If I work in Singapore & isn't a permanent resident, can I employ a nanny or housemaid (i.e. foreign domestic worker) without needing to comply to the Singapore Ministry of Manpower's requirements:
http://www.mom.gov.sg/foreign-manpower/ ... orker.aspx
In particular, can I employ a foreign maid below 23 or above 50 who can be a social visit pass renewable every 2 weeks or 30 days by crossing over to Johore Bahru & re-entering Singapore?
Please enlighten me on this matter. Thanks to all!

I'm intrigued, why would you think the rules don't apply to you?
Actually I'm really more interested in knowing what your dodgy scheme is

And to answer the OP, you can employ a maid as long as you have an EP or PEP, if you are not a PR or SC ..
Or did you mean you too will be freelancing in Singapore minus any form of permit ??
