Yeah quite rare here in this forum. Of all female friends i know, none is aware and using this forum. None. Haha

1hour on public transport should be max. But depends on how far you stay away from MRT and how to access your office also. If you need to take feeder bus to MRT transfer to train then get off at MRT need to take another feeder confirm going to take much longer time.

I take bus all the way to work place. Less human more seats more room to breath more private space

Work here 2-4 yrs find one Singaporean guy get married and relax at home

Just share here la Buayas

You don't get what I meant don't you?


Talking about salary...

Actually kinda lucky of me. Almost 2 years back landed my current and my first job in SG and my first job in life at quite an average or slightly below average salary in my field. Had 4 adjustments till date now taking about 40% higher pay compared to 2 years back.

But the work experience isn't entirely pleasing. Luckily the pay made up for some part of that

Spending also went up exponentially

Used to survive on 550 for rental, 450 for misc (food, transport, mobile, groceries, entertainment etc etc). Now is 650 for rental, another 650-800 for misc Haven't account for my excluded expenses (those not day-to-day expenses like getting new shirts/gadgets/birthday presents etc etc)

Insaneeeeeeeeeee

Haven't mention savings. Still got quite a bit of savings.

But 2 years savings can't even afford the downpayment for a car in SG, not to mention a property in SG

Btw anyone got any lubang on property worth buying in JB? Best if the rental can cover the installment.

Go embassy renew la

You can update through your employer. Your employer has to keep the record and update it in MOM system of your latest address.

So you all got pay hike?

Am aware of this but gave up as I found the right room. In the first place the agent engaged me asking whether I'm authorizing her as my representing agent. So... Something fishy but whatever.

They're trying to make a living also anyway.

DBS online remittance also not bad. No service charge somemore.

Wow born in 1993, how long you been working in SG?

$10000 is a lot wei

Yeah so cruel...

25, 2 years into work now. Am getting that range

RM6000. The salary of yours if you're working in Malaysia. A lot eh

1, 2 & 3 ok for my colleagues to discuss eh... Not sure about you all. we did talk about it previously

Go join the crowd catching Pokemon. It's fascinating how so many people can withstand standing under the hot sun catching Pokemon (ie. Vivocity open roof area). Tried once few weeks back. My lousy phone showed warning saying that the device temp has gotten too hot Insaneeeee

Soon... If you don't go JB that often... Then you will start spending without converting the price in SG

You might want to secure a ticket first. Why not just go for the later ones so you guarantee can catch the bus and probably spend some time in SG.

It's Friday night so the ticket might be sold out if you try to get it on the spot.

omg 2.7k... Be engineer don't go finance

See above

Rent in M'sia also not much better la... Don't convert than it's not really nightmare.

It's common and listed in IRAS.

I believe you can open banks like OCBC. But you need upfront deposit of $1000.

Earn 2k per month also easily surpass the 60k/annum mark la

I just opened one like last Sunday at Vivo. Went through a hassle coz my EP card expiry date is on last Saturday

Brought the notification letter from EP renewal yet they demand the IPA which was issued even before the notification letter.

The notification letter even states my new EP expiry date they also don't accept


Anyway printed out the IPA and got the account opened. Straight away transferred like 80% savings from POSB to OCBC.

Last time opened POSB coz company asked for DBS/POSB ONLY.
If you want to put long term FD, POSB/DBS has higher rate for 18/24/36 month period if not wrong. But if you credit salary into OCBC, for the first 50k savings, it's giving equal if not higher interest.

Seeing that for the past 2 years I only kept my money in normal POSB savings account with a tiny base interest of .05%, it's either FD or go for OCBC360.

Not to mention that OCBC360 base interest is the same as POSB (or maybe same as all basic savings account throughout SG banks).

IMO, no harm la... I'm definitely still keeping the POSB account for the purpose of remittance to Malaysia.

Somemore SG "FAST" instant interbank transfer is at no cost unlike Malaysia. If need to transfer fund to Malaysia just transfer to POSB then remit.

OCBC card withdrawal at M'sia OCBC ATM also FOC.


Like promoting for OCBC but I'm construction kuli so... No conflict of interest ya. Just want to share my "research".

Oh ya... Since I have not much commitment, my savings is normally going to be positive every month. Then you get that additional 1%.
Just too bad I don't have enough bills to pay (for the 3-bill thingy) and also don't spend so much on cards each month. Otherwise the interest can go much higher.

You wait durian fall from sky. Slow slow wait ya...

I believe Circle is riding on other's network. They don't have infra if not wrong. Like some telco in Malaysia also. XOX, Redone etc. All don't build their own infra. Instead lease it from the main telcos.

The infra for these network super ex eh...

I thought Malaysia IC + Degree + >2.5k Salary = EP?

NO? I used to be that case. Now my junior also such case.
