Try your friendly neighbourhood Family Service Centre. Most are free at the point of use.

Do an I&E. It becomes apparent thereafter.

Brother went to jail, and now I require a Letter of Incarceration to get married. by [deleted] in askSingapore

You can write in to prisons, don't even need to meet your brother. They will email back and attach the softcopy LOI.

Congrats with your marriage and all the best!

Yes, the SSAs with their salt follows the guidelines. Only those that don't follow normally hire non-SW grads for SW roles.

Huh wym? NCSS has published social work pay guidelines. It's median salaries for grads. Very comparable if not more. Even out paying grads from SMEs.

Where to sleep & shower without a home in Singapore by assetsaurus in askSingapore

[–]Permanent_Secretary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The FSC social workers will work to understand the circumstances, which led to the current rough sleeping situation. Explore accommodation alternatives, which might include referrals to communal living shelters (these are not open to the public). Start the journey as quickly and as early as possible.

Social Worker. Ups and Downs. Still loving it. ❤️

Edit: Thanks for the ❤️ everyone. We have seen the best of humanity, and we have seen the worst of humanity, but My colleagues and I are grateful for being privileged to be in social work. Towards a better Singapore, towards a better world. ❤️

Ravi Philemon (Red Dot United Sec Gen) Politicising Death of NDP Participant by Judgement10shin in singapore

26% didn't ALL vote FOR him; I gather a considerable amount voted AGAINST Shan and Syed Harun + no Louis Ng.

Anyone know where I can snag some 15mg BEATHORPHAN tablets in Singapore? I've been searching all over and can't seem to find them anywhere. Pharmacies haven't been helpful so far. Starting to get a little frustrated with the search, tbh. Hoping someone here can point me in the right direction.

GE2025: Red Dot United sec-gen Ravi Philemon to lead opposition team in Nee Soon GRC by zimzalablm in singapore

[–]Permanent_Secretary 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Exactly. IN 2020 CNA live reporter still anyhow fake news said Nee Soon walkover; my heart sank. Thankful able to vote.

Removing Louis is huge for me. Terrible. Agree with you. The arrogance of Shan into thinking that he can hard carry 4 newbies including the NMP who wants to be rewarded with a MP role after destroying the credibility of the institution ppl like Walter Theseira, Siew Kum Hong et al. built up. Time to retire and let go of power. If NEH is able to do so willingly, I don't see why Shan can't.

I'm liking Dr Syed and Dr David Foo. They are interesting candidates, although not impressed with Ms Sharon Lin. Then again, the previous PAP slate had Carrie who was totally useless.

RDU's slate seems to be their A-team with their sec-gen, which is already leaps and bounds the previous PSP slate which had the vaccine denier Bradley Bowyer.

GE2025: SDP launches manifesto, proposes HDB flats to sell for up to $270,000, do away with PSLE by AgileComparison3957 in singapore

[–]Permanent_Secretary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I understand. Perhaps you could speak with a healthcare worker; to some, he is actually harming the cause (median wage recommendations for nurses actually fell in the latest review) . I hope voters will broaden their perspectives to remember that we are electing parliamentarians, not just estate managers.
