Otherwise, make Louisville Slugger's legal carry for pedestrians.

About 4 times my PR got rejected, after rejection in 2017, now applied again during August 2019. Unfortunately I believe you've already answered your own question. If you've already applied 4 times and been rejected 4 times, the chances of your PR ever being approved are pretty much zero. (In fact ...

Perhaps we should leave them in and generate more traffic.

I’m hopeful of attending too.

Strong Eagle covered it. Unless you are a Singapore citizen or permanent resident, you will need an EntrPass/employment pass/work permit to lease an apartment. Simple as that I'm afraid.

To the OP, as SMS said, if there is anything about the contract clause that you and your wife are unhappy with, she shouldn't accept the role. When I stepped off the plane here about 25 years ago I was also under the burden of an employment contract with a local firm that had grossly unfair terms re...

If you think SG is bad for smart phone addiction, you should take a trip to HK. I'm pretty sure they have their phones surgically attached to their faces.

Does your rental contract have an itemised list of what the rental covers? eg $XXXX for apartment, $XXX for furnishings, $XXX for Utilities etc? There may be a way to determine a fair reduction of your monthly rent from that. The only other thing I can suggest is to do as PNGMK says, and get an esti...
