Morning all taikos,

I would like to ask what is the chances for us Malaysian to work in Singapore nowadays? After all the levy and etc....

I am from banking sales background (mostly), thinking to go SG work as banking back office support/customer services/ or other possibility.

Anyone of you got any advise for me this newbie?

Btw, i have a quick look through on the first page it is very informative. Thanks TS.

Dont mind to try, but not sure if i can handle difficult customers in SG.

Plus i feel turn over for bank sales staff is very high (based on my experience in MY)

Singapore customers are very demanding one you know. You need to have thicker face and learn how to lick boots if you want to sell financial products. Many high net worth customers here.

Or do you have a partner

nope, still single.

But let's said if your stock is lost, then you have to pay for it right?

Beli rumah and easier to job hop, no?

That's for individual family to go figure out and make it work. Gomen shouldn't apply blanket rule over an arbitrary spending figure based on the lifestyle of a high rolling expat banker..

Also.. if epass holder can bring family in good for singapore economy.. more mouths to feed means more local spending and less money can be transferred overseas.

Hi, when would be a good time (as in which month of the year) to apply for PR? Anything else I should take note of? I heard people saying that beginning of the year is the best as you will stand a higher chance. Is this true? Can someone enlighten me ?

Yes 1.2k is after deducting my target savings.

I'll be working at midview city so I need a room at bishan or amk then I can take bus also no problem.
My only issue is with room, I cant share because I sometimes sleep very late and have difficulty sleeping even with slightest noise or light.
Im wondering if its possible to get a non share common room for 500 ard that area.

I guess we have different point of view then... 
No right or wrong answer just on how willing u are to spend...

Buy insurance when you perceived risk (like accident, poor health, loss of income, fire disaster, etc) is better to be borned by insurer. Don't buy just because you are young and premium is cheap (that's insurance agent gimmick).

Honestly speaking I actually hear many bad insurance buying decision than the good side of it. So do your due diligence

I have 2 insurance clients which I look into their processes. Their underwriters easily approve young applicants policy because statistically these group of people are less prone to problems. It's a good income for the insurers

Anyone PR of SG tried using passport less than 6 months to enter SG b4? Is it still allow to enter? My passport will be less than 6 months validity period but Msia passport shortage. Doubt if i am able to get a queue number.

You are allowed to return to M'sia since you are M'sian. But to exit M'sia will be problem - if M'sia custom doesn't stop you, S'pore side will

Software Developer. EP.

Also, I should not be expecting CPF right?

Hi all.. Questions, from the application received from jobline, the pass stated was "Type of Pass: EP" , which is stands for "Employment Pass" right? And reading from the MOM page, EP holder "Candidates need to earn at least $3,300 a month and have acceptable qualifications." right? Or for some cases, it doesn't matter?

Of coz leh wah lao. Eat bread drink water only happen in movies or the school days please loh. No 5C no talk straight.
