2 room apartment about $2.1k - $2.4k. There are some outliers of course, like a damn lucky colleague of mine got her unit for $1.9k

Disappointed. Outraged by the cheating. So blatant, they have no concern whatsoever if everybody knows they are cheating.

And now they blame the Chinese. A Chinese Tsunami pulak. More than before, they will turn this into a BN defender of Malays, PR pandering to Chinese who are against the Malays. Najib knows UMNO/MCA will not be able to get Chinese support ever again, no matter what. So, he's going to chart a course for Malaysia 'in spite' of the Chinese. With the civil service, army, police, GLCs and leadership of all regulated industries and professions already 100% Malay, it's merely going to require aggressive fine tuning of the current policies.

Just you watch... things will get a lot worse for the Chinese back home.

That's the worst possible outcome of this election. And here I was hoping to go back home after a few years sad.gif

Score was 133-89, so Opposition would need to overturn results for twenty two seats to tie with BN. Sorry to douse your enthusiasm, but let's get realistic - the margin of BN's win is comfortable enough to withstand any limited legal challenges or appeals. Time to take solace in the gains that PR has made and look forward to 2017/2018.

What they need, is for some of the Sabah/Sarawak parties to turn the tables and join PR. LOL

Those of u working in Singapore. Are you guys rich yet? Do you feel rich?

I feel rich only when I go back Malaysia lol.

Spending here and living here, when I compare myself relative to the people around me in Singapore, and what I use against what they use etc etc.
Nope. Don't feel rich at all. Probably because 1/6 Singaporean households are millionaires.

Anyone else (PRs) receive a letter from the National Population and Talent Division (NPTD) asking you to complete a survey?

The last couple of questions were ominous...

- Will you consider applying for Singapore Citizenship? (Y/N)
- Which factors will you take into consideration? (tick all that apply)

I wonder what will happen if you tick no? And what happens if you tick yes and they send you a citizenship application which they expect you to submit?

Anyway... perhaps not worth revealing my hand just for the NTUC vouchers.

Haha all of my friends did! XD

I have received invitations to apply for citizenship a couple of times before. But that was before. Now you hear all this talk about only wanting the right types of PRs to remain... ie. those that want to make SG their permanent home someday. I haven't heard of ReEntry Permit renewals being rejected but have seen a few shortened below the usual 5 years (subject to passport expiry).

So right now, perhaps the best approach is lie low, ignore the survey and just stay under the radar.

Eh. We got the survey request as EP holders leh... wasn't PR or anything..
