The best is your office provide a room for you to stay in the office so that when you wake up, you can just walk to your work station. tongue.gif

to be frank, Seletar airport is not far from Causeway. My office is in AMK industrial area. from causeway to my office, its only 13 mins riding. if seletar, i think 20 mins is more than enough.
If u stay in JB near town, u can leave home around 8am if u start work at 9am. definitely can make it and if u look at it, its better than staying in SG because to get to Seletar airport by public transport, it take almost the same time. (assuming u stay near Yishun or Sembawang area)

For account opening, most POSB/DBS requires the card, or at least an appointment.
However, there are some that allows just with IPA, can't remember which one.

It's an immigration check for communicable or contagious diseases since you'll be staying long term in Sg. It's not an assessment of your health status like the normal pre-employment health check for group insurance purposes.

The chest Xray test is to detect Pulmonary tuberculosis (TB). I did not know that they will reject your application if you are a smoker.

No. As long as whatever you have is not communicable or contagious, the govt doesn't care. However... your employer might though.
