By all means stay at SG? Border crossing is exhausting and it'll affect your attendance and punctuality.

Always apply first, and only consider when they asked you to sign the offer letter.

Nah, at times it might take longer to process. Just wait.

Work permit is simpler cause it's the lowest among the tiers.

My company usually let them to opt for resign instead of terminating them. Giving em a second chance.

Can't comprehend how people can take up to 100 days of sick leaves.

Precisely. It also depends on which industry you are in. Some take attendance very seriously e.g SIA. If you take more than 1 day of mc it'll affect your performance appraisal.

Then your employer did a good job for 'letting you go'.

Probably it's about time for you to think what's suitable for you.

You can come in anytime as tourist.

Employment wise, it depends on your company. If they have a serious case with you and MOM decided to blacklist you then you are gone case.

Otherwise I don't think a normal termination would affect your future employment much.

The most common reason of employees getting blacklisted by MOM is AWOL 2 consecutive days without proper justification and get terminated.

It happens a lot at my side here.

No such things as fresh grad need to start in KL first. Just give it a try who knows you might get yourself a job.

Yeap, 2 +1 means 2 bedroom and 1 living room. If it's 4 room flat, it means 3 + 1.

It depends on where you are staying. My daily expenses for transport is about $0.97 x2. Telok Blangah to Harbourfront. Some of my colleagues who are staying far away paying like 4 bucks daily.

Yea mang, stay at KL can't see much savings.

Deposit is required, however you may withdraw it immediately after you've created a savings account.

It's never too late to take this drastic move. 6 years ago I bit the bullet and swam to small small island.
