Not a good position to advice you on salary range.

Just can tell my my salary is a bit higher than that amount but i only have ITIL and master degree holder with 2 years experience.

I believe it was because I do not have the degree which cause they offer me such an amount. Anyway I believe is a good move for me since this is my 1st job at SG.

Yeah, 4k for first job in sg is consider good pay if you put aside other factor.

Wish you good luck in Singapore.

Around SGD14K. I don't want change in Malaysia as the gap is quite big. Also, withdraw in Malaysia for my SG bank account, the rate even worst.

i have tried wire transfer, bank check, western union, paypal when i tried to use my foreign account's savings. what i found was that i lost tonnes when the local bank converted the $$ with their own rate instead of the spot rate.
I now withdraw money at ATM. This way, i get good rate, and i still have more after taking into account all the transaction fees my foreign bank charges.
I too think you can apply for a travel credit card that waives international transaction fees with you bank in Singapore. A credit card gives you the BEST conversion rate. Not having to carry a big sum of cash around is a big plus point too.

I just changed money for my SG trip, this is the rate I get from PJ (Malaysia) area hope it does help u.

Money changer Buy SGD: RM2.56
Money changer Sell SGD: RM2.59

i believe the last time i saw in MV was 2.67/2.69 ...

Need to give my mum cash for CNY expenses & few months expenses. Can't use credit card.


Buy SGD at 2.56 is good. Last week i saw only 2.53.


Got so high before?

wa serious or not lol..I used RM5180 get SGD2000..if I go MV sell it at 2.67 = I get RM5340, I earn about RM160

Anyone here got recommendation for room to rent? Looking for master bed room. Look through a lot of website but not able to find a good one. Move in date is March. Areas like amk, yishun, bishan, tao payoh, serangoon or any others which are close to town... thanks.

How is the biotechnology industry like in Singapore?

Hi,

I got a good housing agent to recommend. He doing rental/purchasing. Quite reliable.

PM if you need it.

Just curious, how do you define good?

I am looking for one too, similar areas but have to move in by February.

The "/" is confusing. Are you separating the buy and sell rate with a "/"? Highly unlikely.

I think is a selling rate. Meaning you pay RM2.67 or RM 2.69 to buy S$1.00.

If I need to prioritize, I will prefer a "good" landlord/landlady which you can only identify through referral.

I see! Thanks for the advice.

Good can be many terms. I think convenience is the most important to those need to take public transport. Food court and convenient store also need to take into consideration.

True! I am taking all those into account when looking for one. Gosh, it sure is not easy to find a place to rent in SG!
