I agree.  Use all three ways + friends.  Nevertheless, coming to search job in Singapore without one would be costly.  Unless you are in an industry that is in great demand, it will take some time.

Already try (a) and (b), but still no news. tat's why was considering will it be faster if use ©

Like Obama said, yes you can. All MBA admissions are on a case by case basis. It's a combination of academic history, work experience, money and timing... whatever the business school wants to get at that moment.

Where were you employed previously, and in what position?

JobsDB is ok. Jobstreet is almost a waste of time. Try http://www.efinancialcareers.sg/. It has more banking related work but still a good resource.

Do you have a Linkedin profile? Quite a lot of Sg recruiters lurk there.
*
ok, will try to look there.
may I know what is Linkedin profile?
my friend advise me to apply in Big 4 first, as there is a lot of companies that are not willing to hire Msian. Therefore chances are higher in Big 4.

Big4 turnover is very high, so the firms are forced to constantly hire. They can't be too choosy about residence status.

thanks a lot..
do u think chances will be higher if I try big 4?
have been applying for 2 months and no news totally, wonder is it I did not meet their expectations or I am a Malaysian or the salary requested is too high.
notice that most jobs are posted by head hunter.
