will the company usually specifically mention they open for malaysian in the job post, and we only focus on those when applying?
*
No company will do that. It’s just asking for being viralled on social media.

How long does it take for the application process? If i remember correctly, short term visit pass only valid for a month, am I right?
*
Yes a month but very easy to extend now cos of covid. My MIL came in last year we extended her short term pass for 90 days (total). No experience with LTVP application duration though.

Just got my EP approved today! Took a total of 12 days. It was unexpected as well, was told it would likely be a S-Pass instead for a fresh diploma holder like me. Yay don't have to worry about going in uncertainly now 🥳

Nice, welcome to SG! Can PM MacKiddo if you’re interested in joining WhatsApp group for Malaysian laojiaos in SG, can ask for help / advice or just tcss.

that's just an early budget. now looking for cheaper alternatives especially the apartments.

kids 8 and 1.5. Here my elder kid have been attending international school. worried that he can't coup with the demands of local school. for sure i am open to putting him in the local school.
*
As an FT your kid will be last in line for spot for any local school behind all the SCs and PRs. Not so much an issue if you don’t mind any school, but if you’re the kiasu kind that wants to put his kid in elite school then there’s basically no chance

my daughter’s school has leftover after all phases for years…..lol
Not sure abt dragon year though
Did not even went to volunteer

Yea that’s why I mentioned that “if you are the kiasu kind” lol. Actually also depends on area ba, I live in slumgol, tons of young families here, the primary school that just got built opposite my house first intake already ballot, no space at all for Phase 3 (FT kids for those of you reading who dun have small kids).

Hi planning to ask my parent to come visit Singapore . Anyone know if they need to install Trace Together and buy travel insurance with Covid ? Will be taking flight

TT yes travel insurance no. Go ICA website to see latest info lah it keeps changing very often so best to look for it from official source.

Hello all,
What is the procedure for entering Malaysia thru aeroplane from singapore and also back to sg.
Anyone can share your experience?
*
Go mysafetravel and safetravel websites and read the requirements lah, won’t even take 5 minutes. Got specific questions then ask then we can answer. It’s super straightforward now, my parents (60 plus and 70plus) just visited and went back, they also can figure it out I’m sure you can too.

Just came in to rant that now that most ppl are back to WIO, the traffic during rush hour is (back to being?) insane for me living in the slums of Punggol and working in CBD. Like 45-50mins drive one way 😡

LTA will install more ERP gantry and increase the rate accordingly...that'll control the traffic  biggrin.gif

LTA should charge triple ERP for cars that have no passengers, only driver. That will control the traffic and make the roads more efficiently used 😂

gome If your wife internal transfer is more or less confirmed might as well straightaway search for full unit and don’t waste time and effort to do a 3 mths room rental (ps by right u can’t even rent HDB room for that short a duration, needs to be 6 mths. 3 mths is minimum for private ppt).

Does ayone here know if a Msian who is below the age of 50 but had already renounced the SPR and permanently residing in west Msia, what happens to the CPF account?
If not mistaken for west Msian, cannot close and withdraw the CPF money if the age is below 50.
Wondering between the years before the person reaching age 50, what happens to the CPF account that cannot be closed?
*
Still a ways to go before 50 but nothing happens to your CPF acct. It sits there getting the yearly dividend and then once you reach 50 or 55 or something you get to withdraw it (in my uncle's case CPF actually contacted him after he moved back to Msia and told him can withdraw liao cos u cukup umur).

if bike : $4 x 20 days = $80

Is it? Well, it's okay - there's no cancellation fee, and i can cancel anytime. I'll just cancel after I get all my stuff settled.
It is. After my last StarHub contract ended I moved to Singtel/gomo and then M1 a month later and M1 is noticeably the worst among all three telcos, but objectively speaking 'worst' doesn't mean 'bad.' The price is cheap enough that I'm still using it a few months later and haven't bothered changing back.

That car because I like how it look and drive, small cc suv, I honestly find it more attractive than many luxury cars

I drive on weekends, holidays. My parents drive it when I’m in sg

Also buying that car to impress ladies, I’m old and single so I kind of have to resort to materialistic tactic

You from JB? If yes then maybe still can, if not then how often will u even balik kampung to drive it lol
