Based on the responses we've seen here, you stand a reasonably good chance, mainly because of your ethnic group and nationality as well as your longish stay

Thank you for your prompt reply to my inquiry, should I drop an email to check with ICA? Or just patiently waits for them to process? Thank you.

Chinese ethnicity typically gets a heavier weight. However, being Indonesian puts you lower down the pecking order than Malaysia Chinese, which anecdotally seems to almost be guaranteed.

Your biggest hurdle is that you have only been in Singapore for a very short space of time. This you can't do anything to "fix", other that stay longer. We normally recommend at least 2 tax cycles before you even consider applying, some would say 3 cycles.

Depending on what IT you are selling it might change your chances. What does your company sell?

Just wondering, why ppl state their religion?
Does it have any weight in PR or citizen application?

[sundaymorningstaple]

It could if they think that person may also be bringing in radical thinking.

I noticed this too! I wonder if it's because they saw others state it, or if they are thinking it may be important. The latter could be cause such religious distinctions are known to be important in their country of origin.

Well also the common logic is that ICA only asks for relevant information they care about and religion is one of the item on the PR application form you need to fill in. Unless this has changed recently. So there's a logic to believe that it is one item that has some weight. More that MP letter or volunteer work that is not asked. But anyway it seems quite logic that it might have some weight.
