But we have a kind of 5 years renewal....so How can we say that PR is a license to settle down here till i die..JayCee wrote:superProgrammer wrote:
having a PR in hand, can i say that i can settle in singapore without any hassles?When you applied for PR, you did find out what the letters stand for didn't you?
Frankly, the Singapore government is regretting giving out PR so easily to people such as yourself previously, so you have no chance of getting citizenship

Well by offering something to your employer that's worth it. What do you have that justifies a higher sum?superProgrammer wrote:Thanks JR8,JR8 wrote:I think your salary would be illegal if paid in Europe: It's that bad.superProgrammer wrote:But Singapore can gain from my skills....

What!!?!? Tens of thousands.. u mean greater than 10K per month?? which job pays in Singapore.. ? Singapore President?nakatago wrote:How so?superProgrammer wrote:But Singapore can gain from my skills....
We have married Europeans with sons earning in the tens of thousands of dollars being denied PR. Now, put yourself in perspective.
You can still apply for citizenship but don't expect it to be successful. You asked for our advice. Don't be angry if we gave you some that you don't like.

I like your 'I can do that' attitude. That is a valuable thing.

May be "Bad" managers.. But I can be a good manager.beppi wrote:Hahaha, this is the quote of the month:superProgrammer wrote:i can be manager also, if given 1 week training.
Manager in a week!!!
This course will revolutionize the MBA industry!
(And I wonder why there are still so many bad managers around - don't they have a week to up their skills?!?)
See.. its very simple- dedicate urself to work, motivate your team, upgrade the skills. What more do u need to be a manager...?

Re: Want more advice on Citizenship in Singapore
Clearly, you don't know Singapore enough like you think you do. Why don't you try reading most of the threads here before making your next post. Also, try learning more about other jobs and other people that are vastly different from those that you know.superProgrammer wrote:Hello everybody..
recently I got to know from my friends that we can convert to Singaporean Citizen if we are here for 3 or more years as PR.
I am a graduate from a reputed govt poly in Singapore.
I have a good pay also. (Around 1.8K per month) got PR as soon as I graduated from Poly 4 yrs back.![]()
what i want to know is, being from a good family in India (My Father is a Central government officer). Will letter from a central government in India help in my citizenship application?
Educate yourself.

Re: Want more advice on Citizenship in Singapore
How dare you sir! I am from a TOP REPUTABLE University with masters, my education is better than everyone here and my father is an Indian local government pen-pusher to boot, they should be begging me to be a citizennakatago wrote:Clearly, you don't know Singapore enough like you think you do.
