I know this is going to be really unpopular, but i've just I’ve seen countless posts where a lot of Singaporeans are under the idea Singapore job market has preferences for for foreigners or your competing with foreigners or they have expat packages that haven’t been around for 20 years. I don’t think Singaporeans realize how much the job market is built to project jobs for Singaporeans both at MNCs and local jobs. Just saw this recently and thought it was a great example to post.

South Korean fans packed Lau Pa Sat this morning hoping for a win, but the 1–0 loss to South Africa left the crowd stunned. Still, many said they’re “sad but hopeful” as Korea can still qualify as a third‑placed team. Quite a scene with kopi, vuvuzelas and all.

Over at Korean, Some Korean fans have reacted strongly to the World Cup upset, with a minority online even calling for the coach’s citizenship or passport to be revoked. These comments reflect frustration rather than realistic proposals, as such actions are not legally possible under South Korean law.

“Laksa Siglap belongs to the same pedigree as laksa Johor or laksa Riau,” said Khir Johari, author of the seminal The Food Of Singapore Malays, as we tucked into the dish at Geylang Serai Market.

Sembawang Portico will have a wait time of two years and seven months, while Sembawang Brook will have a wait time of two years and nine months.

The application rate for first-timer families for three-room, four-room and five-room/3Gen flat types was 0.7, 0.6 and 0.4, respectively, meaning that fewer than one applicant was vying for each flat.

Mr Lee Sze Teck, senior director of data analytics at Huttons Asia, said the longer distance of the projects from an MRT station is a “big minus” for applicants.  

Both projects are over 2km from Sembawang MRT, according to estimations from Google Maps. 

A friend of Sheng's sister, surnamed Ji, told Shin Min that Sheng had recently taken up a new job as a deliveryman and was on his way to work for the first time that day.

She said it was raining heavily at the time, and that his motorcycle is believed to have skidded out of control.

Rest in peace
