I dont know the exact economics on all of the extra cost that the employer incurs hiring a s pass or wp compared to an EP holder in relation to the amount they gotta pay an EP but it sounds around what u mention.

If your paid the minimum of 3.5K on an EP, there are some people i know on S Pass who easily make more than that. Mainly engineering background as supervisors.

What does that sentence mean?

"CCT-THE MCST PLAN NO.129 SGD 50.00 589790200486" Anyone know what this kind of transation is? Got an unrecognized debit to my account. Google seems to say it's some sort of Management Corp Strate Title thing but I don't own any property in SG leh.

Edit nvm, figured it out liao

u cant hold 2 license as stated by deodorant but enforcement and monitoring is weak... u can still hold both...

the question is, why do you need an extract of ur driving info... u tell them for insurance purpose la... dont go and say u wanna convert
congrats cpf is not given to u, it is deposited into ur cpf acct, which you as a newbie can hardly access ur $$$... a huge portion will be deducted from ur pay... so there's pros n cons

accommodation can be as cheap as $ 300 if your're willing to share a hdb room/stay in hostel

a bit on the low side, but before saying so.. do you have any qualifications required to be an internal auditor? or are you just a freshie business student molded into one?

my accommodation and food is half ur amount

those are tradesman with supervisory roles, at least 5-15 years exp... and their pay is usually for compensation for working in harsh environment eg shipyard, construction site, high rise, factory... etc etc

dont show off... we know you bought 2 condos at the same time...

Or i could tell them i need the extract since i plan to drive in japan, qatar and maybe sydney for work purposes. I am also considering just straight out applying for an international license.

This might be old news but I think there are still some of us that do not know about it. Register your number for DNC to prevent tele-marketing.

On top of that, anyone have contact or know where I can rent car (with driver) to go from Aljunied to Gelang Patah (2 days before CNY)? What is the price range?

there's international license in sg?

why not take a cab?

Cab in SG will/can go outside SG?

Uhm, don't know why are you so paranoid. People have been answering, employers need not pay levy for EP holders. If the "extra burden" that you are referring to is the levy, then yes, you are right.

only had my working leather shoe and sliper haha but thanks for inviting...

You will be taxed in Singapore and do not need to be taxed in Malaysia.

not all buy some yes,..

tq for d info...

msia n sg signed double tax treaty agreement, as long as u r taxed one side u wont be taxable at the other side

I see. Thanks

I am thinking of finding a job in Singpore and since you are in IT field, so do you think a java J2Ee programme asking for SGD4k is too high?? With around 2 years working experience.

Thanks.

Guys, is SGD 2400/month a reasonable salary. (I have a RM2800 offer in Malaysia)
Experience : Fresh graduate
Field : Civil and Construction
Title : Structure Design Engineer
5 working days / week

Hi guys, was wondering how much would a cheap studio apartment (whole unit) cost in rent per month? Considering going to SG after a few years work experience, and tbh don't see myself living well with housemates.

4k is on high side for employer. Unless you perform very well during interview or impressed the interviewer, but the risk is they will not short list you when saw you asking for 4k. You may try with 3.5k because assuming fresh grad is 2.5k and 2 years later with 1k increment is very high (about 20% every year).

The ratio is 1:0.85. If you find RM 2.8k in Malaysia is reasonable then SGD 2.4k is also reasonable.
