No. There is no agreement between them yet. But according to news,
Singtel is 'in the final stages of discussions with Apple' to bring the handset to Singapore.

hi there, i wanna ask rent room in singapore near the MRT of green line where is the cheapest?working in tanjong pagar there...and if i found a place online with agent need to pay agent free?
*
If with agent then you need to pay agent fee. Normally they charge half month
rental for 1 year contract.
Green line is so long, I think you better specified the range in the green line.
For cheapest, I guess west side which nearby jurong there.

I was offered a job in Sg but not sure whether to accept or not? The job's a downgrade from my current one in m'sia but the pay is better (no conversion). They offered SGD 4+++ but i duno if that is enough to go about in Sg especially rent is on the high side. Any advise? The Sg com is a american company in Jurong dealing with heavy equipment.

Pretty sure that it is enough for you to survive in SG unless that you are those wearing branded stuff all over your body.
Besides, do you mind to share that how many years experience do you have and
what position is it? SGD4+++ drool.gif

If I take the chemical global MNCs as a reference, basically any managerial job will bring you to $10K a month.

Like I mentioned a couple of posts above, my company's managerial pay scale starts at $13K.
*
mind to share with us which company is you working with? hmm.gif
Is there any vacancy? brows.gif
I believe that not much company will pay so much for manager.

Of course there are. Apply from the career sections in their websites.
Sounds like Exxon to me hahahaha... my uncle's pay in RM is probably GM pay outside.. but he's only an advisor (not even supervisor based on their staff group) lol...

Exxon?? hmm.gif
Did send in resume but there is no reply. sad.gif
Maybe it's my academic result or experience is not good enough.
