Thanks for all your information. I have no choice but need to stay in JB because my wife she is working in JB and my babe is there too...for sure cant afford if moving the whole family to SG. Worst is I dont have bike license, if i wanna drive a car from JB to NUS...is it much worst???   Don't miss your family time, they need you to be there. Things will get better once you start working. Try talking to bas kilang/sekolah operator that goes to nearby science park for a special deal (may be part time driver assistance in return for the free ride) or check if you can take the KTM service before it close. With wife and baby, you should really consider the risk of riding a bike. Morning traffic rush near NUS is bad, you need to go early.

QUOTE(spitzupipu @ Mar 7 2011, 03:36 PM) can EP/S pass holder work part time? i mean after regular work, such as night time or weekends? legally no, because your work pass stated clearly that u are permitted to work for the specific company that is stated on the EP/SP. but you can do some part time distributing flyers at MRT station (illegally)... anyway... "you are not guilty until you were caught". its just whether you wanna risk it or not. This post has been edited by Lester1987: Mar 7 2011, 04:06 PM
