Interest Rate Parity will prevent any potential arbitrage in the long term.

same case with me.
my passport will expired soon and need to renew.
but i choose not to renew it.
call to MOM before and they informed me the pass must change.unless ur spass didn't indicate ur passport number.

That's it, friday 5.30pm.

It is time for a new start, wish you all the best for rabbit year!!

Added on January 28, 2011, 8:32 pmIn 2010 i'm not tax resident so i pay 15% in 2011 for YA2010

but in 2011, i'm a tax resident so i will pay the lower scaled tax rate in 2012 for YA2011.

So do i calculate my YA2010 tax at scale rate and compare itto the tax at 15%. Then Irequest back the difference?
Wen can i request? in 2012 or 2011?

If you're currently getting RM9K, then S$5.8K seems low. In order for the SG position to be of approximately the same job size as your MY position - my rule of thumb is that the S$ salary should be at least 85% of whatever RM salary you're already getting. Of course, if the position is not the same scope or seniority, nor in the same industry or type of company etc, then you can't make that connection.

Hi bro Seantang,

Means they should offered him SGD 7650?

p/s : got interview tomorrow

WTS Bus Ticket, Tuesday, 1/2/2011, 10am, SG to KL, Aeroline, 2 Pax

Special Price.

Not exactly. I'm saying if the SG job has the same kind of job scope, size/impact and responsibilities as his Malaysian job, then yes, they should offer him that or more.

If he's being offered a smaller job, obviously the salary will be lower.
