as i know is 20k sgd. recently the cash and tt rate are quite a lot better than DBS

No need 20k lah

I thought tt and remittance refer to same things ? my bad

the last time my colleague asked, Arcade Plaza Trader requires sgd 20k to waive the $10 service charge. Not sure bout Crown.

Yes, tt and remittance are the same at least for me. DBS Malaysia Remit did not give good rates recently

I just remit. Above 10k no need service charge

Looking for 1 male roommate:
- within walking distance of Boon Lay MRT
- $ 375 per month including utilities
- air cond room (1 room 2 person)

Pls pm me for more details. Thx

hi guys..
anyone of you bring a desktop over plane before? will have any security issue? just the desktop without monitor..

As checked baggage no problem at all...

As carry on, well if it meets the allowed size then you can but you will prob have a lot of ppl looking weirdly at you and maybe you will make a couple of security agents giggle but you can do it

I suggest detaching the hdd if mechanic so it doesnt take any "dry" hit, it might break..

I guess it's not allowed to bring large piece of metal kind of stuffs go on board. It's due to security concern I presumed.

Hey, sifus. May I know what is the significance of reporting residential address to MOM ? Let say, my landlord tell me that he will put my name under another address since his house tenant number exceed the specified no. Can I accept it ? Thanks.

eh guys. normally DBS remit exchange rate cut off time is what time a?
i heard ppl say if remit the next working day. the rate won't be as per shown

5 or 5.30 can't remember either one.

Yes if you remit after the cut off time the rate will be a lot lower. Tried it once. Ain't going to do that again.

Just remit in the middle of the day then you're safe.

job offer Rm3500 in malaysia and $2500 in sg .
Which one should i pick ?

If you ask me it's pretty obvious I would take the 2500 sgd just for the experience. But it doesnt go a long way.... pretty basic living

Freshie? Don't look at money for now.

Aim long term, which one gives you CAREER GROWTH

Sometimes can't don't look at money now. Especially in Malaysia. 3.5k ain't a lot now haha... If a car is a must and has to pay rental then 3.5k probably just right without much savings That can't be said for 2.5k in SG. Still can live a moderate life without starving or going extreme to save on food. Can still make quite a big sum of savings.

if nth happens. then nth will happens.
if something happens that involved u or the address u registered to. then u may be in trouble. touch wood
just imho, try avoid this complication if can.

I'll attest to that. I basically supercharged my KL lifestyle, keep half my pay for the missus back home and still have a fair bit left of luxuries. In all I'd probably say 1/4 goes for living expenses, 1/2 for the missus/savings and the rest just sits there waiting for me to find something stupid and unnecessary to spend it on. Caveat though - I'm no spring chicken like most of you guys and the clubbing life's probably about 5 years or so behind me. Heard that that can be expensive.

edit: I also don't drive in SG, unlike in Malaysia. Don't miss driving, and enjoy not having to pay for petrol lol.

I'd err on the side of caution and find another place to stay really. It is a fine city after all lol.

Wan some feedback from sifus here...
If I am to bring protein supplement from Malaysia to Singapore, will I encounter any problem?
I am planning to go by bus...
I think it will be easier to just throw into check in luggage in flight, but I wanna explore the possibilities here...
Thanks in advance!

It wont be problem, i always carry protein from Msia to SG, just remember to unseal it just in case the officer asking you.
I kena ask one time and i said the protein is for my own use and it open already, then they let me pass.

BTW i travel by bus.
