.

Serious so many filipino? But I guess if I really work in Apple, my team would be all Chinese as we will need to speak mandarin & Cantonese to handle hk or Taiwan online store.. Really wish they would gimme a chance to be part of the team..

Btw, u ask like tat, how do u want me to answer u? But I can intro my leng lui fren to u though, she confirmed get the job alrdy..
