why do you hate them?

What industry are you working in?

Mechanical engineering companies in singapore, mainly the SME's employ a large number of indians, bangla ,china and burmese since their cheap, they dont usually fight back and they are semi-skilled workers.

I prefer to work with filipinos since their easy going and they dont really have inflated ego's like some singaporeans and malaysians do. Plus some of my black ops kaki are pinoys.

Heck, future jobs seekers got affected by those "unskilled workers" attitudes. That ain't fair

Hey. You just recently secured a job or have been working there for a long time?

BTW, how long it took you to find a job there? Where did you stay during your job hunt?

I see. So when you finally went to SG, how long it took you to get a job? My bro worked in SG before and he also went there to find a job. I'm worry if I go there next year but can't find a job.
Thanks for the tips but what I should write about the family history in my resume? Do you think Malaysian Chinese has better opportunity to get a job in SG?

I think 2 months sound like fine as long as finally secured a job. Come to think of it, maybe if we send resume from sarawak, the recruiters might assume it will waste their time because need to wait us to go there for interview. So they prefer those who stay in SG.

Looking at the MRT master plan....

Sometimes I think, if SG size is doubled, from 700km2 to 1,400km2, SG will be a 2nd Switzerland, or surpass Switzerland and perhaps GDP may worth more than Switzerland.

Unfortunately, SG has not enough land to develop, no land for exploitation, somehow or rather, SG will eventually lose its competitiveness.

No matter how SG utilise its space to transform wonders or even build the world largest underground office/theme-park/research centre/casino/MRT underground over another MRT underground/ u named it... all its developments will still be limited to its 700km2. Kesian...

I really hope Indonesia can sell a few inhabited islands to the SG government so that SG can reclaim more land for development to stay competitiveness.... but too bad, this not gonna happen I think...

HK at least still got dozens of mountains that can be used to reclaim land in the future without even depend on China to sell land to them, compare to SG which is a flat-flat island, a single Bukit Timah cant help much tho....

SG is like foreveralone country being sandwiched/squeezed between 2 Muslim countries and I wonder why so many Malaysian Chinese out there still like to bash SG especially in /K/ despite they themselves living in a Muslim country got bullied/sidelined by our current gomen.

You?

Ahh ok.. She's coming on the 22nd Nov but i haven't asked when is she starting work lol.

Thanks guys! So helpful of you all.. Gonna get more details! I guess Pasir Ris and Tampines is ok just a few stops away.

hi,

would like to know from those who travel from KL to Singapore frequently.

Am going down to Singapore for interview soon, but I'm travelling via bus that arrives at Singapore around 5am in the morning while my interview is at 10am.

Is there any place I can rest once I reach Singapore?

thanks in advance.

Great site, really helps. Should be up to date.
Thanks a bunch.
based on what I see on the map, yes it is far. Don't think I'll be going there. Maybe just find 24hrs Starbucks/McD.
Is free public WiFi available in most area of Singapore? I think I would really need to find my way via Internet.

I'm using StanChart Super Salary, no minimum deposit for account opening, no fall below fee, only catch is every month your salary much credit at least 1.5k to the account, its debit card give 1% rebate for all Mastercard spending... its the one and only bank account I have in SG.

stanchart ATM is very few right? for 1% rebate for all mastercard spending, can it be used for paying my CIMA study?
