one of my friends just graduated from uni and has a job offer from a govt agency in singapore. she was wondering on how work experience in government agencies is perceived by employers, especially MNC employers in SG.

Being relatively new to SG myself, I was wondering if people here could shed some light on this.
Thanks

Good way to cool demand to ensure that demand is not inflated but rather is genuine and that property purchased is occupied rather than left empty.
