Most service apartment here are around $5000, if you can find $3500 that's considered CHEAP.

Btw, let me know where it is.

I have not had any bad experience with any taxi driver yet. They have clean cars, good service, never over charge me. They like to ask me where I was from, but I think they are trying to be friendly, nothing personal. Some of them do talk A LOT ( like they haven't talked in the last 10 days), I actu...

I only brought one piece of jacket from the US, now I have to do shopping ( which I don't like) for another piece.

A-ya...(= when local says "sh*t")

I'd say MORE CASH.

A lot of places here don't take credit cards. ( mostly dinning places, some supermarkets etc).

They take NETTS here, I think it requires you to have a bank account here.

Never happened in my life ( no matter where it has been)...

The local said " go buy another one lor." ( like you are from the US, so you shouldn't care about losing a piece of jacket).

Never imagine this kind of answer either...

It has never happened to me in the US. I don't want to make them ( HR, Upper level) feel bad about the theft in the office, that's all...( I was told "face" is important in Asia).

I will a...

My business suit got stolen in the office in Singapore , should I keep it to myself?

Or let someone in the office know?

I am foreign and new to the office, my boss is a VP, so whom should I report to about the theft?
what do they normally do after I report the case?

Please advice.

Haha, today someone asked me whether I am getting paid by the US or here?

Have a good weekend!

I would like to see your experience and insights on Real Estate Investment in Singapore.

Thanks

Sentosa is very artificial, I am not sure if you would like it there aster being there couple times.

Yes, I agree with the comments you two have made! My office has 3 floors, over 150 people I'd say. I tried to smile, do small talk and offer snacks etc. Nothing has worked yet. At lunch, I tried to sit with different groups ( all locals), no one would talk to me either. I introduced myself to some p...
