There are many expats Indians from south as well as south India is closer to Singapore. I would imagine there are similar number of north and south Indians.sundaymorningstaple wrote:Tamil, Hindi, Malayalam?
Tamil probably the easiest to assimilate with the Local Indians of Singapore, though there is a sizeable local Malayalam population here as well. The majority of EP, S pass holders are, I believe, of the more northern ethnic indians, Hindi, Punjabi, etc.,etc.
Maybe WE40 can better answer this as I'm only married to a local Tamil and also have a local Malayalam Son-in-Law (his parents are still PR's like me after 3 decades).

Thank you for your reply.Wd40 wrote: Regarding PR chances for Malaysian Indians, I have no clue. My guess is regardless of whether you can integrate or not you fall in the Indian race quota, and will be subjected to the same quota restrictions. Best is to just go ahead and try. Even better is to marry a local and then try.

I agree. The thing is Indian quota is already over subscribed. So I would imagine only best of the best get it. For example, the CEO of a million dollar company employing hundreds of locals or guys like Piyush Gupta. Like really decision making high level executives. If these guys don't get PR they are likely to move and take their business with them. The next essential category, Foreign Indian spouses/children of SCs. Etc.yesitsme wrote:Only based on anecdotal accounts.All things being same, Malaysian Indians are higher in pecking order.
