QUOTE(banana_lover @ Mar 5 2008, 04:50 PM) Sad.... 27 years old. Not much friends in Singapore. No gf also... Everyday eat alone. I feel very lonely... anyone want to make friend with me ? Guess is for you to mix around and get to know people... rather than by yourself. that's not very good thing to happen..

Im in same situation as u too.. waiting for EP to be done (it's the 3rd wk already!! im very excited to join my first job after grad!). I think places which near to mrt and with general facilities will be a good place.. most important of all is about finding food & getting public transport!

It's at the Tanjong Pagar Market/ Foodcourt. It's near the Tanjong Pagar MRT station. When you alight, head towards the Amara hotel direction. Opposite Amara is theTanjong Pagar Plaza. The Market is on the left side of Tanjong Pagar plaza. Haven't played futsal since coming over to singapore last year. Not able to find kaki's to play. Anyone out there need an extra kaki for futsal??

You no need to be in singapore and S'pore contact number to get a job. Those 2 above only increase your chance but not a must. This post has been edited by jimmy79: Mar 7 2008, 11:14 AM

Hi guys, I'm a uni student on vacation who is seeking for a temporary job (say 3 months) in Singapore to gain some experience. I tried to search for jobs on websites like jobstreet.com but all the requirements say "applicants must be SG citizen or PR" So I would like to know if it's possible for a Malaysian like me to apply for a PR straightaway then apply to that job? What are the steps and prerequisites? How long would it take?
Thank you in advance

Hihi, new to this thread.
Anyway I am in discussions to join a 3-year project based in Singapore, the job is more or less finalized, just need to talk details like salary and benefits.
Well, I just want to know what is the rough equivalent of salary <===> Standard of Living between M'sia/SG. i.e., right I'm earning (including bonus) about ~rm4k/month. For this amount of money, what is the "equivalent" in Singapore for a similar-level of living standard? sgd 4k?
