Join Malaysia polis then, as we always said Malaysia Polis not enuff cainis. You get more overall pay (basic + allowance + kopi) compare to Singapore. Rank is not matter as 5 bowl of abalone rice is easy to get and if can get higher rank, your rice bowl can be made of 24k gold... laugh.gif

Wah, that's dirt cheap...

In Malaysia, RM38 cant even grant you a nokia 3210 brick phone.
In Malaysia, RM88 can only enough for you to sign-up 1mbps Slowymx line.
In Singapore, S$88 can sign-up for 100mbps fibre-optics.

It is easy....if the autopass is not readable, just take out the passport and jump over.... tongue.gif

Or alternatively, you need to send your new and old passport to the ICA officer at 5th floor counter 31. hmm.gif which way better?

Just curious. I am looking for a position in Singapore. My expected salary is SGD4500. But my friends told me that most of her friends request between SGD 3 - 4k. I am in the IT line and I am a J2EE developer. Do you think I am asking for too much?
*
No, you should ask 8000. If not, stay in Malaysia better.......too many people come here, later room rental is going to increase.....it will affecting us here... tongue.gif

Getting lots of calls including from those indian recruitment centers offering me SGD 3000. A lot of the calls I am getting are actually offering me interviews for jobs based in KL. I really do not know how low I can scale down to. But so far I am asking this question because my friend in SingTel is getting SGD4k and I am asking her to find a job for me.  If my friend did not inform me that she was earning SGD 4k I would have no doubt that I am worth between SGD 4.3 and SGD 4.5. But the fact that she told me that, I have to really reconsider. My headhunter friend was telling me about a job in NCS and they are willing to pay SGD4.5 but my application was KIVed. Another thing that really caused me to ponder was that I have another friend in IBM who is a Singaporean doing support there and he was also earning around SGD4.5K I think he is a NUS graduate in engineering so he should be earning more. I really dunno the true market in Sg. Are they actually paying much less. I mean a lot of people are saying that when u get into Sg, it should be between 0.8 to 1:1 but now i am actually seeing a lot of people actually not earning in that scale. I mean a lot of people who i would think should be earning more then 6-8k by now if salaries are really 1:1 are not really getting that amount.


Added on February 9, 2012, 5:05 pm

No I dun.
*
Yeah....many people say 1:1 or at least 0.8.....they can say that many years back where the economy is good or picking up....right now, it is more tough....you see yourself as you got friends.

I didnt get 1:1 when i came here but not bad also lar.....

You need to keep trying. But why you want to come sgp? hmm.gif

Very simple. I do not trust Malaysian economy. I think it is very likely to fall. I think Singapore is a developed country. Thus there are more opportunities. I want to improve myself.

Haha....jobs in singapore comes easy...go also easy....

Malaysia economy still ok lar...only the safety a bit concern. sweat.gif

If you have no confidence in yourself. Then ya ok. I know that there are a lot of bad points in Sg also. In Sg life is much more boring. It's about work. U dun have a car. Food is not as good. But I dun think that we stay here to do all these things. I feel that to progress we have to sacrifice some things dun u agree?

Yup boring life....later where to go leh??? Badminton game? Or loiter in shopping mall? Or staright go home watch tv??? sigh.... shakehead.gif

ur life is boring if u make it so.

haha, That is not a really fair comparison  doh.gif

Why not fair? In Mareshia, drink driving is not a big deal, only not drunk driving. If road block and you cannot pass the test result, the most is you pay kopi, rarely get a saman until you suspend your license.

But in singapore, i hearsay so many comments about drink driving that the penalty is so serious that you may end up in jail and license suspended. I guess, no need to reach to the seriuosness of going to jail, just license suspended is terrible enough. Without a license, what to do with the car? Park it at car park lot to rot but keep paying? I am not that rich... laugh.gif
