We are offering you the opportunity to earn a decent side income as a freelance lifestyle writer for our range of digital media websites, most of which are targeted at expat readers.


You'll only be assigned as much work as you can handle, which means that you will be able to write on a completely flexible basis without having to compromise your other commitments.

b) A native English speaker (or have a native level of proficiency in English)


c) Outgoing, inquisitive and be prepared to speak to people in order to research stories


d) Committed to meeting deadlines and to producing high quality editorial copy



Articles will typically be short (500-700 words) and should be targeted at internet readers.


In addition, if you're interested in a more permanent work arrangement, we'd be happy to speak with you.


We will pay you $45 per article and $25 per photo. Once you have had at least 100 articles published (or if you are an experienced writer with at least 2 years of editorial/journalist/copywriting experience), we will pay you $55 per article.

Re: Which international school for Norwegian kids?

While most international schools in Singapore offer a wide range of second languages (typically including French, Mandarin, Spanish, and occasionally German), Norwegian is *rarely* offered as part of the standard curriculum. That said, schools like UWCSEA and OFS are known for having diverse student bodies with strong support for home language programs, some families arrange for external language tutors or join community-based language groups in parallel with school. You might also want to explore schools that are particularly popular with European families. For instance, ISS International School and Dover Court both tend to attract a more mixed European crowd, while St. Joseph’s Institution International has a smaller but warm expat community. It’s worth asking the admissions teams directly about Norwegian families enrolled or if they support self-study or external Norwegian language tutoring. If you or someone is still in the process of comparing schools, doris.school is a free .....

Re: Can expat and local couple apply for International School for child

In Singapore, if the child is a Singapore citizen, even if only one parent is local, they cannot enroll in an international school without MOE approval. This applies regardless of the other parent’s expat status. If the child is not a Singapore citizen (e.g., holds only a foreign passport), then there’s no restriction, and the family can apply freely to international schools. So for your friend, it really depends on the child’s citizenship. If they need help comparing schools that accept expat kids, doris.school is a useful tool that shows fees, curriculum, and admissions policies all in one place.

Re: Singapore Property Market Unsustainable

Gotta make a punt on several factors

1. Good jobs?
2. Population growth?
3. Johor - Sg connectivity?

Look at HK with regards to the 3 factors.
Point 3 wud be shenzhen-HK connectivity

Look at NZ with regards to the 2 factors.

Both are suffering declines.

I have no crystal ball. Unfortunately.

Re: PR iPA received and Pre-COF done but haven't received next steps after 10 working days

Hey, I've received my IPA and finished all my pre-COF tasks as well and waiting for the email detailing next steps. Can I check if you heard back from ICA? How long did they take and what were the next steps you had to go through to get your PR?

Re: Assessing my citizenship application chancess

Yea it turned out to be a misunderstanding from their side as they called me later and said it shouldn't be a problem as long as I complete it and reply to an email they'll send that I've done so once I'm finished. Thanks for the help tho maybe someone else can read this and not make the same mistake
