what differentiates a PR from a citizen in terms of benefits
-
can u list for me.
I am in the midst of applying for malaysia PR and like to know the sg story.
I mean, is there any significant and monetary advantage a citizen has over a PR?
How do they compare in terms of :
1. Job Opportunites.
2. Job security.
3. Doing anything in sg.
4. Do they have to serve? Or are only citizens entitled to have such a privilege? Is it fair that only citizens get to enjoy this privilege as in enjoy the chance to serve the nation of your residence?
5. Can they buy a car at same price?
6. Marry a sg'rean ?
7. Is there equal opportinites?
8. Enjoy the infrastructure?
9. Enjoy the scholarships?
10. What is there a citizen can enjoy that they cannot enjoy?
11. They are members of 2 countries. Sg'rean leh?
I like to thank those serving for protecting our safety while the residents sleep in peace. -

2. Same risk especially during recession.
3. No idea.
4. Serve NS is compulsory for second generation PR n faliure to do so will result in their PR being revoked. -
I don't have to pay $10500 as opposed to $500 for lift upgrading.

But by when must the son of a PR decide to drop his PR ? If the father is PR and son born in Sg also a PR, by about 18, he should have decided if he wants to continue to be a PR right or not?Originally posted by will4:1. Equal opportunity

If they really want to be citizen , would not the father have done that long long until cannot long ago?
If the father does not want to be citizen altho easily qualify, why would the son want to be? suggest a reason anyone? If by 18, the son of a PR can decide to drop the PR and after 18 years found an opportunity in his father's country, he would still have the freedom to bypass NS. And if so, does it mean the son of a PR cannot come to sg to work as PR later? Is sg not welcoming of talents? The son of a PR can be a PR by not being a talent but simply by virtue of being born ? How many are these? And enjoy the benefits that sg society has built. Sg so gracious leh.
Thus, I still have much unclarities about PR and the son of a PR.
What is Loyalty and how robust is Sg with Residents so many are PR or new immigrants and this number continues to grow every day as we speak?
What future will sg have? Very bright I expect. That is the least of my expectations. and nothing less. 1 cent money 1 cent worth of goods.
I initiate my backup plan. -
To add,
I have another indian colleague. He is citizen convert.
I ask him where is his wife and son.
He told me they in india.
I asked the why.
He said uneasily that ....ermm...ahh...oh his son cannot get used to school here and now study in india. Can u imagine this!
He is about 50 years old and he told me, if another reason is his son can siam NS. I not clear what he meant by that.
A sg citizen. on paper. His son can siam NS, he said. That is what I encountered. Real solid example. -
Given that sg welcome PR so many and more to come, I take it that PR is good thing.
Thus, I urge that Malaysia and Sg practise easy PR membership scheme.
Malaysians already have super access and easy can get PR and even citizen in SG. I hope the malaysia can do the same for sg'reans. Since PR is welcomed must be good thing. Why should malaysia not practise the same?
If being PR criteria is to stay there for 2 years , I think Malaysia is the easiest and best choice to realise my backup plan. Can zip between sg and JB for 2 years and then get PR and then enjoy best of both worlds. Backup plan ready.
I hope the criteria to be Malaysia PR can be made easy like no need stay there. Just have to visit there for vacation every 6 months or so. Like this, even ask me pay 1000 for that PR, I will do so willingly since I can realise my backup plan. I dunno what is the criteria for being malaysia PR.
Like this, anytime I not so the sing song, I can drop either 1. So song!
Anyone here a Malaysian PR and Sg citizen???? How many do you think there are? Estimate estimate leh. say 10,000 sg citizens have malaysia PR? I ever heard a malay comrade say he wants to be PR in Malaysia. He said easier than for other race? Is that true? -
wrong post.. dunno anything much bout malaysia PR status and benefitd..
-
why don't you high class a bit?
be australian PR... backup plan more powerful mah!!!
don't want to do, don't do...
want to do, do a shiok shiok one!!!! -

generation PR n therefore might not required to serve NS. Another benefit
for local is workfare bonus which can be given to local only n not applicable to PR. Another benefit is the CPF contribution by govt for PR is the same for local. -
what is the criteria for workfare? Is it applicable for any degree holder out of job? I dun think so right? Is the min salary very high to qualify for the fare?Originally posted by will4:Ur Indian clleuage's son even if he become PR, he is still considered as first

To qualify for workfare required of six months of working n if not wrong targetted at those local low income earners only.Originally posted by reddressman:what is the criteria for workfare?

Family income, if I remember correctly.Originally posted by will4:To qualify for workfare required of six months of working n if not wrong targetted at those local low income earners only.
Its based on family income not individual income, i suspect.
If a degree holder out of job, and is single and lives with family with a brother earning 5k / mth, I think even if he jobless = zero salary , he does not qualify for workfare right?
pls someone conform.
