because there is nothing to say?
all you get is a letter saying your application was not successful.
there may or may not be a time frame stated in the letter on when you can try again.
no reason on why it was not successful.

Just curious,
is anyone facing trouble having their maxis/hotlink number on roaming in sg?
it seems like it is not working recently and wondering is anyone facing the same issue as me?
I can no longer request for TAC without my maxis/hotlink number working in sg =(

Why aim for mediocre life. Go for 5Cs like the rest of Sinkie

S'pore shut off 2G service. Your phone has to be on 3G if want to roam

Yeah, i am actually using mi4i which is able to operate on 4G.
It was working last week but it is currently showing as "No service".
Just wondering is anyone facing the same issue

Everyday after work back home and check, before bed mid-night check again the slot. Some said system will release those cancellation during mid-night time (No idea how true is this, mine wasn't mid-night but weekend). When they release new slot will be 6 months forward. Otherwise, get ready docs and wait people cancel and got release and u get u slot by skipping all those queues. What I did is "check every single day" and refresh whenever got time.


Yes, it really depends - Some people need "cash" right now than retire plan, not everyone the same. Some has medical expenses to cover for family, kid's education etc. Not everyone earn decent money after deducting their necessities, like housing loan back in MY for family etc.

What knwong said is true. U got it the other way.

I agree on "most" people plan to stay in SG permanently, but not everyone walk that path to the end. Some people just have families to take care or commitment that they need to leave SG and their plan behind.
There are people that plan to retire elsewhere, due to family and alternative retirement plan as well.
I am not an expert, but an illustration, one uncle retired and got big sum of money in CPF at 60 years old, assuming he can lived up to 80 years old. He need to have at least 20 years of cost of living (with inflation year on year) and medical expenses (SG is rated world's top medical and expensive medical fees of course). The cost of living will be totally different after 60 years forward, hence they have no choice but to work part-time. Govt said "U don't work, u get sick and u got nothing to do, and got no money", so go to work. So, SG have Re-employment act, incentives for employing senior workers etc.
Assuming u can withdraw it in full, with FX to MYR. U can easily use the money to buy a landed house with 20 years of maid service, plus medical fees in suburban area.
Nevertheless, its my long personal view, does not mean that I plan to retire in MY, of course I would prefer retire and settle down in SG

so from the link above

WEST MALAYSIANS only can withdraw in full at age above 50yo to 55yo and no more a PR
as for
EAST MALAYSIANS or any other FOREIGN COUNTRY, they have the liberty of withdrawing in full with no intentions of returning for work and residence, meaning no more PR

kesian west malaysians...

both sim card slot is on 4G?
Why not you move your msia sim card to first sim card slot and see if it works?

We already discussed this topic previous in this thread. If msia on dual sim phone, with 2nd sim card slot running on 2G, it definitely wont work.
i have to use two phone just for the msia number to work because of ending of 2G network in singapore.

I'm looking to change RM to SGD at the rate of 3.12 or 3.13 depending on amount. PM me if anyone interested

Hey I came across your post in the v19 thread on how finance is overrated in SG. It would be helpful if I can get some advice from you. I've gained entry into a Top 10 uni in the world and am weighing my options to finance my education. If I agree to receive a scholarship from one of the many institutions in Malaysia, I would be subjected to serving my bond in Malaysia for 6 years whilst receiving only pitiful remunerations as compared to the global standards. My question is how accessible is the financial sector (IB/HF) to Malaysian fresh graduates from overseas? Also, how do BB in SG view people from the Malaysian financial sector? Are the doors open to those from Malaysia at the VP level or are they essentially closed to those outside the BB circle in SG? Thank you in advance for answering my questions.

Just completed the formalities. Surprising to receive guide book for new PR

Just call ICA and inform them?

Sweat...
Went to change my singpass details and the auntie straight tell me to the face...singapore no more singaporean lol...=_=" like so beh syok us foreigners here

No la she not boh song. She is telling u to fai fai become true blue sinjiaporean.

Take the hint, convert to singaporean today! Majulah singapore

lol...no lor...
like not happy at all,then say they start voice out d haha...
i say i cannot see singaporean also xD

if u r using an older dual sim card ph model like me, only 1 sim can be enable on 3G/4G. meaning if your SG sim is working, then your MY provider on roaming will fail.

temporary solution, to receive MY bank TAC to your MY provider on roaming >> just manually switch over on the <mobile network selection> i.e for Samsung hp. after done your e-banking, then switch back over to your SG sim card.

permanent solution 1) change to new dual card 3G/4G enable hp; or 2) carry two hps

soon in future there might be more singkie outside singapore than in singapore itself.
extinction is coming lel

Funny, as if her grandparents or great grandparents were Singaporeans

Yeah... There is such rule... Can renounce and take everything and go back to East Malaysia.

Actually the keyphrase is "residing in West Malaysia". I don't know how they verify this though. If you can proof that you are going to reside in other countries or even East Malaysia, I think you have luck getting back all the CPF earlier

https://www.cpf.gov.sg/Members/Schemes/sche...rounds#Item1699

I think 1 year? Fail then need wait 1 year if not wrong.

Call and ask. Else you won't be able to receive the IPA letter.

Mi4i is only single sim 4G, another sim will be on 2G.

You can switch you SG sim to 2G, MY sim to 4G then you will be able to connect to network d.

Now Singapura really maju liao... They fully phased out the 2G network unlike in certain area in Malaysia still rely solely on 2G network

Answer her... Who ask Singaporean all kiam siap don't want make more babies

Nationality doesn't matter for banks as long as shinny degree. Cream of world top 10 uni SG won't be your only pick. The job will look for you, not you look for job. Take Malaysia's scholarship or not now then see your analysis leh, you accepted into Top 10 university, should be able to make the judgment call.
