Something to share n discuss.. With brothers here esp many of us are sole earners


Young Singapore mother struggling to make ends meet
quote:

I can said I am lucky to get a left over BTO 4 room flat from HDB 4 years at $200K+, my monthly loan from my CPF is $700+ for 30 years for both me and my husband. Which we just started working then. My salary then was $1.8, my husband was $2.6 and my husband just started working, there isn’t much $$ in our CPF. End up we got to pay some cash for the10% down payment. Where did we get this cash from?? Parents, saving.. than what about renovation? Now, 4 years later, our combine income is still less than $7k. We have a 2 years old daughter, another to be out next month.We don’t dare to own a car, we have to support our elderly, pay our study load, infant care/ child care/ nanny. We don’t have much saving left.

Now a BTO 4 rooms flat is selling for at least $400k and you can only get the flat 3 years later. Family planning will also be delay. alot of my friends are paying like more than $1k or 2k for the HDB load monthly. which their CPF contribution did not even have that amount every month, they have to top up cash for it.
FYI, raising a child now is about 1K per month. all the milk powder, diaper, paying for the caregiver, food, medical (touch wood), etc.

This is reality, I am also trying to accept it. If you can’t accept it, you may want to choose to leave the country.

Seeing my friends stress up on Primary 1 registration.Over registration of Pri 1, having to ballot becos of lots of New citizen joining, taking up the Pri 1 vacancy. Raising up cost, Education cost, competition, etc. All this add up to the consideration of people having children. It’s not easy living in Singapore now

If she did have another I won't let her come back again. If she is seeing another just talking I'm ok not bedding

Let me start from your last sentence first.

I am SO confuse on your statement !

You are already contradicting n confused your ownself ... How can you think properly.

You allowed her to be with someone and you are ok with it ? So strange .. is she not your wife ?

At this stage , when her heart no longer with you, whether she bed or no bed with that someone, its no longer important.

I have a problem with my wife now, i think I don't understand there culture, and I have this peronoid disorder and I distrust her, making now we are like straighter.

But I keep on thinking she is seeing another guy, but she
Told me she don't have? ( does viet lady, married will see another guy?)
She told me marries is base on trust and I keep on thinking she have another guy?

I know she angry with me, don't go out with me and don't hold hand when we go out, she come home late from work

She told me she did not do anything wrong to me and to my sister,

She say she is confuse now, she want to leave me also cannot, want to stay also cannot

Do you guys think she have another guy or I'm just Perniod?

Now we do talk and go out now.is she coming back to me?

Yes .. probably u don't understand the cultures ... And guessed you don't understand woman as well .

I cannot and also not up to me to comment / tells you whether she has someone outside. I also believe no one can tell u.

U r the husband ... It's your job to find out the truth and carry out the proper remedy actions.

If u don't trust her, why marry her at the first place ?

Next , what things did she do to make u think that she is having someone outside ? If nothing than u are just plain paranoid.

Next , also think what have you done to her ?

I can tell you straight forward Now ..if you are so f**king paranoid, the day your wife pregnant will be the day this marriage is going to end ! Coz a person like you will sure thinks that the baby is not yours.

If you can trust people here whom you dun meet before and you don't trust a woman u married and you see her everyday ... Something is real wrong with u !

Go think thru everything, dun just come here and seek advice . And please use your brain before exercising advice from the thread.

That's why I'm on medic for IMH, You saying so truth, I have no prove at all.
I don know why I'm this way, I hope this medic from IMH can help me, I pity her she is with me.


I think is all me? But she alway come back late from work, cause she said she hate coming home
Thanks for ur advice, I hope I will change for the better

i might have used the wrong way to ask, thats why there is a misundertanding. i am not asking for the street name. i am asking if the reason he is at the street is because there is some shops there providing some kind of pleasure services.

Why i am asking that is because when he share his experience with me,

If 4k plus sure can get ltvp+, got formal salary Got cpf got pay tax. Higher chance of getting PR later. Think long not short term gain bro. For me, i never never do that to my precious bx.

Spouse's high salary is not the only citieria for LTSVP+.
Below is extracted from ICA website.
Couples who have at least one child who is a Singapore Citizen from their marriage will be eligible to apply for the LTVP+. For those without an SC child, we will look at other factors such as duration of marriage, and will in general consider more favourably those who have been married for at least three years. Each application will be considered on its own merits. Other factors that we consider include the ability of the sponsor to financially support the family, and good conduct of both the sponsor and the applicant.

Yes good records is very impt n plus yur wife is pregnant so even though its not more than 3 yrs of marriage, still can approve just like yur case. And one key sentence is they evaluate case by case.

Bro i think u make a wrong choice by having a family in spore. Your money will be spent on your family. That what i see in singapore. End of the day u cannot retire. To bad unless u make ton of money.

I share a totally different view from you, after staying in VN for 5 years and 5 years of flying in and out. There's a few areas that you have to consider when you want to raise your family in VN, instead of Singapore. EDUCATION for your kids will be one big problem, unless you want your kids to go to their local schools and learn the communist teachings and speak only tieng viet. Although there are tons of English schools in VN, most students still cannot speak proper english after years of extra english lessons. Go to INTERNATIONAL SCHOOLS? do you have the extra cash for it? If you have, i will rather you stay in Singappore and fly there weekly for business. Next is ENVIRONMENT. The air there is totally polluted in the big cities like HCM and Hanoi. Children there often suffer from respiratory infections. All these are my personal experiences. Unless you are retired and have the cash to stay there by the seaside to enjoy life and need not worry about children.

A lot of Singaporeans with Viet BX always think that VN is a nice place to stay because its CHEAP... A foreigner without money there commands no respect and even the police want to find you trouble. Some think that its simple doing business there, go try first and start talking about it after you earn your first US$100K from the viets.

Houses and cars are also not cheap in VN, relative to Singapore. In Singapore, kids can have cheap and good quality education. Life is competitive in Singapore and it is so all around the world. You should upgrade yourself and pit yourself against the competition instead of trying to run off to another country which you `think you know well' If you go VN to stay for some time and realised that you cannot make it there also and want to come back Singapore, you will be way behind the competition and have to spend even more effort to catch up.

we were young once before ... how we wish we have those seniors to give us valuable advices when we were young :p

"Advice" is a non countable noun; you do not add an "s" to make it plural.

"Advice" is like "Rice". You say... "Please pass me the Rice." You don't say "Please pass me the rices" because "Rice", like "Advice", is a non countable noun.

There are many other examples. To test your knowledge of non countable nouns, go to English Language Quiz - Countable or Non-countable Nouns (I-TESL-J) (http://a4esl.org/q/j/ck/ch-countnouns.html) and take the test.

Their vietnam MNC have thousands of their own local degree holder to choose from,i dont think u stand a chance.Even though u got chance,the salary they paid to u will make your jaws drops:eek:

Do u want to know how much they paid to their local degree holder?After u know,u will surely think twice :D

A lot of singaporean have a mindset that vietnam is cheap but they do not know that salary paid over there is peanuts.Unless u are an expat meaning company send u there or post there then your salary is at least something if u spend there but if u just want to earn a few hundred sing salary and live there comfortabily,then i think u will be disappointed

vietnam is not a bad place to live is just that we born in sg is too comfortable with our law and order,safe and fast system.so when we go to a 3rd world country,we always compare with our little red dote

They grown up in a society whereby they have to find their ways of earning money.Govertment dont take care,just want money.Their system is run in a way whereby everybody just want to get something from each other.

everywhere is the same,our little red dote ppl also but is just that they do it in a 'clever or professional way' unlike them.

Yes they jack up the price when they know u are a foreigner but over here is jack up the price and say cost increase,so they no choice have to up the cup of kopi o to 90 cents from 70 cents.

Govertment say no choice cos everything is they let market force decide,they say everywhere is inflation,so they will ask ntuc not to increase their household brands, is the same except the action is different

So if u really want to retired there,prepare for all the shit and i mean really those unexpected shit that will happen or else better retire here.At least when u call sg police to complain that your neighbour is too noisy and u cant sleep,they will come and not at there,they will scold u :D

True. I send resumes to MNC in VN no ones wants me.. Haha. So better stay spore pay up hdb, rent out n retire in VN.


A personally view to those who is hoping to be based in a particular city.

In most case, u are wasting your time by just sending resumes blindly. Most MNC if want to employ a low skilled to middle class manager, they will employ local. Reasons are simple, cheap and local knowledge. If they want to employ top management or someone with specific skill, then they will get someone outside Vietnam so u need to know where u stand.

My company did try to employ various manager positions in different cities before. Before your resume is forwarded to the person in charge, irrelevant resumes will be deleted by the admin or HR assistance.

For most cases, it is good to work in SG, earn SG dollars and spend in Vietnam.

For those who are purely for fun then once a month or twice, short visit to HCMC or other cities, will be much fun than to base in a particular city. I have based in 3 cities and now going to my 4th city soon. I am bored n tired, I rather travel around regularly.

The BTO at CCK is just opposite my former place at CCK ave 2. That place is former Keat Hong Camp. Large piece of land with many BTO there. Near Sunshine Place where there's a Kopi Tiam, also got some shops and a few kindergartens. Not near to MRT but got shuttle service 300 that is very frequent and reaches CCK MRT station and LOT 1 shopping Mall fast. For those who drive, its near to KJE which links BKE and PIE. Also near Bukit Panjang and also Bukit Timah Road.

5 room resale at CCK Ave 2 is quite low price at around 450K, but still around 100K difference from BTO, so still possible for a profit in 5 years time after MOP.

I know that place cos i from keat hong camp:D

Totally agreed with Bro SV.

For the seek of ur kids better stay singapore till they are independent then retire in VN. I never thot of staying in HCM only for investments. Better stay my wife place Vinh Long or go Can Tho.

VN still very bad place to live, policy not transparent corruption is hardcore. Everytimes i go back have to bring the cung angs there for ca phe and meals, if not they will also come my wife place to eat n drink.
Even with their presences, i still have problem buying house even using my wife name until i give up.

a PR/LTVP still travel using Vietnam passport so still need to apply visa for countries other than those visa exempt...because Vietnam is in Asean then do not need visa to travel around Asean countries fo short visit up to 30 days...you may need to check individual country website for visa requirement for Vnese citizen...:)

Ltvp is just a multiple entry visa for entry into Singapore only ... Not to other country. The gal will still be travelling in her Vietnamese passport which may require certain visa for certain country ...

"Advice" is a non countable noun; you do not add an "s" to make it plural.

"Advice" is like "Rice". You say... "Please pass me the Rice." You don't say "Please pass me the rices" because "Rice", like "Advice", is a non countable noun.

There are many other examples. To test your knowledge of non countable nouns, go to English Language Quiz - Countable or Non-countable Nouns (I-TESL-J) (http://a4esl.org/q/j/ck/ch-countnouns.html) and take the test.

My wife told him no need to wait, take out VISA and sign. They immediately sent me for another scan and went into operation theatre around 2 hours later. My ops cost me around 12k Singapore dollars (if i didn't remember wrongly) , which is much cheaper than Singapore.

800K for injection no subsidy meh? Its about S$50 leh, very low price roi. You got child before in Singapore, you should know how much it cost to have an injection. Last time my twins injection in private clinic in HCMC, its around US$100 for important jabs and around US$60 for not important jabs.

I dun think I paid anything for my 2 gals on their mandatory injections ... U only pay unless u go to private hospital ... Or those optional injection like chicken pox , menningitis and etc .. my 2 gals have all their doses in polyclinic , if pay also pay the registration fees ..

In Vietnam, there are also compulsory injections for baby like in Singapore... I guess a few injection are free but most of it got to pay ... And as age increases, it like paying more and more ... In sg, an optional injection cost about $60 for a chicken pox jap ... But in vn for a compulsory jap , it cost about $50 .. so it not about complaining to pay , I am just interested to know more where is the medical subsidies weare currently discussing about ...

Maybe the rules have changed these few years. When i bought my VN properties last time, i am co-owner but i must still sign in order to sell. To be safe,buying condo will be safer, can put foreigner name. Now condo prices are low, with interest rates falling, property prices are expected to increase again in the near future.

3 years seperation will only be the reason for divorce... end of day, both party must agree to file divorce before court can grant divorce. if one party no agree, also cannot divorce base on 3 years seperation.

i took 4.5 years or so to divorce.

tiger is moving to T2 , not T1. Normally i take tiger as i find the seats more spacious than jetstar and Lion Air. I do ad hoc booking so tickets are mostly more expensive, but compare to SQ, its still cheaper.
