it's currently tenanted but my friend might be moving to overseas soon...

HSBC Malaysia I assume? If agent or HR for SG asking you whether you have rights to work here then you leave the name here haha to blacklist them. No recommendation. Da thread boss here maybe have some for you. PM him - Deodorant. He on expat package transferring from MY. I just a junior officer treated with local pay.

what new law ar?

SVP is junior officer

The new law regarding Singaporean shall be the priority of hiring.

First off, just ask if you are in doubt in anything in life. I wont mind answering questions, even if it is a dumb one. I never believe in such thing as a dumb question, look more stupid assuming the wrong answer. I am just here to help, not to pick up drama. Never assume things and fill up the blanks your way, I dont have much time to think about so many aspects to my query here. It is not my job to reply forums here, I will try my best to reply based on what I know. It wont hurt asking ,"razo2, how you come about to know the exploit of converting malaysian licence to SG?" or "Does it apply to Johor only?"

But I cant accept people accusing me of things that I dont support. It is common news to know how these people get corruption, especially in Malaysia. I am just telling what I know, it is up to other people to abuse the system. Some people might like it, some people (like you) dont. I hope you can understand it is not only me that know this exploit. My friend dont join this forums and he knows how to exploit it. I was just curious how they manage to bypass the database in the government, but I often forget how easy it is for them to forge such things. Perhaps the clerk even got the administrator password to the database, i wont be surprised. I am the kinda of person that like to know stuff to the bolts and nuts. Apparently being a smart ass, is not the best thing after all.

Personally I dont like corruption, I had mentioned it in a sarcastic way on my first reply. Maybe it is hard to tell. My apology for that. You and I know how much we hated the corruption, but some people just like how grey matter help solve a lot of problems in life. Even I dont know about it until my friend told me, I must say I am lucky to be able to convert my licence easily with the Australian licence.

Is just a question about how they can sponsor you to get the job.

Most often time they use it to lower your hire price.

If you are a Malaysian, I think it is easier to get the EP pass. Experience people is a lot easier as well. Last 2 years, I know a few friends that were in Malaysian banking line. They manage to get a job in SG after a few years experience (minimum 2 years as far I known).

No one deny that they dont. It is just a clause that they use it against you. We are not big enough to take those bribe apparently.

I'll try harder then. Dont really agree with "If you are a Malaysian, I think it is easier to get the EP pass." jz turn down a assistant manager offer in my office. sigh..

i think its easier leh...

I think what razo2 meant was, easier for Malaysians among other foreigners to get the EP. I got mine approved within a day.

Just finish my briefing with 3 new colleagues. 2 foreigners 1 local. No prioritise of local hiring whatsoever feedback from the HR. EP applications were smooth I was told. Don't worry about those rules, worry on how to level up your own competencies better. Banking sector btw.

Junior officer how to drive x6 and fly Silk Air back home weekly?

Not 100%. but word of mouth goes that it is easier. Maybe due to the culture. But then, there are so many of these crazy cases of people just dashing through immigration with a car (mostly Malaysian drug smuggler mules). Things might slowly build up a wall.

Many possibilities...

1. Make false report as being a junior staff lor
2. Corruption lor
3. Borrow fron ah long to buy lor
4. Fama buy lor
5. Etc etc

Nope, don't need to wait till end of the year. After you report to work in your new company, file for re-assessment. Check here. IRAS will GIRO the amount to your bank account.

You will pay your tax in the following year.

'Allowance' from a loaded engineer boyfriend maybe?

Shhhhhh diam don't say too much. A lot of haters here.

Yes correct. 6. Get a rich gold turtle engineer husband.

Just got mail from employer that work permit application has been approved. Have to travel down to Singapore in these few days for medical examination. About this, do I have to wait for the report to produced and submit to MOM myself? Or usually the clinic will send to company directly?

Here is some weird part, the IPA letter stated that my salary is 2k however the employer promised to give me more than that and was official in my offer letter. Is this valid ar?

Sorry for asking a lot of questions ya

Thanks guys, ill continue to send my resume then. hahaha Dividend seasons sigh..
