Hey everyone, I just joined the community and wanted to share that I'll be relocating full time to Singapore in February next year. Hope to meet some of you there?

Have a great day 🏄🏼‍♂️

Anyone here know a way for a foreigner without SingPass to get a singaporean number? I've incorporated with Sleek , but they do not provide assistance for getting a local number sadly

Hey, not 100% sure here but I believe you need to get an employment pass. You can't just stay like that in SG long term without justifying with a work activity. Maybe someone else can confirm, or go look online with Perplexity?

Do you mean phone number? I’ve managed to get a phone number in person in SG with just my passport, no SingPass. I think you will have to KYC at the very least.

Interesting, I tried getting the simba esim when i was in Singapore

Anyhow I sorted with callhippo, 30 one off setup and recurring 30 every month for a Singaporean number

Anyone in Singapore atm and want to do something tonight

See if you can still switch over to Simba as it's $10/month for 400 GB and free international roaming. $30/month is way overpriced imo!

Hey nomads, what is the best bus from Singapore to Kuala Lumpur? Thank you 🫶

maciejcupial 15d

I’m staying in the east side, and wonder what’s the best option to get to KL

lorettasees 15d

I’ve heard good things about Aeroline

lorettasees 15d

There are buses that leave from Our Tampines Hub in the east but I don’t think Aeroline is one of them

maciejcupial 15d

I checked them and all morning tickets sold 😔

Anyone tried bus to Johor and train to KL?

maciejcupial 15d

I wonder if Johor is a good place for a few days

lorettasees 15d

Haven’t tried the train myself (it’s super new) but the bus is easy, hoping to try this route soon. Have heard good things about the train

I liked JB, was a lot smaller than KL, still very Malaysian. Rent there was super cheap. Not really any expat vibe there, certainly a bit of a hassle to go to SG over the causeway.

The 1h flight from SG to KL is pretty painless and pretty cheap, I would recommend save your time and spend your money.

lorettasees 15d

This, especially if you’re already in the east!

On a related tangent:

If I worked a normal remote job from Singapore it would be very appealing to switch over to live in JB and visit SG as needed, to save on the cost of living.

But then again, if you want to save on cost of living then KL is as cheap and bigger and better.

If you want to live in SG then just earn a lot more money and get the best of all worlds.
