Guys, a fren of mine wanted to let go his whole unit (i think one bedroom, can't remember) rented house in Chinatown. Monthly rental is $1450 only.
For those working in town, its very near.
The downside is its near construction and the area is indeed CHINATOWN.
So let me know if you interested to take over.

the incentive shd be to the company. cos if HR does their job slow, the employees would have to complete their filing late, and the employees are the one kena fine. until now my HR still havent complete the tax submission.

Can't really remember wats the original questions, but i beliv sombody wanted to buy HDB property, but got a Malaysia property.

Hence, i beliv was refering to transfer the property in Malaysia. An in Malaysia, if its more than 5 yrs i beliv no RPGT or very minimal if any. 5% on profit. Further, market value of pretty vague. U appoint the valuer and u tell the valuer dun value so high lor. Using bank's valuer (on the pretext of refinancing ur property) is also another way. Banker dam kiasu / conservative in valuation. So if ur property profit RM100,000 at most u pay 5% = RM5,000 only. WIth that profit ur property should be about RM1m, RM5,000 cannot pay meh.

About transfer to siblings, not sure attract RPGT or not, but provided less than 5 years. But i beliv trasnfer to parent no nid.

On HDB compliance side I dun see any risk. U transfer ur Malaysia property to somebody, so tat u can buy HDB. HDB have a hard time proving whether u are genuinely selling to ur sibling/parent or 'transferring'. Anyway, so what if i was transferring as a gift to them? Most important make sure no property loan. How is Singapore to prove whether u are selling or transfering ur property in Malaysia? Are they going to talk to Malaysia government for a G2G initiative just to catch such things, and its so hard to prove that the transferee is holding the prop as transferor as a nominee?

anyway, gotto take it with a pinch of salt.

On taking paycut or not it depends on a lot of factors. Type of industry, type of work, type of company, type of expereince u have, type of qualification u have, reasons why u wan to move here, growth rate in the furture, opportunity cost. Cant really assume its the same lor.

I gues LYN is one of her way to get money resources.

wow, this sounds complicating. "we" as in u and ur current gf, doesnt mind ur ex-gf staying in ur room??
this sounds like ....party time!!....

Looks like they may have apply wrong pass for u.
SPass may not mean its easier, altho generally, SPass is lower salary than Epass.
It all depends on ur quota.
So applying EP for u, might have higher chance than Spass.
u got clarify with the HR?
Altho this is SG, the HR may not be smarter or more efficient.

I wana do a swimming group. any ladies interested??

Anyway, I have a friend looking for somebody to take over his Starhub internet contract. The contract will end by May 2013.
But he is moving out and renting a room now, with internet provided. If he terminate his contract he will have to pay $200 cancellation fee.
Anyone keen to takeover?
This would be beneficial for those who only want to siugn up for 1 yr, instead of lock down for 2 years.
His package is (if im not mistaken) $39 per month.
PM me if you interested. Don't reply via thread as I may not be reading all.

If the HR nowadays still use manual .

ANyway, a HR personnel (quite a savvy HR personal I would say) once told me, if it takes more than 3 days, meaning something is wrong and MOM is investigating something about u. And better prepare for the worst. Of course, this is online filing scenario.

Anyone in Singapore working in the area of credit analyst / fixed income / credit risk / fixed income? Wanted to seek some opinion on type of qualifications. Can pm me, in case i dun follow up on the thread?

The ranking would be like this:
ATMS; DBS/POSB > UOB > OCBC
Queue; DBS/POSB > UOB > OCBC

So UOB would give you the best balance.

I was recently told that to open a UOB savings:
Nid to deposit $1k
Maintain $500 per month, otherwise there will be charges
SHow ur Epass, passport, Msian NRIC
Proof of address in SIngapore (I'm not sure can use office addres or not. But I think they should insist home address since wat if u staying w a relative and using prepaid phone, then no proof u stay there.

But I rmbr when i open mine, no nid deposit a single cent!! Just show them my HR letter proving that I'm employed..
