is it that once you become a PR, the existing singapore driving license that you have converted earlier from malaysian license no longer valid and you have to start all over again to take the whole driving exam?

NO

Go tp hq at ubi renew at $25
Remember to bring a photo along

My previous job required rope access in certain areas. The highest i've climbed is around 100feet.

anyone want a roommate or housemate at geylang/aljunied area?

If you willing to spare your friends/partner from siting next to you while you "learn" to drive, pay those instructor for a refresher course.

Else, say a prayer, turn the key and just drive around your familiar area first then slowly learn all the CTE, SLE BKE TPE etc.


If you start from Changi, drive pass CBD to TUAS, cross to Malaysia, go Bukit Indah, Pasir Gudang, Back to JB (edit: I forgot to add Petrol Station) pass CAUSEWAY, woodland, take SLE,BKE, TPE to Punggul then back to Changi. DONE, you can finish your polishing in one day if you wish.

I guess driving it self is not hard, instead you need to learn the road in your area first then use map to explore further.

yup, car is freaking expensive now. to me, u don't have to travel all around the island la. just go to those places that u frequent. it would be good enough.
sooner or later u will know all the places in Singapore.

deposit rate pa will drop to 0.05% effective 14 oct 2011 for POSB, should i keep my money in singapore or else?

I think keep in your pillow better. ease of access to cash. better than u have to queue 5 mins everytime u wana draw money. POSB line dam long.
Assuming you have $10,000 savings, 0.05% is $5 per year. One month queue 4 times, one year queue 48 times, that's 240min/yr. are u willing to queue 4hrs/yr to save $5?

Ya this morning when I was at Sengkang Station, I heard announcement that Circle line service is suspended due to power failure

I put most of my rainy day cash in CIMB. The Starsaver account pays 0.8% on the entire balance, no service fees, no drop below fees... only one condition, you need to deposit $500 each month or the interest rate drops to 0.5% (still higher than anything the big3 can offer). It's got free cheques and the lowest fees (to my knowledge) if you deposit forex cheques as well.

I've done my BTT 3 years ago, however haven't convert yet as my msia license yet to expire and Sg license must renew right? (I've only seen my indonesian friend sg license, no idea whether it applies to msian too, our msia license have to be cancelled before convert right?)

my question is, is it possible to only convert after i get my PR-ship? or must convert before getting PR to avoid taking the full license exam?

by the way, can drive msia car with singapore license in msia?


and 1 more thing~ been trying to look for a job in Singapore (I have both diploma & business degree from reputed Singapore private institution, but no experience) Any advice?
done searching for jobs with all the online portals/company own website to no avail, went to career fairs
any other job search techniques to use?
i got an EPEC valid for 2 years.

I'm interested for position as auditing/finance/customer service/research/consulting/sales(last choice)
currently enrolled in CPA Australia Foundation Level Program
interested in banking & finance/business/airlines/hotel/automobiles/telcos/education sectors & industries

any kind soul who know any position please help me pull some cable~ thank you and appreciate your help~!

nice info.thanks. but one thing, how do u deposit 500 each month without incurring extra GIRO/IBG charges and without any hassle (go to orchard /raffles place CIMB bank to deposit every month)?
