I quite like their BKT. As long as you don't directly compare it to KL/Klang one and accept that it's a different 'style,' it's not too bad.

It's OK if you can't get used to the SG type. After all taste is a personal thing mah hehe. For me I consider the SG BKT something like eating pork stomach soup (which is clear and peppery even in Malaysia) ... except that I eat ribs instead of stomach. So it's still OK

But I still can't accept stuff like the char koay teow, wantan mee, bak chor mee, fried hokkien prawn mee ...

sinkie also eat lah, I go sinkie full moon party everyone keep asking me to eat the ter kar

Those of u who say sinkie can't identify malaysians, this only applies if u have been here donkey years n already integrate into their way of speaking etc. I been here coming to 2 years and still taxi drivers instantly know I am Malaysian after I speak 2 sentences to them regardless English or mandarin.

You haven't met some of the real elite people in singapore. Some of them have a level of work life balance that even those 35hr work week Europeans are envious of. Can check with MacKiddo for confirmation on this.

cheaper in malaysia, by quite a significant amount. if you're worried about warranty u can always buy brands like Asus that come with international warranty.

wah really need to no pay leave so early into your SG career ah? ... just talk to your boss and ask for normal annual leave cannot?

it's probably easiest to resign yourself that you'll likely end up using an agent. even if u go look on like propertyguru, 80-90% of the listings there are agent who post one.

working and staying in singapore can't drive foreign car. working in singapore and staying in JB can drive in.

I gave the LTA link liao lor


So if you stay outside SG (i.e. in JB), you are allowed to drive a foreign car in.

Should be able to tekan money in SG atm's using your MY atm card. SG also got CIMB. Otherwise you can always take a bus into JB, but JB itself quite troublesome to get around if you got no wheels. Can PM Lester1987 cos he lives in JB if u need help there.

Not really scary, just that they are ... super enthusiastic. I kena once before and I was simply amazed at how the girls were 99.99% convinced and happy for me that I won a car with the scratch, I had half a mind to follow them to their office just to see their boss and ask him/her what methods were used in training and getting his staff to be so engaged in their job


already told you to PM our daikor's MacKiddo and Lester1987 to come socialize with the rest of us Truly Asia folks but you dowan. Don't worry one lah the bunch of pipu are (generally) quite decent folks.

birth cert no need to translate.

not sure about edu cert though

King Lester1987 is your man

I work in one of the branches of a foreign bank as a Assistant Teller (Clerical level), on Work Permit, my WP say cannot marry Singaporean or PR

But you different leh, you already PR so of course no need to apply any pass


Actually I can sense you are pretty lady but since you are PR then we got no jodoh liao cos MOM already set a restriction for me on my WP that I not allowed to get pregnant or merried with a Singaporean or a Singaporean PR ... can't be helped lah life of a Bank Teller is like that one, MOM just want me to do the lousy unskilled job that locals don't want to do then after that want me to GTFO from Singapore

to be honest singapore public transport is only "efficient" when compared to other 3rd world countries in SEA. If you compare among (most) developed cities with focus on public transport, it freaking sucks. in SG it's already probably running at close to full (or even perhaps exceeding) capacity, so any small disruption like rain where the MRT and bus need to travel slightly slower will frak it up for everyone.

Example, SG got 5mil people and 4 train lines.
Hong Kong got 7mil people and 10 train + 12 lrt lines
Paris got 2.2mil people and 16 metro lines plus 5 train lines
Tokyo got 13mil people and 102 train lines (121 if counting greater tokyo area) - some of these got like 15, 16 cars per train.

I dunno where you get this perception, but the bank I work in is almost a quarter foreigners. Maybe local banks might prefer to hire SC/SPR, but foreign banks certainly have no hang ups about hiring foreigners.

Got but you need to be pretty Elite to qualify. http://www.mom.gov.sg/foreign-manpower/pas...es/default.aspx

I don't think anyone here will be able to help you. As you can see in the previous pages, most of us here are unskilled workers - bank clerk, sakae sushi dishwasher, etc - only on Work Permit (and one of us even work as admin staff illegally with no pass). The other elite people I know about earning 6 digit monthly are all already PR status so they also won't know about PEP.
