it does, in terms of financing, the 2nd most important element of trading... those are trading companies, not upstream players, should not be affected so much... noble 'tried' to go upstream and put on assets, got burned bad... olam played with creative financing and bet on long term investments, kena muddy waters...

Yes I know what to do. Thanks for the heads up anyways. 



Ah, I follow SG & Thai business news since my current portfolio covers Sg and Southern Thailand. Look, I'm not saying I'm better than my Sg counterparts. All I'm saying is that I have readily transferable skills.

Robert, I have gone thru 1 down-cycle and definitely not a 1st year analyst. But I appreciate your POV nonetheless. 



Like I said, it was a rant. Give an old man a break will ya? 

Yeah, read that. Thanks!



Oh wow, a back-handed attack cum "look at me I'm soooo goood that people come offer me work" from a stranger. Did I do anything to offend you Mr Tigerr? All I can say is, good for you for getting a job in Sg.

Likewise, I have also decided (long ago) not to work with hunters/recruiters who have no clear understanding of the roles they represent and no respect for the candidates. There are many hunters and recruiters and just as many candidates. It's a free market. The thing is, I still have a job if the recruiter suck at selling me the role. But I wonder, if the recruiter can keep his if he consistently mis-markets the role and runs down his candidates? Bearing in mind that most roles have multiple recruiters chasing after it on behalf of the client.

Btw, I'm very sure that did I mention that my posting was a rant. Go look up the definition of "rant". (google helps)

I've dined with local CEOs not Sg ones. And bang tables with the same CEOs when they default. Hence what RobertChoo mentioned earlier hit home and I acknowledge him for that.

A banker's role is to provide financing, that's why CEOs love us. Not because we are any good at managing their business. They just love the capital we lend them. I have no illusions about that. Also, none I think, can offer a banker a job in Sg where they don't operate in. You sir, clearly have no idea what you are talking about and you want to lecture me about reality? Really?


Well, to be frank. I am also in financing line. We did what you mentioned. We provided funds to the listed companies in hundreds of millions n not only for Malaysian companies. But I hardly see any bang tables, kick chairs when our clients defaulted us. Most of the companies are having a habits of defaults n that's why they love us but we also very selective in giving out the funds n lines.

So, just to tell u, there are many financing companies in Singapore n if really knows those CEOs well, it is not hard to find out what other financing companies they are dealing with through their contact, you can easily find some, whether u 'll be proactively go approach those companies yourself or ask the CEOs to introduce. With a good back ground n experience, it is not hard to land a job.

Guys, is it possible to stay in a small room with aircond and wifi for S$600?

So how long does it take to travel from your place to tanjong pagar for example?

If he know your face you in trouble later.

it's sales and dont have commission... sad case haiz.. Fresh graduate price become so low..

rental will make the bundle ...

I don't know where you are getting to in guiding young couples to start a family in Singapore. Throwing in an X6 with a S$1.6Mil condo example; is analogous to killing the self-esteem of a guy struggling to decide a S$1.7k flat monthly pay.

85 to 90% of locals stay in Public Housing in Singapore and only the 60th decile and above owns a car. For all the intents and purposes of your post, it just suggests that you will either struggle to start a family young, or you just die trying. Extrapolating your "guide" attest to this.

We dunno her parents is rich, n she's msian.. Maybe she's one of those hardworkers dat did very well in school..  Top 5% of any singkie gomen school gets $8000 salary.. Maybe her hubbby too.. So $16k fresh grad lor.. Possible

Is it hard to get a fresh grad job in SG for Malaysians?

Where you stay is not strictly the criteria. It's what happens to your bosses' perception of your performance (rightly or wrongly) due to where you stay.

For example, if you happen to work in an environment where management perception of high performance = more time spent in office, staying in JB might be detrimental to your promotion prospects. However if you are able to be... say, first to arrive and last to leave - despite staying in JB, then the fact that you stay in JB won't matter. But if you arrive no earlier than anybody else and routinely leave on the dot to avoid the jam at CIQ or something... then you have to expect that you won't be as promotable as someone who can stay longer in office.
