I once had a friend who went for blood donation. The nurse forget to un-pump the check blood pressure thing before removing the needle...godddd...the gore... brows.gif

jokes aside, I went for the body check(X-ray + blood check) at a clinic at Woodlands MRT station last month.
The service & result was quick, but one of the staff attitude was..well..below par as a nurse.

Suggest to find a clinic that is willing to send a soft copy of the Medical Form so that you do not have to go there twice.

Anyone knows which MRT station (without the need to exit the station) can receive Malaysia mobile phone signals? I heard Woodlands MRT station may be able to receive, is this true? Thanks!

Hard unless you have criminal records. It's either delayed or downgraded due to requirements issue

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.

Thanks for replying! You're probably right, but the industry isn't what it used to be, no? With a slower deal flow leading to large fall in recruiting in banks. I have looked at everything and have basically made my decision. I just wanted some insight into whether it is possible to move from Malaysia IB to SG IB after finishing my bond, or if SG banks prefer to hire fresh graduates and promote from within.

Currently holding PR status, planning to apply for citizenship.

Holding one property in Malaysia under my name which is below RM1 Million, loan repayment until 2040.

Will my property in Malaysia remain as my asset once I renounce my Malaysia citizenship? what happens to my existing housing loan ? will the bank re-posses my units ? or do I have to resubmit the loan ?

Anyone experience there before and mind to share.

Thanks

Yes it's possible for EP application to get rejected. Reject liao the company can appeal, and even that can also get rejected. What %age chance of rejection nobody can really say, but factors like if the company now already a lot of foreigners and relatively fewer SC/SPR, nationality of employee, etc all play a part.

But generally Malaysian the rejection chance very low.

My own general input here (I'm not from the banking line so someone please correct me if what I say doesn't apply)

No industry is "what it used to be" if you're referring to 20-30 years ago, but that shouldn't be a big concern to you
As Fiona mentioned there if you graduate with great results from one of the world's top 10 universities, you'll likely get a position
Fall in recruiting affects the average and below average the most, the top guys shouldn't have a problem (unless its a dying industry)

If you have a good track record in MY there will be opportunities in SG. In fact your company may be more than willing to transfer you internally
And all companies should prefer to promote within, hire from outside when there's no viable internal candidate (unless something political is going on)
I don't think banking is any different from any other industry in this aspect
