Hi guys, was wondering if a malaysian who's not working in singapore and with no PR able to open a singapore bank account.

I read online that for POSB its quite straighforward to open an account. Has anyone done it ? Need some advice.

Also is it possible to open a bank account through online, without physically having to go to singapore ?

Thanks !

sales executive job, worth it?

Hi guys, im currently working as a process engineer in a small company. Just today i received a call from United Parcel Service (UPS) to be interviewed for the position of a sales executive. I sort of dont mind getting into sales, but i guess in this case the main attraction here is the big name of UPS.

But im sort of wondering, is this post considered to be some sort of a lowly position? And how much basic would a company like UPS offer for this position?

Thanks guys

Is this normal ?

Is it normal that i go to bed on most nights hoping that i wouldnt wake up in the morning?

I also tend to yearn for life threatening diseases, like cancer, which has the potential to take my life.

Do people actually think this way from time to time?

Hi all, i just recently rejected an offer to join flextronics in JB as an engineer and instead joined another smaller company as an engineer.
This small company is actually based in Singapore & they have just recently set up operation in JB. The reason why i chose to join this company over flextronics is because i'll be coming in as a pioneer & also because i felt that i could learn a lot there.

But recently one of my cousins have been putting me down about me working for this company. This cousin of mine works in flextronics KL and he keeps telling me that no matter how well i do , i still wont be earning much & that by time i reach 40, the maximum I would be earning is around RM5,000. He keeps gloating to me about the fact that he works for a fortune 500 company and is going to make it big & that i wont amount to much with this company.

I was really thrilled about working for this company but his words have sort of gotten to me & im actually feeling down now. Is there any truth to his words?
