Talking about food I actually like the peppery BKT! It's more appetizing, but my kids can't eat it.

Other food court type SG food that I like -
The Curry soup based YTF
Chap Fan (considered cheap n good)

Food that I cannot accept -
CKT with black sweet sauce
Fish mee hoon with MILK!

I have one question regarding singtel business fixed line call cost.

link as below:
http://info.singtel.com/business/products-...-line#-overview

so my question is, an office fixed line called another office fixed line, the charges is 0.86 cent per 30s,
then one minute is SGD 1.72 ? is my calculation correct? fixed line so expensive?

but my friend told me that for fixed line, the call is free, is he talking about home line?

Yup. Veli nice, me gusta

1.72 cents not 1.72 SGD leh hp 16-20 cents

You friend may be talking about the mio plan, call to local line free. Don't know got business plan or not.

1.basically once the Pass approved, go sg as tourist, just simply write on white card u gota stay 2weeks, hardly imigration ask such details.

2.then if the Pass require u to do health check (ie xray n hiv), print out the health check paper from MOM- which is given by company who apply the pass for u. (if no health check required, go direct to step 5 below)

3.go to any clinic. Just show the MOM paper (the title on the paper is: Ministry of Manpower, Medical Examination Form), and ask them how much the health check cost. Compare it with few clinic-mostly is almost d same la . it shouldnt cost more than 50$. In Healthway Medical clinic (its a big chain in sg can find in many township) it cost SGD 44.90
No need fasting, just go in the morning. (for xray n HIV)
healthcheck result can be obtained the 3rd day in the morning.
NOTE: ask ur company if can claim. retain the receipt from clinic and claim to ur company account ppl!

4.Once get the result, tell ur company immediately. They will update the result tru online to MOM. ( if ur company using MOM online registration all this while)
By the time MOM granted the Pass (which is in my case was on that day itself!), actually u can start work immediately. ur pass granted date will be base on this date. u officially in!

5.Go get the Pass card physically (no need immediately, u can do this within few days-week, read instruction on MOM paper).
bring along whatever document needed. ur company should know this matter. usually its ur Passport, passphoto, medical result, and the MOM paper ur company printed out.
They will mention when u can come back to collect the card. it also within few days only.
NOTE: if possible do bring ur own pass photo with white background. They hv shop offer passphoto there, but it cost u like $6 just for 4 passphoto without softcopy.

6.Collect the card, bring it everywhere u go. if go back msia oso must bring this card along with ur passport. From this time onwards, u wont get stamp in ur pasport, they will just scan ur card.
if want to be able to use the fast line in Sg immigration, u can register ur Pass card in Lavender. (i dont use this option, coz most of the time the normal imigraton line oso never hv long Q)


CMIIW ya, TS hopefully can stick this on pg 1, if nd sm edit n corection oso can

Ouch, my bad. maybe my understanding very bad, that why confused me. so one minute call only cost <2 cents ?
because i saw hp cost alot more so i didn't think of fixed line can be so so much cheaper, hence confused.

You say 0.86 cent per 30s then 1 minute is 1.72 cent lo. Why you apply business line leh?

Hi.. i am currently working in sg for three months.. i have received another job interview invitation which the job that i felt more suitable and interest... but i dun know i should go for it or not... if i resign in such short period will it be harder for me to apply work pass next time? As i am holding e pass now..
Hope to get opinion here...
Thanks....

Talking about food, i had pizza hut last week. Totally blown away. The menu choices and the food really delicious. Totally different from Malaysia, more expensive but worth it. If you have kids, they even have kid's menu

If there is one thing i love, it will be Changi's Kopitiam teh C ice. Damn.... i willing to take that bus just to go there for it. So good! Make sure is the short untie that make it.

They told me Singapore is famous for steamboat, i find it simple and not so filling like in Malaysia. Maybe just me.

MOS burger is recommended but there is a lot of restaurants in Malls i find the taste totally horrible. In a hunt for a good laksa, so far i have fail my taste buds.

Thanks for sharing, anyway Accounting sector is become so competitive in SG. I guess in future you may need a PHD as to be outstanding. I think in Malaysia, is still the most important how much you can deliver & contribute then the qualification you achieve.

I heard in SG, Charter Accountant at most you only get SGD4-4.5k (Please correct me if I'm wrong). Malaysia you will get RM5-7k, if compare dollar to dollar which is much lower.

I would said, SG is a best place to earn money, but not a good place to live for long term. But it all depends on individual and what you want.

Which type of laksa? Penang, normal yellow noddle or the local specialty Katong Laksa.

I like the Katong Laksa as the portion is not too big as a snack. You only use spoon to eat it.

Depends on what you do and where you do it.

Here's some MNC salary data I posted a while back... pretty accurate for direct employees of global MNCs that are maybe... US$20-30bn or larger.

//forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=2506532&view=findpost&p=57780087

The 30 qualified accountants I mentioned in my company's finance service center, their pay ranges from Exec to Snr Mgr/Director.

You must have underheard...

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

Chartered Accountant earn a lot more than that. Among the top tier for professionals.

SG is a good place to live for the rich. Safety and healthcare.

it taste much better in sg though ..XD

gimme a couple of days, try to add you on FB. supposed to be Lester1987 in charge of FB and I take care of WhatsApp group chat. anyway I'll try to find out how to add.

they still eat ter kar but the non-vinegar version. think only canto people in Sg only eat the vinegar version.

Mind to share what is the salary range for Chartered Accountant?

If you were rich, there is plenty of place great to live. Eg. India & other 3rd world countries, you be treat like a King, live in mansion with dozens of slaves.

anyone been to Pulau Ubin? thinking of going for a day visit on either Sunday or Monday. Just cycle around enjoy the greenery and settle for some seafood lunch.
