Response

As far as international business I'm not referring to just banking. Several large mfg's/businesses have re...

Overpaid trash

Such an ignorant statement this is. Singapore's economy is largely based on international banking/business. My company (from US) has its regional headquarters here. Without the regional HQ here there would be easily 600+ Singaporeans looking for work elsewhere. Not to mention 600+ singaporeans we ha...

Probably people 200 years ago though there was no way someone would actually walk on the moon or humans could actually figure out how to swap someone's heart with another. POOLECJ You are doing the typical religious smoke screen, fudging facts and myths in an attempt to cover your tracks. You are no...

I am not going to attempt to step in God's shoes and judge others and determine who will and who will not serve eternity in fiery damnation. all I know is my path to eternal life is through him believe others is as well. Helping others in distress with expectation of "complete" appreciation is a pri...

Religion

I have also struggled with much of what ive read in this thread up. However, I just want to offer two things to consider. First, religion is a set of beliefs practiced by a group of followers. over the years the word religion has been misinterpreted as the definition of human activities within a chu...

American Football on TV in Sing?

Hello, I am moving to Singapore in October from US. I realize American football is probably not a hot thing in Singapore. Does anyone know if there is any satellite/cable packages in Singapore to get taped delayed games?

Thanks,

Approached with move to Singapore

Hello, I need some advice from expats who move to Singapore. My company wants me to think about an open position which is a good career move. I've lived in several places in the States but never a change such as this (distance, culture). What advice can you give me on life in Singapore. I'm a 37 yea...
