QUOTE(tkhoo @ Oct 20 2012, 10:13 PM) Hi, as I know Singapore gov already stop approve work permit for people from Sabah and Sarawak unless you are over 35 years old.....So are you sure you got the job? What could be the reason they prohibit people from Eastern MY to work in SG? having said so, my friend, 24 has been working in SG for 4 years, ACCA qualified has just obtained his PR early of this year.

Anyone here knows a good exchange near Balestier or nearby? Lazy to wake up early on Saturday and travel to Raffles just to exchange $$$ like today. there is another one which operates till 3pm on saturday with comparable rates to the one at Clifford center. http://www.arcademoneychangers.com.sg/ratesbiglogo.asp

QUOTE(trowapeter @ Nov 27 2012, 08:13 PM) Just wanted to ask something. As I was job hunting in SG,I frequently goes back to MY by using SBS 170 opposite of Kranji.What does the ride suspended and ride resumed mean when I tap my ezlink on those bus mean? it means as it is. you must scan the card whenever you embark or alight from a bus or MRT. it simply records that you have signed out so that you wont be penalised S$2 when you sign in again. for Bus 170 is a bit unique since you're only charged once and yet you got to embark and alight from the bus multiple times assuming you take the same bus all the way from kranji to Larkin.

QUOTE(Dendroid_King @ Nov 27 2012, 09:20 PM) My contract nvr states that my working hours will vary according to the needs of the company. However the contract states that my shift from 8.00 am to 6.00 pm is extendable when required to do so. I take it that it means overtime. In practice I always go back sharp at 6 pm and they nvr ask me to OT. If Mackiddo is right about MOM > any contracts, I should have a strong case. Most company as I know will write a standard 8 hours a day from mon to fri. And at most additional half day on Saturday. However if they want to make u work longer than what's is suppose to be, they will just control the working performance and bonus. I have never heard of any accounts working hours as per contract is 9 hours a day from Mon to Sat. Maybe I am being conned. Sigh.... in fact, there're some companies practising 5.5 work-day or full-day on alternate saturdays. it's quite common especially in the commercial line.

QUOTE(trowapeter @ Nov 27 2012, 10:44 PM) I forgot to mention that I only took the bus up to M.Y custom.Will the money still be deducted as $2? If so,is there any other cheaper way to cross Causeway from SG custom? no. you wont be penalised. as you have tapped out. that's what ride suspended for. no cheaper way. alternatively is to take Causeway link bus, the yellow colour one. you will be charged in RM, RM3 which is more or less than same.

QUOTE(dreamworker @ Dec 8 2012, 12:36 AM) I've been job hunting for almost 1.5 months, but still no any response. why so difficult to find a job in sg now  because they control the influx of foreigners. it's especially hard for fresh non-local graduate. even if you're experienced, it's not going to be easy, unless you possess niche skills.

QUOTE(dreamworker @ Dec 8 2012, 12:52 AM) i even bought saturday newspaper and went thru recruitment agency... yea, it's kinda fed up when most of the jobs required "strictly for local and PR"  just mass apply and hope for the best. companies also dont want to go through the hassle of applying pass for foreigners but for job description and requirements that fit you well, you may try too.

QUOTE(athrun300 @ Jan 26 2013, 11:25 AM) Yes. I want it. No doubt about that. Both of the company is in SG. I just concern of the implication to my profile. it will have implication in MOM records when the new employer applies for EP for you. other than that, i dont see any reason why you shouldnt go for the interview.

QUOTE(john_makaay @ Jan 26 2013, 01:27 PM) any1 here manage to get PR approved with least than a year working exp in SG? and start from fresh grad very unlikely nowadays. higher chance only if you're a graduate from Singapore University. the most recent PR approval that i have heard of is my senior few days ago. Degree + ACCA with 4 years experience in KL but only earning at the range of EP Q1. applied after 6-month work in SG. approved 3 months later.

QUOTE(deodorant @ Feb 4 2013, 05:19 PM) the new passports that are ICAO standard or something like that have this logo: but my previous passport without this logo (issued in april 2007, expired april 2012) also can pass through SG autogate leh. i wonder where the autogate is. i have been scanning passport via the access card lane thinking it's already the fastest to clear checkpoint. didnt even know the existance of autogate.
