Thanks Mama Violy! =)

Ask ko din pala how to obtain prepaid sim cards? Sa Dubai kasi you have to show a copy of your passport tapos renewable every year.

I am thinking of buying some before we get there para may contact number na kami agad sa SG before we leave the UK.

amnesia,
prepaid sim cards you can purchase it sa mga convenience store like 711. alam ko ipaparehistro mo pa ito sa government din na you own this number.

[yang]

madali lang naman pagreg. once you purchase, make sure to bring your passport.  then i-register karin ng retailer (7-11) right there and then, so long as dala mo passport mo, and sometimes hinihingi ang workpass.

very useful ang sim, basta either starhub or singtel, ok sila.  tapos you can access wifi rin once you have a line - landline, postpaid or kahit prepaid. basta nasa hotspot ka, which is marami sa SG, you initially register, then lagi ka na maka access ng free wifi.

[yapeegurl]

eto ba yung SG wireless sis?

[mami violy]

korek pia yan nga yun

alexme enjoy sa KL-Genting trip nyo, naway, manalo nga kayo sa casino

alexme tanong ko lang kung nasa KL kami paano kami makakapunta sa underwater world. balak ko kasi b-day gift sa nanay ko punta kami KL

thanks in advance

[amnesia]

Thanks guys! Will get a simcard from 711 pagdating agad namin diyan.

I found a book which might be helpful for tourists/peeps relocating to SG. It's very thorough and informative.

Ask ko lang is the Annual Wage Supplement (AWS) or 13th month pay mandatory? Plus company bonus at the end of the year.

[blooming]

12 months lang.

though I heard some companies give out 13 months, optional din ang bonus.

[yapeegurl]

hindi lahat sis meron 13th month pay.. discretion ata ng company.. sa amin 13th month by the end of the year plus another bonus every March.. sa hubby ko naman, til 15th month at the end of the year..

mami viols, yung sg wireless, pwede pa din ba sa prepaid? all along akala ko for line lang kasi... do i have to register from anywhere ba?

[blooming]

^ hi sis, alam ko puede prepaid.

[mami violy]

sis alam ko puede din ang prepaid need nga lang to register

aws or 13th month pay is not mandatory depende sa company swerte kayo kapag hangang 15th month ang bonus ang nakukuha nyo kasi yung iba talagang wala kasi nga di na sya mandatory na gaya ng dati.

[kayesl]

yup, swertihan lang tong bonus. sina hubby supposedly meron din dapat bonus. but since mahina ang kita ng mga bank companies, wala silang bonus. pero ok na din kesa babaan ng pay or hindi ma-renew yung contract.  fortunately na-renew sya so may (at least) isang taon pa kami dito 

[Juricks]

new thread n pala, kaya pala di ko na makita yung dati.. pasali..

[mami violy]

welcome juricks

kaye meaning contractual lang si hubby mo akala ko PR na kayo dito at balak nyo ng magsettle dito

anyway wala naman makakapgsabi kung hangang kailan tayo, so far kasi were comfortable naman at magandang exposure talaga sa mga bata kasi wala ng effort to teach them how to speak english sila na mismo yung matuto sa environment guidance na lang ang ibibigay natin sa mga anak natin

[kayesl]

^
yup. optimum soln talaga sila na naka-assign sa CS.
nag-apply na kami for PR last april pero wala pang feedback. 2months na yon. sana makuha na namin yung result bago kami lumipat...
