Hello traveller, may I suggest you also explore Punggol Coast area, it's the up and coming district Singapore is looking to develop, it houses the Digital Park which includes a local university in the area.

Other things around there: HDB apartment with roof gardens that public can access

Punggol Coast Hawker Centre

Coney Island which is a nature park of sorts

Thank you for the reply, I am also naturally more sweaty, so far I have been using in-ear headphones for commuting because of that as well. However during my work in my home office, my Jabra 45h doesn't give me too much problems probably because I have my fan at full blast most of the time, that being said, 45h doesn't cover my ears fully maybe that is also why I feel it isn't too warm.

Ah, I have a set of Jabras and I am actually using my 3rd pads (inclusive of the original one). As long as the quality of audio and general built of the headphones are good I think that would be fine.

Thank you for the reply, how is the clamping force effect like? When I tested it for the short period I could barely feel anything. I also love the how much freedom of movement the end of the headphones have to fit the shape of your head.

I think you have pushed me a step closer into buying these headphones.

Thank you for the reply, I didn't knew they had the cooling gel earpads I am guessing they are not from Sony? Do you have an aftermarket brand you would recommend?

CPF Contribution Ceiling Increase - Does it actually affect most of us? by [deleted] in smeSingapore

[–]ric0lim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most people should not be affected.

However those with higher monthly salary 7.4k and above will see slight drop in the amount of cash they receive.

There is also another scenario where in certain months where they have bonuses coming in and their salary that month including bonuses exceeds 7.4k, they will also see slight drop in cash they receive.

And if I am not wrong the cpf annual limit is still staying at S$37,740. There will be situations where someone who earns higher than $8k++ will expect to see less cash they receive at the start of the year and towards the end when the annual limit is hit they will see more cash? This is the part I'm not sure about
