Anyone here in Singapore with family ie. spouse + kids? I'm just wondering what sort of expenses I can expect for family members eg. health insurance, daycare, schooling, car/bus to school etc. I scanned through the pages but everyone is still single

QUOTE(Mackiddo @ Jun 20 2010, 12:04 AM) my wife and kids are here with me Cool Mackiddo. Sounds promising. I'm meeting up with a few recruiters in the next few weeks in Singapore, if the offer is good I'll probably take it.I know a car is not necessary but anyone else brought their car with them? I'd hate to leave/sell my BMW |

QUOTE(seantang @ Jun 20 2010, 12:59 PM) You can't import a used Malaysian car into Singapore.. actually you can, but you have to jump through a lot of rings and you'll end up paying a lot of taxes which you might as well put towards a new car. Sean and all, thanks for the info. I guess I'll decide when I actually get an offer You can drive a Malaysian car into Singapore but it will cost S$20 per day (there are a number of free days etc) but there is also a limit as to how many days the car can brought into Malaysia. The rules get more complicated if you have a long term pass (work permit or employment pass etc) where your car cannot stay in Singapore beyond a certain number of hours each day. Then if you have residency (PR or citizen), you cannot drive a foreign car altogether in Singapore. Let me put it this way... if your current career level allows you to (comfortably) buy a BMW in Malaysia, then the potential new job in Singapore will allow you to do the same thing in Singapore. I wouldn't worry. |
