Aside from yung points dun sa article nung previous posts, nag-PR ako kasi malaking bagay yung subsidy sa medical.
Kung single at healthy ka... at bihirang bihira magkasakit, siguro okay ka pa wag mag-PR. Pero kung may family ka, at regular yung checkup ng mga kids mo... kailangan mo yun. Eventually kung balak mo bumili ng HDB or condo, mas maganda kung PR ka na dati pa para may pondo ang CPF mo. |

tama ka onats... pero that is if willing kang pumila ng one hour minimum sa mga polyclinics! hahahaha.... ako oks lang kasi housewife maraming time to spare... pero there are times na nakakainis dahil sobrang tagal maghintay tapos pagkita mo sa doc eh nagmamadali pa...
so kami nagpupunta lang sa polyclinic for vaccinations ng kids... salamat sa diyos tapos na... all other chk ups sa private clinics kami kasi sagot naman ng company...
as for hospitalization subsidies, nd din kami totally relient on medisave... we took our own private insurance which can accommodate us sa private hospitals or govt hospitals... |

Just think positively, yung CPF could be a forced savings on your part. The good thing is that the employer has a contribution as well. So habang nag-build up yung CPF mo, may corresponding interest dun sao wagi ka talaga. And if ever you decide to settle somewhere else and give up your PRship, makukumo lahat CPF + interest...
Good Luck....  |

dito kasi sa singapore meron silang mga required vaccinations na kelangan ma complete ng mga kids bago sila mag P1... here is the list:
IMMUNISATION REQUIREMENTS
With reference to Singapore's National Childhood Immunisation Schedule, all children should have completed the following immunisations before entry into Primary One:
1. BCG 1 dose (usually given at birth)
2. Diphtheria*, Pertussis &
Tetanus
3 doses (usually given at 3, 4 & 5 months)
+ 1 booster dose (usually given at 18 months)
3. Oral Sabin (immunisation against poliomyelitis)
3 doses (at 3, 4 & 5 months)
+ 1 booster dose (usually given at 18 months)
4. Measles*, mumps, rubella
(MMR) 1 dose (usually given at 1 – 2 years)
5. Hepatitis B 3 doses (usually given at birth, 1 & 5 to 6 months)
(* Immunisation against diphtheria and measles are compulsory by law in Singapore.)
as for the price, nde ko na po matandaan kung magkano basta mura lang pag PR sa polyclinic as long as yung basic vaccinations and not the 5 or 6 in 1 ang kunin mo.... |

ang CPF kasi gradual ang increase ng contribution mo up to 2nd year ng PRship...
eto baka mas madaling intindihin:
http://mycpf.cpf.gov.sg/Members/Gen-Info/Con-Rates/ContriRa.htm
for the first year as PR, 5% pa lang ang contribution mo..
2nd year as PR, 15% na...
after that 20% na... capped at $4,500 max salary base... |
