Format:Paperback
This book is less detailed than some other similar books, but is a sound introduction to living and working in Singapore. The author is a very cosmopolitan woman, who is open about the fact that she loves living in Singapore, but also highlights the problems expats may face when trying to forge a life there.
She is particularly good on the cultural stuff. e.g. what gift to take if invited to dinner by Chinese/ Malay moslem colleagues; issues around having a maid; how to resolve disputes with neighbours (without either side losing face).
This book is also strong on working in Singapore, and the legal side of renting and buying property. I gave it to my son and his partner who recently moved to Singapore and they found it very useful.

I enjoyed this insightful reference book as it was practical. I don't think I will remember all the information, but the main points have already proved useful and given insight into the new context I am going to work in.

This has been an invaluable book of information so far...and we haven't even been over to look at the country or moved there yet. Clear format and unto date information. Will take it with me on my visit soon-brilliant
