Re: Shooting at US grocery stores
I have friends in Switzerland. That thing above SMS is not really the exact truth. My friends didn't have an AR in the house (and they had boys in national service at home still). I can't recall if it was a voluntary thing but I go the impression that it is not that common now to keep the AR at home...

Re: Applying from outside vs inside Singapore
I was looking for another job while I was already working in Singapore and I had a feeling it doesn't really make anything easier... All initial interviews are online anyway. Of course my situation and position was different. But in general, the problem is more about getting the EP, not relocating....

Re: Dining sets
I've found good sets second hand (often imported by expats who don't want to take them to their next posting).

Re: Retrieve deleted whatsapp
No it's almost impossible. There are some toolkits that claim to be able to do it but I've never had any success.

Re: Applying from outside vs inside Singapore
I'd try to negotiate a country transfer on a hybrid basis (commute back every few weeks?).

Re: Applying from outside vs inside Singapore
There's no difference between EP and DP from a quota basis now. You don't have a network which makes it harder. Singapore firms are adverse to hiring from outside. You need to connect with hiring managers and explain this to them (that you can move quickly). Can you continue at your current job on a...

Re: Orchard Tower- Warning!
Mmm; Subash I don't quite recall it being quite that bad. Those look like lady drink prices. The last two places I ever went in was the Imapema and Bali Hai bar and they were not clip joints (as in you could order a normal drink). Saying that post pandemic they may be going nuts on prices to recover...

Re: Chances of getting PR for Iranians
With the exception of India and PRC, yeah? :D They don't need the extra paperwork that Iranians need. There used to be a website which showed the classifications of SVP and Afghanis, Iranians, Syrians were way down in the very difficult section. My point is that the gahmen is making is clear from t...

Re: West facing house
My main windows face North-East. Just about perfect esp as our windows are only half height (not the more modern full height ones).
