They "buy" the accounts of locals. However every 3 months they can't enter more than 60 days, otherwise ICA will bar them...

Because they drive a lot in a day, they will fill up cheap M'sia petrol in water bottle before departing to work. During inspection at Causeway, ICA officer won't check water bottle content

Can easily chat with those B40 and they are won't be discrete to share these kangtao

Thanks for the enlightenment bro!

S pass is very dependent on the quota available. Even EP now has a new requirement after they were constantly abused.

It's not just your expected Malaysian Chinese that's coming into Singapore. A lot of Malaysian Indians and even Malays are here working, especially in the blue collar sector. Many more such cases than I can remember in recent years. Half the Grab Food delivery drivers are Malaysian (usually Malays and Indians), and most of the security guards are Malaysian Indians. Most of the Chinese blue collar sector works are in the F&B industry (waiters, servers, restaurant captains).

So, yeah, you're right... it's a bit of a flood at the moment.

Hi, I've recently received a job offer to work in SG and my employer has submitted my details for a S pass application.

Unfortunately it was rejected not once but twice with no clear reasons. Checked with my employer and agent both of them do not have any idea the reason why it was rejected. My employer is now trying to appeal for the third time.

Posting here to see if there's anyone experienced any thing similar. Not sure if there's any chance the continuous appealing would help.

Thanks in advance for your insight.

So my original question above still remains unanswered. How do they get a work pass to work as a Grab driver/rider? Who would their employer be as Grab does not "employ" their riders

No idea. Never paid attention to the license plates.

Potentially is this, it's not a highly skilled role so your company might have to prove first why they can't find locals to fill that role instead have to hire foreigner.

Singapore wife with foreign spouse can only buy 2-room flat (i.e. living room + 1 bedroom) only.
Most Singapore women are wealthy, and do not use this option, esp. if they can buy together with another family member too.
Or they can wait till they are 35 and buy the flat alone and the government will even throw in grants.

the meta changed, now there are many new rule
>You cannot employ foreign workers to work at a food stall in a hawker centre, coffee shop or food court. Such operations are small scale and should be manned by owners or family members.
>Degree or Diploma from an accredited institute
>working experience
>Quota requirement for different sector
Sector  DRC
Construction  83.3%
Process  83.3%
Marine shipyard  77.8
Manufacturing  60%
Services  35%
u are out of luck if the quota reached, try your luck next time or maybe not at all because right now 50% or even 90% of malaysia are working in small land
singapore.
sometime if there are too much male > female ratio , they wont take any more male unless u are top 100 uni and powerful male , rich fellas , can contribute a lot to singapore, topkekw , it is normal open secrets since 2015.

Poetry for the Day

we big land malaysia...everyone drive big car, live big house....all want to give these up....all want to work in SG earn SGD.
chinese, malay, indian....all cross causeway everyday

push and shove....every morning, every evening...all kiasu
scream and shout...scared late for work...all kiasi

got oil, got palm, got water.....all no use
no money, no food, no dignity.....all work in sg

complain sg food sucks...yet all eat
complain sg ppl bad...yet all work for them

complain they greedy...yet all rush for SGD in greed
complain they steal our petrol, speed on our highway.....yet all grovel and serve the mighty SG

we look at our economy and shake our head
we look at our leaders and give big sigh
in politics, race and religion we fight among ourselves

In SG we must trust...all for our family
For SGD we must earn...settle our commitments
Let us kneel, let us pray...to SG our savior today and tomorrow.

Few possible reasons, could be
1. Your employer not enough quota
2. MOM feels the role can be filled with locals instead. Low skilled office role harder to approve compared to high skilled office role (under EP) and low skilled 3D jobs (under WP)
3. Your qualitification is questionable in MOM’s POV

Never understood how this pass works. Last time my friend salary lower than the EP requirement, but also managed to get EP instead of SP.

don say last time now i m also quite confuse. my gf should be earning 7k if follow EP requirement and age factor but she didnt even hit the 5k mark.

when i told her this i tot she wont be getting ep anymore but S pass instead, then to my surprise her ep renewal was approved in Dec'23

and i also told her not easy to get PR as it would required years of working in sg etc etc, then her pr approved this month...., she only started to work in SG since Jun'22.

u say i m confuse or not....

Sorry for the bad news. But generally there is no reject reason required by MOM. It may not necessary be your issue. It maybe due to your future employee did not meet certain criteria for S-Pass. Maybe try to land another job and see your application can go through?

Currently SG has tighten their quota process. Company need to explain why they need to hire foreign worker and why local can't fill the job
