QUOTE(malleus @ Jul 6 2022, 08:34 AM) JB custom ar? never encountered anything like that before. Even when I was bringing our 2 cats over, they just looked at the carrier and ask: 'live animal izzit?'. I said yes, and was asking my wife to pass me the export permit, but they just waved us through. for food products, check this out: https://www.sfa.gov.sg/food-import-export/b...or-personal-useNot common but I've seen before. Especially SG plate car when stuffed too many groceries at the back until covering up rear view mirror.

Yes. But you need to add in miscellaneous cost and familiar with the terms of use. Usually WP will use bike. WP cannot keep bike or foreign vehicles in Singapore more than xx hrs a day Cars you need to factor in tolls, ERP, parking & RRC charges. If daily commute easily >$60/day This post has been edited by knwong: Jul 7 2022, 08:53 AM

Hi, how should we put our expected salary scale when applying to SG?
Let's say i'm earning RM6k, so it should be SGD5k? Is this the correct approach, assuming it is the same position?

Is this the correct approach, assuming it is the same position? You gotta ask for market rate there. No other rule. Can research those report release by recruitment companies If you are being asked during call/interview, just throw back the question asking them what's their hiring budget for the role
