How much minimum can an accountant earns in SG giving that he has completed his ACCA and have 2.5 yrs audit exp?

All buses are OK... but don't ever buy Aeroline, it's freaking expensive and u pay $20 more for the lousy meal box..

Harlo guys, today i juz got an offer as an accountant for $3,800; 2.5 yrs exp. Anyone here can tell me izit worth to take up the offer onot? What is the current market rate now?

May I know which Big4 are you working now? Bcos my cousin oso interested in working in SG Big4

I wonder if $1 is not equal to RM2.38 anymore but only RM1.70 as like 10 yrs ago.. will there still be anyone willing to work in singapore.

Many ppl think Singapore is more advance than Malaysia/KL, but if u go to Hong Kong, u will find Singapore is nothing.. Skyscrapers are everywhere in HK but u can only find it around CBD in SG.

But if u compare KL and SG....then there is nothing can be compare. Even for jeans...singaporeans are wearing original Levi's but Malaysians are wearing pasar malam jeans. Singaporeans are playing their Iphones and PSPs in the MRT but Malaysians are just playing their MP3 in their MP3 players in a crowded sandwiched-packed monorail somemore.

Hi, my boss told me many ppl buy toto in yishun and one more place (forgotten where edy) always strike 1st prize (about 3 out of 10 ppl), izit true?

anyone knows how to go there?

which is the lottery day? How much you need to bet?

hailat lo... come here 4 mths and found myself increase 4 KG oledi...

really dunno is the food here too good or too cheap...

Who can share with me for a freshie with ACCA looking for a job in PWC, EY or KPMG in Singapore. How much he/she could get?

After working for 1-2 years, how much his/her salary could go? Thx

Wah why so expensive? $110 for 1 ticket 1 way? normal price is only $27 for normal express bus or $47 for high class bus. Are you buying at $47 to resell it at $110? Maybe you can scan and post the receipt here bcos my gf who is from Ipoh is interested to buy but only the price is freaking expensive.

BTW, maybe you can sell it Garage Sales as mods won't allow any selling being conducted over here in this thread.

Kthxbye,

My advice is PLS Don't TAKE TRAIN.... as the trains got cockroaches and banana skins....!!!!!

If you wanna buy computer stuffs, don't buy at singapore, go back to KL and buy at lowyat instead (for those who are from KL)... it is about 25% more cheaper after conversion.

For this it is cheap oso, but maybe not 25%, perhaps it's around RM320 if not mistaken. Bcos last month, I just bought all hardwares from MY and assemble it in SG. Total cost is RM3566 but if the same rig same specs, it is around $1,700++ and bcos in Sim Lim I heard alot of tipu case as well, means non-ori parts.

As I have mentioned earlier, it is only worth to work in SG if you are offering a pay of at least $3,500 and above.

Otherwise, it totally worthless and pointless in my opinion especially you need to leave your families, love ones, gf/bf, wife/husband etc etc. There are many more things that you need to sacrifice as well. Hence, by earning only $3.5K and above can compensate for all your losses...

Why are you guys so racist? We are foreigners as well... same as those Chinese from China..

Hi I wanna to ask about insurance.

Do you all buy any life insurance in spore? AFAIK, if you work in spore, you need to buy spore life insurance bcos if you buy msia insurance, they will not pay anything if anything happen to you unless you return to msia every 45 days.

But if u buy spore life insurance, it is more expensive compare dollar to dollar for the same sum insured.

or u guys din buy insurance at all while working overseas???

So, you are the one getting SGD14K to 16K... i guess?
Wah, u dun scare your company will caught you when you disclose the salary structure of ur finance dept?

AFAIK, starting salary for engineering is a bit lower in SG than in MY, SG usually pays only $2,300 and above whereas MY pays RM2,600 and above..

but u may try... no harm trying.. many ppl is jobless here.
