Whether jurong, or woodlands can be CBD area not really depends entirely on gomen. Whether companies want to be located there or not. Gomen also talk about expanding commercial area in Marina Bay area. This doesn't sound like encouraging business to relocated to other places. I think the key is financial services need to relocate, because those are the businesses crowding in current CBD. They should implement incentives for business to relocate to jurong or woodlands.

PAP very powderful... with a stroke of a pen, they move so many banks to marina bay area... i think with another stroke they are gonna move psa over to the west and take over the port area for gaming development...

Of course they have bachelor degree lah... Else, how can pursue master? I heard of some of the universities can allow bachelor degree with 1st class honour can skip for master study and straight away get PhD study!... But, I never heard of without degree can study master wor.... smile.gif

Not necessary!... Who tell you that Degree holder cannot work in restaurants? Two example for you:
1. A friend from my colleague work in SG bread shop!... He hold UK degree!...
2. A private uni 1st class honour degree work as associate branch manager in fast food restaurant sg!... That's his 1st job in sg! Now, he managed to changed job and work in much more good company!

U are very good! How many years you're working in sg? Now, u have enoguh saving and can go to further study. SG got quite many institutions with offer overseas universities degree and master programme!...
*
UK engineer masters are some undergrad studies... yeaps, cause PHD is research, master doesnt have to be... well, i guess now u know

not say cannot la, a lot of things u can do, is whether u wanna do...

UK degree from those mills he studies in msia? UK degree doesnt mean much, unless is it from a tier 1 school...

private uni 1st class honours doesnt mean anything really... u wouldnt be surprised if u see aneh making roti prata holding master.. it is the school that counts...

newspaper came out an article bout a girl that grad from NUS working in mcds, or a lady gave up working to sell chicken rice wif her hubby... but u must also look at their major in uni

3 years liao... wif my low salary very hard to save up, i think i need 5 years.. we dont receive tips from customers and sakae dont give bonus cry.gif

Must have vision to progress. This pay should be a short term income while you horn your skill to move up, else gain your skills and exp in MY before coming to SG with a higher starting pay. The key is which side offer your better opportunity to grow.

Fresh Accountant, I think you will work long hours, Eat take away food in office, sleep long hours during weekend etc. So not much time for shopping and dining, should be able to save some money with that salary. I am not in finance, just my observation of my accountant friends.

do i need the access card to pass the gate before that?

as i was told that i need to register the access card from my other friends.

heard you could register for the card at their immigration office at woodland at the departure side. normally the card for day travellers, like those staying in JB. you need to pay for the card.

no need. once you've done your fingerprinting at EPSC than can liao. just scan your passport at the auto gate and use your thumbprint. No need to even show your EP card to anybody.

using passport is actually a slow process for day travelers. he is asking for the express card. tap and go. probably you haven't seen one in action.

U sounds bias to UK degree and private uni?... To be frank to tell you... Private uni also quite difficut to get 1st class honour! Local uni are much more easy to get 1st class honours! As many courses from local uni also got a few dozens of 1st class honours comes out (That's very horrible! Do you think ppl dont suspect their uni to giving 1st class like selling vege in pasar?)!... He is study hotel management and his course is more to case studies!... D UK degree hold international business management cert!....

NUS is vert reputable uni in sg! Those graduated from NUS are easy to get a jon in sg and their employers dont care of what majot they studied! Coz they recognize those NUS graduated are top student and capable!... I heard my fren said sg gals like to marry and become house wife!... Actually, working in sg is very stressful in corporate world! that's why more gals likw to become housewife to do their own/ family biz!...

Actually, Master got structure A (100% Research based), B (Coursework+ research) and C (Totally coursework - Which known is vr useless master in academic field that can't further PhD after graduated!)... Phd also got Strcture A and B which is more similar to master!...

I've clear pictue of banking!... That's why I don't apply for any banking job in sg!.... And, I wrote here about banking is to suggest one of the forumer!

Lastly, I start to write in this forum for sg current economic status and some employment pass issues!...

Dude,

You sure your friends are giving you the correct information or not?
You keep saying your friends tell you XXX, recruitment agencies tell you YYY. And you come in here looking for someone to agree with you. Of course those graduated from NUS will stand a better chance but I disagree with the employers doesn't care what their majors are.

They are so many negativities in your posts about Singapore and its employers, I am not sure why you bother to come here at all?
