Destination Guide

Singapore is a compact, highly connected island city-state with strong opportunities in hospitality, food and beverage, tourism, retail, technology and finance. Its culture blends Chinese, Malay, Indian and international influences, reflected in festivals, neighborhoods and hawker cuisine. The lifestyle is safe, clean and convenient, with excellent public transport, shopping, parks and a busy dining scene, although housing and daily expenses can be high. Foreign workers normally need an employer-sponsored work pass; eligibility depends on nationality, qualifications, salary and the role, and the employer generally handles the application. Accommodation should be arranged carefully because rents vary significantly by location and room type. New arrivals should budget for transport, deposits, medical cover and living costs, follow local employment regulations, and confirm shift patterns, meals, accommodation and benefits with Shangri-La before relocating.
