Any bus recommendation from Sg to Mont Kiara/One utama?
The ones that I tried is Odyssey, which is not bad but costs quite a bit...
I need something more budget friendly...

The cheapest one will be First Coach.
Five Star and another one is usually by season.

It is worth to pay for Odyssey, after trying for few months, Odyssey so far take the shortest time to reach to KL from Sg.

Never used remittance service by the money changer. So not sure about their service but You can use either DBS remit or transferwise. Both of them have a very good rate (close to market rate) and the fees are very low. I prefers Transferwise because they have more currencies available to transfer your money not just for SGD. I used to live in US & UK for years and this is the service that I used to transfer the money back home. So far, they are really good, fast and user friendly.

ps: You can register from the link below for Transferwise if you are interested. I'm not working for them btw. haha smile.gif

Thanks. But Transferwise is reliable? Because usually will send by large sum. And is it able to send to any bank?

I normally using DBS to remit online. At least DBS won't eat my money biggrin.gif Always send to Maybank so far never fail.
How about the rate? Good? The rate that it shows when we key in at the website accurate?
I can't understand "sia" and sometimes in msg my colleague always type "gg" which for gamers it stands for good game but they treat it as gotta go/gonna

I think other still ok biggrin.gif

Because DBS sometimes is lower by few cents from the real rates. So, if need transfer large money, a bit not worth.
Currently, tried Arcade Remittance, need to pay $10 for the service or need to exceed 10k for free remit, it will reach to ur Malaysia account in the next day.

Hey guys I'm looking to intern in SG. Preferably in one of the BIG 4s accounting firm since I already got experience in EY Malaysia.

It's fairly straightforward right apply for working holiday pass (WHP). But just wondering how much they pay for intern and is it enough to survive for at least 2 mths.

around 800SGD?

Thanks. 800SGD to 1000SGD there la right. Are you familar with the Work Holiday Pass? I have more questions tho on the work holiday pass.

How hard is it to get WHP? From the website it says 2,000 capacity at one time.

Also, if my internship commencement is in January 2018, when I should apply? How long it takes from the day I apply to the day I get approved?

Hmm, usually the HR will help u to do so?
For the application process, from MOM websites, take around 3 weeks.
