Your age and qualifications are not what Singapore wants, frankly. Your skills, moreover, are a dime a dozen among the locals (who of course have local experience). It's trying to abruptly reduce the number of foreign workers here and you can just guess which demographic it wants before decimating foreigners. It's not that it would be bad for you, it would be bad for majority of foreigners right now.Clandestina wrote:But are you recommending me not to go to Singapore?.... Would that be so bad for me?...
I think the issue is that Singapore does not have an open-door policy for jobs, so you've set yourself up for a large challenge before taking the first step. In general terms you either have to bring a skillset to SG that is not readily available from a local. Either that or there is an avenue for entrepreneurs but you need a convincing business plan and significant pre-existing wealth. I'd guess that 99% of expats go via the employment route. I think the way to consider it is that you need to have a 'Unique Selling Point' that will benefit Singapore.Clandestina wrote:But are you recommending me not to go to Singapore?....

If she was a professionally qualified chiropodist one imagines that she might have mentioned it too.
