My point is that is not the scenario he was asking about (jobless)
He is asking with a current job of RM10k being offered SGD 3.5-4.0k making the "better than being jobless" statement redundant

I know of real cases like what I was describing, whereby you can accept a job of S$4k, even though you were earning RM10k. It actually doesn't matter he was jobless or not. He could very well be jobless, but even if that's not the case, if he really wants the job, I am saying, it's not inconceivable for that guy to accept the job.

I was shocked to find Expedia more expensive for the same flight - RM3000. Almost fainted when I see it. ๐Ÿ˜‚

flights 1-2 days before and after CNY will always be priced high.
as it get nearer, the seats get lesser (supply drop)

It's the old fool's thinking that advice can only be based off experience
That's why all the old people are left behind in time thinking "I've done it before so i know more than those young guys"

Hi! anyone can tell me which clinic can I go for medical examination as requested by MOM? My Company HR is pretty fresh and she told me any clinic is fine. If anyone could recommend that would be great! Please also advise me on the cost.

Thanks!

Unlikely, I assume u refer to SGD on currency strengthen.
http://www.mt5.com/forex_news/quickview/2018571

My personal view is property in KL price remain flat or minimal change.


On earlier topic regarding to CNY, I am flying back to East MY via MAS and it is indeed difficult to plan since its Jan and most of us starting the year with zero or few days of annual leave. It is easy with a good conversation with manager well in advance.

Your employer is supposed to send you. The detail is sth like your application is approved and they give you a expiry date for you to obtain EP.
