It's not as easy as it seems. They need to pay higher levy for foreign workers now. If im xwrong, SGD 300+ per pax.

I also heard that the big4 firms in Malaysia were reluctant to recruit foreigners as they had to pay for the visas+levies too, odds are, this applies to Sg big firms and they are particularly selective on hiring foreign workers. only those with experience will be considered.

Now even the Sg graduates also offer themselves for below market rates, needless to say, the Sg firms will surely prioritise sg local graduates (no need permits, levies and quotas to applied for permits)
