Vietnamisation Program

[raiders]

Hi, to those brothers who are based in Vietnam or has been going to Vietnam, could you help with some visa issues?

I know that Singaporeans do not need a visa to enter Vietnam. But,

1. How long does that visa lasts?

2. Can the visa be extended upon expiry while I am in Vietnam

3. Is it very difficult for Singaporeans to land a job while in Vietnam?

4. Is hard to be granted a work permit after finding a job?


I will be following my gf back to Vietnam next month and will be looking for a job there. I am not demanding a Singaporean based salary. I recognised the fact that the Vietnam salary range is very low. I just need a job to sustain my living expenses there. Hope brothers here could help. Thanks in advance.

1. How long does that visa lasts?
The normal Without VISA period is 30 days

2. Can the visa be extended upon expiry while I am in Vietnam
Of course u can apply for extension of VISA after that. But VISA prices are not cheap in Vietnam. 6 months VISA approved and done in HCM City will cost u around US$180 and 1 week of waiting time

3. Is it very difficult for Singaporeans to land a job while in Vietnam?
Why u come Vietnam to find a job? I cannot wonder. Almost all singaporeans here are posted here by their parent companies in Singapore, or else, they are business man.

4. Is hard to be granted a work permit after finding a job?
its easy to be granted a so called `work permit' if u managed to find a job here. But u cannopt speak vietnamese and do not know their culture here, how do u think u can find a job here? Its advisable to do more research before commiting on anything.

The thing is that the salary is so low that i don't think u can sustain yourself. If u think Vietnam is cheap place, u may be wrong. I will advise u to come here a few times first before commiting anything. For a foreigner here, money speaks. Without money, nothing speaks. I do assume that u met your gf in JC, unless your gal continue to work here and support u with some money, or else i don't think u can survive here. Don't be blinded by love.. THINK with your big head, not with your little head.


Have a good weekend

True, finding a job there will defintely get lower pay. Imagine, I know a Uni grad in design working for a famous advertising company Ogvil & Matters, earns abt 600USD or 1KSGD per month.

I know also a uni grad who earns only about USD250 a month. A fresh uni grad earns about USD100 a month.

Normally when i am back in Spore, i will buy the StarHub international calling card. For a card with $15 value, you are paying just $9 for it. When use it to call Ho Chi Minh City, you can call for 25 mins. The quality is good and clear too.

[l16h66g16]

Thanks Bros !

I just bought the starhub calling card and it seem to be the best deal !

Thanks again !
