Malaysian jailed for failing to present passport at Woodlands checkpoint

A Malaysian technician who entered Singapore at Woodlands checkpoint without presenting his passport for checking was sentenced to six weeks' jail on Tuesday.

Mohd Sani Mohamad Salleh, 33, admitted to an amended charge of failing to present his Malaysia passport to the officer on duty before he entered the country on April 21. He was originally charged with attempting to enter Singapore without a valid pass.

A district court heard that Mohd Sani told an Immigration and Checkpoints Authority officer that day he did not have his Malaysia passport with him. He handed over his Malaysia identity card to the officer.

Two Aetos officers arrived at the counter to escort him to the arrival car secondary office.

i do not know the market rate for ur field...so i cannot comment much on the salary.
i was in ur shoes before my wife (back then fiancee) came to sg first.
i know the desperate feeling of u wanting to be with your partner and the frustration of not even getting calls for interview. (it took me 6 months to secure a job and i had 5 years of experience back then)
all i can say is keep trying...your fiancee can help too by searching for openings in her company
get a sg prepaid number and state the number in your resume...it will help.

we are in the same situation laugh.gif

get sg prepaid number<- everyone told me so hmm.gif
