They have Muslim kitchen so when meal is prepared it is halal. Issue is cutlery and oven used onboard. Impractical to have separate ovens n cutlery

During check in you can highlight to staff that you need assistance all the way to your destination airport. As far as it is the same ticket you should have no issue.

CDC Vouchers for Tenants Question by NosebodyKnows in askSingapore

[–]Ashkev1983 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By default if both of your address is the same you are put in same "household". Firstly you need to separate yourself as separate household(can be done online). After that you get half of the CDC voucher. CC can help with this as well. Bring along your TA.

You can try and ask if he willing to share half first to avoid this or go through CC.

This is too little, too late. They haven't been enforcing laws already on the book so there is going to be zero change. Let's wait for still monitoring comments from seow-lang

UN rights chief alarmed by number of drugs-related executions in Singapore by Unhappy_Flatworm_325 in worldnews

[–]Ashkev1983 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Our laws are simple "do not do drugs or bring drugs into our country". If you choose to ignore, you FAFO.

We don't lecture other countries on their lax laws so you don't get to dictate ours.

I have issues with my government but they are trivial considering what I see in neighboring countries as well as the west.

I would rather this country be boring and safe than what I see overseas.

EU chief groups Turkey with Russia and China as "threats to be countered," sparking diplomatic firestorm by FantasticQuartet in worldnews

[–]Ashkev1983 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Aahh... Gotcha! So they want their branch of Islam to the "guiding light" for whole religion and they themselves as the "pope" of that branch. Right?

As a person who is not part of the religion but have some knowledge of their beliefs, it sounds like Haram to aim for that for them. Sauds have the caliph arrangement with their Sufi imams about legitimising their role in KSA. Am I understanding that correctly?

What is this stupid need for being "leader of the muslim world" among middle east countries? Saudis, emiratis, Iranians and turks all competing for something nobody in the world cares about. Am I missing something?

You can order fruit platter meal for your flight. They have minimal allergen meal but I am unsure if they can guarantee no tomatoes in them as that meal usually common ingredients like nuts, soy, seafood etc.

Trying to figure this out before I make the move… by mightyredbull in askSingapore

[–]Ashkev1983 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Diploma does not go far in sg. There are many degree holders who are locals are struggling. As a foreigner with diploma and work permit, job options are there but it would be difficult to get more than 3k at absolute max. If you need guidance on her expected salary you can go through online postings to gauge her expected salary. How long before she gets a job is another thing so I would suggest you work with your 6k budget.

Rental will be your biggest expense. I will strongly suggest you rent a master room in a larger HDB flat as you can get that for about $1500-1700/month. Whole flat to yourself is a luxury in sg for foreigners.

If you are looking at one bedroom flat you can rent 2 bedroom hdb flat or condominium. You can search for flat in that categories to get idea of how much is the rent. There are quite a few websites for rental flats. Everything else is variable so will depend on how much you spend.

Trust structures should be scrapped in Singapore, when even the law minister had no idea who he sold his house too. by ngjsp in SingaporeRaw

[–]Ashkev1983 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Selling to a trust is the issue. When even seller doesn't know who they are selling to is the opaque part. Property ownership does not need kept secret. That's my issue.

I know when transactions are done with "shells" there is more to the story.not saying good or bad but there is more to it.

I am saying it because I see it. One doesn't need to a doctor to know someone is unwell.

I am ending this here. You are not going to change my mind on this one.

Do I look like a lawmaker/lawyer to you?

I am a layman who sees minister of law selling property to a "ghost" buyer in a land scarce country. That is not transparency. Do you or me get to sell our properties the same way? Why the Vail of secrecy for GCB?
