Why did you decide to write this at least three times in all the the PR related topics here? To decrease your chances of rejection you should make at least 100 duplicate posts otherwise the spell doesn't work really...
I just wanted to find in any of the threads if any one has faced similar situation and whether the outcome has been different, cos I don't know who will see my post.
for you to find out, you must just use search and not post same duplicate in multiple threads.
Sure , I'll do that here onwards. Thanks for pointing that out and apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Just what Singapore needs, another without any common sense.

Time and Salary. But you will still have the ongoing ethnicity problems thanks to those who came before you. The only time that counts is that which started when you started to be gainfully employed.
Noted on this. Thanks for the info, I really appreciate it

Not going to be easy. Chance will be low because of ethnic quota and also because you were not here from 2017-2018. The counter for total experience/work in SG will reset from 2019 as the start.

Did you come back on the PEP or apply for it after the issuance of the EP?

Job: Investments
Comp: $1m per annum ($350k base + bonus)
