Singapore Expats

Hello all,

I am thinking of relocating to Singapore in Jan 09. I have a job offer of S$ 3.600 base salary plus commission so it can be as much as S$ 6.700/month.
My questions are:
1. Would that be enough for me to look after my wife and daughter well? (good 2 bedroom apartment, food, transport, leisure activities and so on)
2. Could I be able to pay for an International School for my daughter age of 10? - I saw that some school there will cost nearly S$ 20.000 a year

Any advice will be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Alex

With regard to school tuition, expect to pay at least $20,000 to $29,000 per year. And be very careful in selecting a school. I know some folks that thought they had the right school for their son, only to be very unhappy shortly after he entered school.

sadly... no.
i have friends from International Schools and their parents are earning at least $10,000/month

spore is a hectic country...high maintainance too...
if ur salary is low, it wouldnt be enough to sustain your life and
daily expenses here...
transport, dining all counts...

thank you all for your replies

way too low, dont even bother considering it.
Singapore isnt a cheap place to live in - particularly education and rent.

to be honest, living in a decent flat would probably cost you 3-4k alone
