It's basically a question whether your degree (a local one, I presume) is recognised anywhere else outside Malaysia.

Malaysia's educational and professional recognition criteria isn't always... ummm, objective. Take the Malaysian Institute of Accountants for instance. It decrees that all foreign degree holders have to earn an internationally recognised professional qualification before being admitted as a member of MIA, but local accounting graduates (including MARA! which awards degrees based on race rather than results) are admitted directly from university after 3 years of work experience.

may i ask , how to knw if my degree is internationally recognised professional qualification ????

i said my degree is recognized by board of engineer malaysia and malaysia higher education.

then he keep pressing if my degree is some how related to england anot -,-' as his impression that england degree is the best and recognized worldwide. however, from my fren who is graduated from notthingham , his degree(3 years) is not recognized by engineer board, and he had to go for master , which is an extra 1 year. dun wanna piss him out, so didnt told him that....

ok, back to topic. then he ask me if i'm getting EP or S pass ? as EP will only issue to degree holder recognized by "singapore and worldwide" -,-' if the degree is not recognized, we can only get s pass even our salary is more than 2.5k~

dun knw is true or not , but just to share

Hi, I'm new to this particular thread.  I cannot help but respond to your answer because I'm concerned that it might give a wrong impression.

If your answer is in the context of blue-collar/non-graduate/casual work then it's fair to compare with foreign workers in our country.  However, if you get a job as an executive or even as an auditor, you will be treated like other Singaporean workers, always providing you are adequately qualified or experienced or both.

For those interested to work in Singapore, the ideal strategy is to gain an acceptable qualification for your field of work plus some work experience before applying.  If you are not qualified and inexperienced, you'll be pushed around or bullied even if you work in our own country.

One should not blindly jump across the causeway because of stronger currency and/or brighter prospects because life may not be easy in Singapore.  The pace of work is much faster there and hence, the pressure will be heavier.  People under such pressure may not be friendly or patient. On top of that, coming 'home' after a hard day's work to find yourself in a small room in a small HDB flat may not be easy to adapt to.

Always find out as much as you can. Always be realistic in your expectations..

Nope 

is : Dun Be Singaporean
DBS oso means something for those who wanna become Singaporean ~ keep guessing ~

Bro, about the degree thing, if u grad form public U in Malaysia, I can safely say 100% Singapore will recognized it. Did you register yourself with BEM?
By registering with BEM and stating it in your resume will surely give tumbs up as well

This is IES for Singapore :

There is a link to BOE Malaysia, see if your degree was listed on BOM website.
