and bro.. another thing is..... I mean im jz a junior in auditing... I erm might be abit slow so maybe yea.. I duuno will survive or not...

before I went for the interview last week, I was damn hyped and pumped up for this.. now that its confirmed and I got it, I chicken out dunno y...

a lot of thoughts in my mind now and its like a drastic change in my COMFORT LIFE right now (this is where I intend to change it)..

my thoughts and doubts include, dunno can survive or not, (if cannot survive come back abit malu.. yea, im abit egoistic but humble).. then dunno how the spore culture is over there (friends working there say its like a heaven bla bla but maybe he got used to it)

Favors non-bumis also not good. What if competent bumis? Favors the competent can.

In SG I actually never been discriminated against before, at least not direct to my face, behind my back I don't know. Equal chance of opportunity, pay raise, promotion etc with all the colleagues. Not even in school when I am studying here.

recent years there were number of private institutions upgraded to university such as HELP college > HELP University, APIIT > Asia Pacific University (APU), Taylor's College > Taylor's University, etc

When you're filling up the Employment Application Form / Application Form to apply for the Work Permit (for MOM). What do you fill up the name of the institution/university column if you obtained the degree when it was still a college? (new name / the name at the time you obtained your degree)

** it matters to submit to the MOM?

whatever written on ur piece of paper, put that.. save d hassle of explaining

you mean if you studied at college A malaysia and obtained the degree from University B australia. we should put "University B" at the "Institution" column?
i thought it also create hassles :/ confusing

edit: what's the accepted way by MOM?

hi all..
Currently i have an offering from MNC bank in SG to work for them.
It's a big decision, since i need to downgrade and become Sys Admin. The salary is ok but need to work on shift plus every weekend.

Can i survive with 8k salary in SG?, as im not a PR & there no CPF.
Or should i move near J.B?

I read somewhere that none PR gets a 15% tax.

You will get a taxation of 15% of your total income if you quit your job or work less than 6 months.

hmm...

As long as he/she (foreigner) is in SG for <183 days, then he/she will be taxed at 15%. >183 days tax at resident rate.

Not exactly about quitting or working for >/< 6 months.

Correct me if i'm wrong.

u get tax because u have income
u have income because u are working   
u dun expect babies, children and students to be taxed right?

What i mean is that he can be here in Jun-XX, then only start to work in Jul-XX, then his working period in SG could be <183 days? Isn't it?

I think we are talking bout employment, don't we? Does it has any relation to babies, children or student?

  to be anal abt it...u mentioned foreigner in general   
anyway, my bad there.

you are right...it seems that if one was here in june, start works at july or later, the scenario of work < 183 , stay > 183.
it seems that they look at the stay period according to iras
