You took the Suggestions in Good Spirit, a Good Trait Allow me to congratulate you, for taking my suggestions and criticisms in good spirit. Like how the USA trains her Navy SEALS, your tolerance of and response to my critical suggestions, will put you in a better position to acclimatize...

Re: Try to Improve your written and spoken English The extended daylight hours in the summer do play tricks with the human biological clock. However, the stomach or rather my stomach will provide the signals when it is time to eat, unless I am playing soccer or tennis (but I will get...

Try to Improve your written and spoken English I believe that being polite and civil, with good spoken and written English will help you in the long run. I am sure you are a polite and civil professional in Singapore. As posted by another individual, may I suggest that you consider...

I am one of those who left Singapore for an exchange (or rather employment) programme, shortly after I started working. At that time, I had almost nothing in my CPF account. I have lived outside of SG for more than 25 years. I have continuously applied for Exit Permit, until recently, when...

Keep up the good work, [scroobal].

I have a gut feeling that if you apply to renew your Singapore passport, from a location outside of Singapore, and even if you make a check mark in the [YES] box that you have acquired the citizenship of another country and/or the passport of another country, the Singapore government or an...

Re: Dual Citizenship, Warm or Cold Warm and cold is relative. For me, 25C is hot, but when it is humid, it becomes uncomfortable. If there is such a thing as ideal, it would be a daytime high of 25C, sunny and breezy, less than 50% humidity, overnight low of 15C, during May, June, July and...

does not encourage dual citizenship "does not encourage dual citizenship" and "may" not "shall" There lies the ambiguity which indicates that dual citizenship is not illegal, but I believe that as long as an individual is not a threat to the State (and I assume to the PAP and the govt.), the...

Re: Dual Citizenship Hello Brother [sctoobal], Pardon me for digressing from the seriousness of this thread. As it is getting more serious and factual, I thought it may need a lighter digression. From The Globe and Mail's Canada Day Edition, July 01, 2009. Who is a Canadian? Look...

Please advise us of the official response to your situation. Thank you.

Re: Dual Citizenship It was several years ago when the Honourable Mr. Goh used the words quitters. Thereafter, I wrote to his office to consider allowing dual citizenship. I did not receive any response. Prior to that when the Honourable Mr. Lee was PM, I wrote to his office regarding...

Thank you [SamLeong]. Although I am not as familiar with SG legislation, especially its Constitution, it looks like LeongSam's position is similar to [scroobal]. I agree that the SG legislation as it exists, does not make it an offence for an individual to be a dual citizen. In addition...

Re: Banking Pardon for digressing from the main topic of dual citizenship. In the past, I have heard of the so called "exclusive banking" clause. However, in the insolvency community or rather in past years' seminars, we have discussed about "setting up a war chest", that is to deposit...

Re: Dual Citizenship, and the Global Trend I am glad to read your post, and you proved me right that you can write better to try to explain to those individuals whose perspective appears to be narrower than beneficial for them. Specifically, I agree with you regarding businessmen dealing...

Re: Recent Immigrants to Canada compared to the old days Allow me to add to [scroobal]'s suggestions. (I) Whatever you do, apply as soon as possible. I recall a young SG medical doctor with a spouse and two very young children. During one of our visits to SG, our family met him for...

Making Others Feel Welcomed (Caring and Compassionate) FOR DISCUSSIONS ONLY AND ENCOURAGEMENT With Brother [scroobal]'s encouragement, and notwithstanding (perhaps, I would say, regardless of the) there is some prejudice and discrimination, I will post the following to encourage potential...

Re: Recent Immigrants to Canada compared to the old days FOR DISCUSSIONS ONLY, and NOT BRAGGING I would be lying if I tell you that there was no prejudice, discrimination or racism (it depends on how you define it, and the extent). When I started work in Toronto in 1981, the firm...

Thank you, I will buy it and read it.
