Anyone have any good agents to introduce? My girlfriend just went over to work - trying to help her to find a room (around Bedok, Tampines, Tanah Merah and nearby).

P/s: Sorry if I got the wrong thread ya, not sure where to ask this already.

Bedok 400 can get masterbedroom adi -=) My fren staying in Tampanines for sGD100 per room inclusive PUB lolz..

I wonder how much % of your salary is use to pay rental for those who working in Singapore.

morning... next week I'll be back to Singapore.

Wah...so cheap. must be sharing with few person in a room.. i think. nowadays SG rental so expensive.

Bedok S$400 can make it? i think think 1 common cost tat cheap...
ya maybe sharing is possible ~ S$600 /2 only =S$300 ea + pub S$30 hehe

ok. the bike story. this is my true story.

before i bike to singapore, i used to travel from JB to Science Park everyday.
I drove my car to tambak johor. leave it near a parking there. took bus 170 to kranji MRT.
Than MRT to buona vista. buona vista take bus to science park.

bike story. ok. frankly speaking, i have never rode a bike using the first link.

second link, yes. in first link, there are like thousands of bike and only 3 counters open at one time.
i should say stupid system on singaporean side.

i ride my bike to second link, from my house around 45 minutes. its like 30km away.

the second link is less less less crowded there. only 50 bikes or so, and they have like 15 counters open.

and my office is like 10 mins from the AYE. so fun

oh ya the toll. u have to pay rm1.60 in malaysian toll. then sgd0.70 per entry.

C'on S'pore i know u love Malaysians!!

I hv an old friend who went to Singapore looking for job too. He grad from local Uni & had few years experience in Chemistry stuff. Couldnt secure a place asking for a mere S$1.5k.

A coursemate of mine (graduated), went to Singapore. got a job starting at S$1.2k. Now after 2 years she's getting S$1.5k + 3 years bond for a PR application). Her english not good.

wow 2 yrs experience + 3 yrs bond...
emm not too good i think
Where i have no idea how is the wages pay there but i though there are some rules and guidance where the law of employee deserved some standard pay

Where I have 2 yrs exp but some chinaman co. offer me 2.5k only sigh minus logging left abit only...

well~ never know ~

but s'poreans love to have contract stuff i wonder y?

maybe that guy is a malaysia PR...whahaha...

in fact..sg do have a lot of nice ppl and bad ppl... sometimes got those auntie.... too kiasu already... and those OL ...yishh.. mostly a got look only..
and beware when u r driving in sg .. those taxi cab is beside u...some of there really thought they bought the roadway... wahahah

Singapore has their own salary market compare malaysia, you can't just assume what you get in msia will be same in singapore.
Some fields is higher salary than msia and some is lower.

2 yrs exp offer 2.5k? For me I think reasonable. If you think you worth more than it, just continue look for job until you get a pay that u think reasonable.

PS: if you getting job through agency, you can check with them how much is your market value in singapore with the experience you have.

Any architect here who are working in Singapore?

well take it from a "sinkingporean" take the money and leave, forgot all the shit about PR etc...there are many "sinkingporeans" here who are sick and tire of being screwed by the government...given a choice we would prefer to leave this hell hole...

those slimes are so eager for new shitizens they are resorting to importing pariah prc...who brings along with them their "spittoons" culture and mannerisms...

cost to cost, a lower salary can get you further in malaysia then sinkingpore...here we are screwed everyday by all sort of nonsensical taxes placed only to filled the government coffers...
