Living in Singapore - An Expat's Guide to Singapore (English Edition) [Kindle-editie] beoordelingen het boek quotes

In “Living in Singapore – an Expat’s Guide to Singapore” James Silver lays out a comprehensive guide for expatriates (and visitors) who want to know how to get around and enjoy their time in Singapore. He begins with tips for pre-arrival planning; he helps expatriates navigate the employment pass process and the government requirements in Singapore, giving helpful warnings for travelers bringing children or pets. He also discusses the reasonable expectations for Singapore’s cost of living and recommends practical ways for expatriates and short-term visitors to save money and find good prices for the more expensive products and services. When moving, expatriates might worry about the moving process, apartment costs, and rental laws in Singapore. Silver gives a straightforward explanation of these processes and gives suggestions for new Singaporeans to avoid illegal brokers and unsavory apartment deals. He discusses practical methods for the acquisition of utilities, transportation, and tax payments. Finally, James Silver provides detailed, well-researched suggestions for travel, recreation, and community in Singapore. From specific gym and grocery recommendations to lists of activity centers for children and adults, Silver keeps readers informed about all the opportunities available in Singapore. Once you’ve moved and settled in with work, turn toward the end of the book for a wealth of resources for entertainment, culture, and food. This book will prove an invaluable resource for expatriates as well as visitors who only visit Singapore for a short time. The extensive table of contents makes it easy for you to find what you need quickly and easily, and Silver’s research and knowledge about all areas of life in Singapore leaves little to be desired. This is a perfect guidebook to put restless expatriates at ease or help expand the horizons of those who have already settled in.
