But your clients are mainly singaporeans right.

If you have to handle international, then thats a diff story.

Btw, i dont like to handle certain clients from malaysia or china since they usually have the china man mentality and will ask me to cut corners. I prefer either japanese or koreans. By the book, and then some.

Hongkie is ok for me, worst is Singapore or Malaysian Indians. They are dam irritating. Not to be racist or what, but 9/10 indian, they will demand this demand that, paid $20 act like they paid $1000 like that. Dam freaking brainless.

if u are looking for iPad, then better wait, coz Apple products normally have a 1 year cycle and iPad is near to the end of the cycle already. I highly doubt it will be a smaller version since Apple CEO bash Samsung for creating a 7 inch tablet and says that it is too small for reading last time. if u wanna buy, then let me know ba, but as for iPad, even after discount, it won't be cheaper as well since Malaysia is selling iPad at a cheaper price, Better take a bus cross the causeway and buy it there. a lot cheaper.

Thanks a lot, GloryKnight!

Phone banking officer? I'm sorry & please correct me if I were wrong. Is phone banking officer similar to customer service operator?

Although I'm quite concern about the pay as I need to repay my study loan + support the family, but I'm also looking into getting a job that is challenging and could equip me with new knowledge and skills that is useful for me.

If phone banking officer is like customer service operator for the banking, I think I would rather comprise with lower pay but more challenging and tough job.

Please advise notworthy.gif

Anyway sorry if my perception (phone banking officer=customer service operator) is wrong, I would appreciate if you could explain more about the job scope or feel free to provide me the links/sites that could let me learn more about it yeah.

Thank you very much smile.gif

Q:    Can I withdraw my CPF if I'm a Malaysian residing in West Malaysia? If so, what do I need to do?

  A: 
You may withdraw your CPF in full if you satisfy all the following conditions:

You are a Malaysian citizen and have left Singapore permanently to reside in West Malaysia;

You do not hold a valid Singapore Work Permit/Employment Pass or have renounced your Singapore Permanent Residence; and

You are:

a) 55 years old or above, or

b) below 55 years old but above 50 and have not worked in Singapore in the two years before your application, or

c) physically or mentally incapacitated from ever continuing in any employment or found to be of unsound mind.

You may apply for withdrawal online under my cpf Online Services - My Requests if you have a SingPass. Alternatively, you can also complete the application form CPF-MC and mail it to us.

To support your application, please mail us photocopies of the relevant supporting documents (as stated on the application form) which must be certified by a Notary Public or an official from the Singapore High Commission.

For room rental in SG, normally we need to pay for 1 month deposit right? So we will need to pay 2x for first month rental?
Also what is the available payment method for room rental? Do they accept credit card?

Wishing everyone here Happy Chinese New Year! smile.gif

nowadays if you get the letter from JPJ they will 'blacklist' you in the system, unless you decide last minute not to convert and return back the letter. But no worries coz you can use Sg license to drive a Malaysia register car. Lot of us are doing that. Best part is, the driving license is sgd$50 for life (PR & Singaporean only), the rest is sgd$50 for 5 years iirc.

but i just renew my license 2 weeks back... hmm.gif

It only costs $2 for a big packet of curry rice. That should allow you to survive for a day or two. $60 will buy a packet a day, more than enough to survive. And Singapore's weather is great, mild enough to survive sleeping in HDB void decks at night. With food and a place to sleep, that's all you need to survive.

Add another 250 to upgrade it with proper shelter and 2-3 meal a day...
P/s: transport not included, just walk to office lo...

I tried that before for few months...save bout 80% of my salary...after a while, I tend to live more comfy and luxury

80%?? Now that's what I call dedication. Wanna share a few tips with us?

Every morning bread with peanut butter...make sure is smooth typenot chunky so u can spread a super thin layer on da bread...
Bread buy big size can last u for 3 - 4 days
Lunch go cafeteria...Bodek those Malay girl a bit they give u extra big packet for same price(Malay rice full of lemak give u extra energy)
Dinner eat 2 dollar chicken rice...I think u can still find chicken rice this price at most place...not to forget the free msg cabbage soup...
And for ur room...try sharing with lots of ppl...the more u share the lower the rental
After 3 years here...I still find it amazing how I can survive last time...
Additional tip for fast food lover
Just buy 3 double cheeseburger or mcchicken...Each at 2 dollar
More filling then going for mcvalue tongue.gif

oh ya, when u wanna recontract phone line or subscribe to anything, they will ask for ur passport also. EP alone is not good enough. like if u go RWS or MBS, even with the EP u can enter casino, but if u wanna apply for their member card, you still need to show the your passport.
