Landlord either in SG or JB for whole unit also can be weird. Typical stupid rules include no overnight guests, even for family members. Weird one like can't move the furniture around, go into the house for checking without informing you, use too much water and electric will damage the pipe and wire. Best to get all written in contract, anything not included no need talk. Those are sudden landlord earning quick bucks and not professional landlord.

You lady stay in SG better la, JB for guys only.

Maybe not prestigious enough to SG. My brother got it after 1 month of working. But then he got family ties here, property, lousy undergrad from uk school and lousy grad school from us, but ridiculous salary and job title as fresh grad cause the company his father one. You can go the opposition rally and quote this for the locals already.

PR parents don't want their son to join NS so did not apply for him. Maybe suddenly give birth during holiday in SG. Maybe parents also EP then give birth here.

O so you think you Singapore son of soil ah being born here? SG must give you priority first before other foreigners in your PR application ah? If other foreigners got it before you then you suspect some foul play ah? Malaysia teach you well in the son of soil policy man. That SG cert only say your 1st appearance is in SG land, but as alien, not with any privilege.

And you come from "prestigious" uni some more. Wah lao black sheep of the school must be, please don't reveal your school name, it bring shame to them.

O they check now? My bro got his PR under the PMET scheme but Mindef just send him letter say exempted coz under PMET 1st generation. He was about 28 29 or so that time. What use to the army for guy so old, later spy some more.

If you renounce it to skip NS after getting so much subsidies, you will have some trouble getting work pass, not to mention PR, according to ICA website. You think peasant can rip off the gahmen so easily ah?

You should go understand why the locals hate CPF and see its acceptable to you or not. Maybe 1 year before you retire, they introduce maximum sum and apply it to PR/ex PR too, paying you 100 dollar per month for living cost until you die then the leftover go to nation building fund .

Or don't work so hard. Got minimum salary for CPF contribution one. Around 1k range.

Hidup PAP. Horse still run, dance still jump, 50 years more no change. Everything up up and awayyy.

O so pap wins and you make policies now? Acting pm ah?

Thanks uncle big boss macik.

Free smoke for those smokers. For non-smoker, go get your free trial. Sniff deep deep.

0.01 is a big difference leh for us normal folks. 100 sgd you get 1 rm more, 1k you get 10 rm. Wah you drop 10 rm you not convenient to pick it up? That day I lost 1 sgd I flip my office upside down already. Banks operate in 6 decimals, client sure jump ship if you want them to take 5 decimals. 3 decimals you don't mind already ah, can you consider our bank if you want to invest some dough?

My toddler nephew kena food poison, go hospital observe two days, slap with a 5k bill. If you get toto one of your kids sick during the first few months, can borrow ah long already. You need to plan for emergencies like this. So miss the days where one working father can raise 3 kids.

Really? You mean those not so bright children of EP and S-Pass from lower income family cannot have basic education in SG? . Let the rich be rich and the poor be poor dumb and dumber? A bit don't make sense leh first time hearing this. Wah lao my future local born non-pr son die liao don't think he will be clever enough to fight the foreign baby talents.

Next time tell daugther find husband must either bank mogul or oil tycoon.

Hidup jibby! 3.3 next target. Getting pay raise everyday.

Need to have ties in SG. If just ripping rental income might as well take back the PR charge foreigner tax rate.

My understanding for SG one is like this.
Permanent Resident, like its name, is permanent as long as you just reside in SG, mean you good good stay here don't work also can but don't go out the borders officially. To go out you need REP (as PR), permit from gahmen for you to go spend your SG money else where. If no REP, you re-enter to SG as tourist. For those PR coming from work permit, bad huh, still go back holding permit, better hold passes like EP more prestige.

Economy not so good you know, market down down down, you can enjoy your break when they retrench you. If break too long, you scare company fly you kite, company also scare you run road one. My own experience is 3 months break after graduation company still ok with it. Then my current maternity + 1 year sabbatical leave, let's see next year still here or not .

Go INSEAD! Borrow ah long die die also must go there. Money flow in like river after graduation. Nus for poor and noob folks like me only. Engineers good what, open company be boss shake leg. I see my hubby half of the time stay at home one.

All the bosses are like that. They enjoy we work . What do people do in consulting? Ah cat ah dog also call themselves consultants now. Just talk few minutes charge few k that kind?

Holland V is an atas place. It feel like a taman area in Malaysia. Not much high rise. Nice eateries and hangout place. Peaceful surrounding to raise kids. It used to be less accessible by public transport so its not polluted by peasants. Not sure what happen there now after they built the MRT station.

The place get crowded in the weekends. People come in from other areas to destroy the calm. Finding carpark is nightmarish. Eateries full of people. Expensive but ok if you got the money.

Never stay at KL before so don't know how Setapak look like leh. Jurong East should be ok got shopping complex got hospital. But it is coming up as a new township so rental would be going up steadily. Jurong East like not a lot of housing around it too. Common folks mostly stay a bit further up, Lakeside, Chinese Garden like more housing. Avoid Boon Lay if possible, too crowded with FTs and the air smell like industrial gas. Can PM our resident estate tycoon sgrealestate for recommendation.

So sad right. Mean those people are mostly underpaid. How can one give up 30% to 50% for rental. Something wrong with those greedy landlords hogging few units each and still keep buying like no people business. Should have AABSD introduce ASAP follow by AAABSD. Lucky I got sugar dad can stay for free .
