Welcome to V12.  

Iphone 5 is coming as well.
worry that going to be a long queue at starhub.

Haha, because i want to recontract, still can order online?hehe
starhub release on starhub news page that 21 sept will roll out iphone 5, what do you think?

Would like to seek for advice regarding to my issue.

I've made a mistake where when I sign the contract, I forgot to clarify on the CPF thingy and basic salary. What I understand is that in some company, they'll pay the CPF in cash to those holding work permit, in my case, an EP holder. Now, the company thought that the salary I demanded are including the CPF which basically means that the basic salary that I expected are reduced.

I'm currently under probation. Is it possible to revise this after my probation period?

please read...he said that the CPF portion is paid to him in cash...not to CPF board.
so basically, what he means is he wanted SGD X but instead of the basic being SGD X, he got SGD Y + % for CPF which = SGD X

just curious, how much is the %? 5, 9 or 16?
so when one converts to PR, how will the calculation be then?

Hi All, finally got my EP approved. 
Just would like to ask do you normally take bus/flight back to hometown, my case is KL.
Think to go back this week, but the flight is expensive + LCCT taxi fare.. 
how about bus? which one to recommend? from woodland to sunway or subang or puchong.. thx in advance ^6

I agree. Just wait a little while. I've been using iOS 6 for a whole day now (updated at 1am this morning). It's really no different from iOS 5. Just a few additional options in the settings screen etc (it's not revolutionary... not even evolutionary. More like iOS 5 just brushed its teeth and combed its hair). And with the iPhone 5 being exactly like the iPhone 4/4S except for a longer screen... it's pretty much the same user experience. You're not going to miss much waiting a while.

It is not free right? SG street good to find route?
i heard that there is some sort of livecam can show you the condition of woodlands checkpoint, any idea?  

Oo...i thought there have the mobile version for it.

btw, thanks anyway

Actually i have the utmost respect for you.
how do you manage to makan on $280 a month?
I can barely do it with $800 a month (i only eat economy rice almost everyday)?
Are you sure it can be done?

If you eat fish, and like to have more than 2 veg + 1 meat - it's quite easy to hit $6-7 per plate of chap fan. Add a kopi / teh peng, you spent $8 a meal already.

Depends on the type fish, whether its a piece or whole, or whether it's fried/sweet-sour or poached.

If you need to drive on the job, the company should provide a tool-of-trade car to you.

wow. Ubi. that's freaking far !

Imagine working at Changi Cargo Freidght. From JB. 

Based on detail here:

I believe EP can convert their Malaysia driving license to SG license right?

Good for you as company provide car for you. For my case, I have to drive my own car (Malaysia registered) and company provide me fix car allowance of $500/ month. So I planned to stay at JB and drive in daily......Salary only $3300, still not sure grab it or not

You DO know that it'll cost you $400/month in daily VEP charges to drive your M'sia car in, right? That's not including petrol, ERP, parking, car price/installment, maintenance, etc. Seems that a decent chunk of that $3300 will also go to the car upkeep.

Hi everyone..just like to know for the eREP procedure...to renew my REP...do we need that letter the current company? The one stating that I'm still working/employed by XXX company.....

I didn't need it when I renewed my REP online. It's was actually just answering some Y/N questions online and then clicking 'renew' on an ICA website using your Singpass. A a day or two later, I logged in, checked the status and it's renewed with another 5 years. Kowtim. You can also print out the new REP if you want. Nothing submitted at all.
