I don't know, but thinking about it you probably only get one roll of the dice whilst still in SG in such circumstances.
Yah, and not to be too pessimistic, but, recently, a Myanmar guy, studying F&B, post-training, was working OJT, after completion of his course, OJT and all, applied for a work pass under the same place where he did his OJT.
Rejected, appeal, rejected, re-appeal, also rejected.
He took my little advice and decided not to appeal, and applied under another employer, and got it .. though his first employer had all the requirements, plus quota, plus everything in order, and the same employer was able to employ a filipino to replace the Myanmar guy, and that approved so fast. Though, till today, I can't figure out what made the Filipino get his approval, unlike the Myanmar guy.
Well, while some said that myanmar people are being cut down, it doesn't hold water as the said guy was able to get his pass under another employer .. confusing right ???
MOM works in mysterious ways, so .. always tread carefully.
