You might jam at the woodland or tuas Kastam for few hour due to the mas selamat case. So bring some food with you.

a quick question. for the following scenario;

Year 1 : work in malaysia, salary 2k RM
Year 2 : work in Singapore, salary ~2.2k SD
Year 3 : work in malaysia again, salary ??

would my 3rd year salary be around my current 2.2kSD amount converted to RM, or it would be lower according to the malaysian rate. IT field.

thnx

its no brainer as no employer in his/her right mind to pay someone 50-100% more for the same thing
well, why do you want to come back in the 1st place?

It should be alright, because I ever brought brand new macbook in, but i opened up the box and put the macbook seperately rclxms.gif

You can try checking out the Singapore Customs website at http://www.customs.gov.sg


Anyway, the infomation that I provided earlier about the backpackers hotels may not be up to date, but it gives you an overall glimpse so you know what to expect. Another good website that you can see is http://www.hostels.com/en/sn.html?

Remember that you can always walk away and check out another hotel if you find that the price is not right. This is to prevent those bad ones from overcharging you. (Some might claim that they only have availability for the more expensive rooms, etc)


Good luck to all going for job interviews, hope you get your dream job! rclxms.gif

ic2. its just that im trying to imagine the prospects of working in singapore, and then what the situation would be once i return to malaysia.
if i were to work in singapore, it would be a short term thing. 2 yrs max. anyways, still gathering info on whether its worth it to work in singapore..

Lower cost of living in Malaysia and higher pay in Singapore, so it will be good if you work in Singapore.

But, if you want to have kids, not good to study in Singapore because the government there subsidise for the locals, not foreigners. So you pay more for education.

A 2-year working stint in SG sounds good, can put on resume in future that you have experience working overseas, etc. =)

GeneJin Sorry mate haha kind of rush ~ have to go out for breakfast hehe

Well....im wondering we are not S'porean the salary we asking can be the equal or average pay with S'poren?

And i think most co. prefer hiring S'poren or PR at Jobsdb... is just my observation for 2 months...
