Hi all, I need some help from you guys.

I get the in principle approval letter in PDF format from my future employer.My future employer staff told me that i just need bring along this documents when enter to Singapore.

Is that really enough?
1)That means i just need bring my passport and this IPA enough already?
2)After that i need to go MOM get my EP? How long i can get the EP? 1 day?

Please advise what others things I need to take note/get or process.

Many Thanks

MOM panel clinic or my future company panel clinic?

Hi guys....
Today is my last working day in Malaysia
Tomorrow i will come 2 SG join you all.......

Just a question, i need bring along the IPA letter when in the SG immigration, the white card i need fill in 30 days is it? and for working?

Now pack all my things, I know that in SG rent a room need EP, however i only have IPA, did anyone use IPA letter rent a room during waiting EP process?

second day in SG.
2molo is first day working....
28th reach at house owner sign an rental agreement and listen the house owner discipline....few rules start with
Do not........blah .....

compare to malaysia.Food
In SG i need wlk 5-10 minutes go 2 food court eat dinner. Mamak stall.
and when i oder roti canai, it did not allow me order 1 roti canai....must order 2 roti canai.

In malaysia i always order 1 roti canai and 1 teh tarik for supper....

Compare to malaysia:Transport
Walk walk and walk....feel tired...however saw Many pretty and sexy lady dress very nice using MRT.....In Malaysia this kind of girls drive 2 work 1....now they same like me take MRT.....hehe

I Miss the Malaysia food in kuchai lama, SS2 Murni and Asia Cafe


And read chinese news paper in SG,similar with HK apple daily style, nothing big news but just gossip and realize that alot SG young lady easily cheated by guys....not handsome 1 and no money also....

Internet:
In SG every house wifi also got password protected.Not like Malaysia i scan the wifi can found many unify or streamyx user did not put the password and can easy use their network.
Even in Mcdonal we need request password from their staff, and i think is auto password genarated everyday.Very secure.


SG government education is good

Coming saturday will go geylang walk walk and eat recommenced foods...porridge
and will eat chili crab....

my flight ticket is around sgd 120.

I would like to ask anyone who is frequesntly travel normally take this opportunity buy&sell items which can declare or offset the air ticket?

sgd 2k is really not enough...
unless u sahre room with others.

My expenses
room rent 700
PUB 50
foods and drinks 500
transport 80
HP/broadband 50++
parents- 400
MISC- 100
expenses is around sgd 2k per month

when i work in malaysia my 1st job (6 / 7 years ago) is rm 1.8 k and i can save 1 k per month....amazing...
while my salary reach 4k++ i only can save max 2k mostly is 1.5-2k

the more you earn...the less you can save....
the less you earn the more you save

Its about privacy....
i don't mind share room with the person that i know such as friends...
but share room with others that i don't know is quite risky for me.....

why you SG first then gop back malaysia and come back SG again?
Marriage with SG people?

just curious why you every 5 years transition change ?

From this stage i think i will not go back Malaysia while BN still manage Malaysia.....
I am PKR supporter..and always vote PKR...

If 1 day PKR win, i definately go back...wawasan 2020 is achievable....
From what i see now...penang gov is doing a wonderful job and keep going the right track...selangor also the same things

FYI...
my young brother get sgd 1250 and he can survive and save money also...he also manage contribute RM 500 per month for parents....

Its about how you do it....

As mentioned above, Different people living in different income brackets see things differently.
