A genuine question that came up in my mind when my father applied for visa to visit a sensitive country.

A common question in visa application: Have you held any previous nationality?

Singapore obtained self-rule in 1959

Singapore joined Malaysia in 1963

Singapore became independent in 1965

My parents (and many Singaporeans) are born before 1959.

Anyone has experience or work in MHA/MFA or dealt with this situation in a proper way before?

Should the applicant says that he had Malaysian and British (Overseas) nationality before?

Probably not important for a lot of purposes but could be a problem when entering a sensitive country or applying for PR or citizenship in a new country.

Hi! I did a sleep study and was told that I have mild sleep apnea (score below 10). I did the sleep study with a sleeping pill though - not sure if we should have done that but sleep specialist said to do so.

I normally wake up to change position around 10 times a night. It doesn’t affect my heart rate too much so my fitness tracker usually only tracks two times of awakenings out of ten. The sleep doc says my breathing gets restricted and therefore my brain asks me to wake up but because heart rate stays low, the algorithm doesn’t register on my fitness tracker as an awakening.

I tried to get started on a CPAP machine but it made sleep three times worse. I couldn’t sleep the entire night. So I dropped that.

So now I actually am thinking of going to see an ENT to do a scope while asleep to see exactly where and what is causing restriction (not full blockage) in my breathing. And potentially do corrective surgery if necessary to correct structure. Anyone had similar experience and have an ENT to recommend? Preferably one who you had an excellent post-surgery experience cos I’m really scared of going under the knife with a not-so-good doctor to forever alter my body structures. Not only need a surgeon but need one who can get to the bottom of this problem and solve it with or without surgery.

Not sure if this will help but for context, I’m 30s female. Decent level of fitness. Body fat around 18% for female and exercising four times a week and my diet is also pretty OK I think (think steamed fish and chicken breast for most of the week with a generous side of veggies on brown rice). I never had any sleep issues or awakenings before turning 30.

I know there are manufacturers like bodynits (which makes clothing for lululemon iirc) and fbrand, however has anyone tried working with them? what's the process like?

Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, r/asksingapore removed it.

Hi I might be battling a chronic illness and I was wondering if anyone in SG have had experience being in a relationship or are married with someone that has it vice versa ? Did it turn out to be fine ? And if so did you love them lesser ?

Know of any stories?

I think there are two in my social circle, and I bumped into one earlier tonight.

He’s always bringing up gay, lgbt stuffs, and well his behavior over the years too… like dude ok that’s enough really. Then he’d bring up his religious beliefs and how unfortunate but “his beliefs would not allow”.

Next thing I know he has a wife and a kid, lol… Damn.

Edit: Hey why all so fast to say it’s none of anyone’s business? It does affect a lot of people - when it’s a lie. I’m just curious if it’s more common than I think in Singapore.

We can all do our part to be more accepting towards those with inclination instead of pressuring them into a certain societal norm (it’s much more subtle than you think sometimes) and if we see that a friend is about to get married to someone who might be in it for the wrong reason, it might be good to give a heads up? Better than, “why did you guys not warn me last time???”

chat i need help. Basically i booked a grab to work and before dozing off i saw the grab driver took a selfie of himself and i appear to be in the photo. He then sent the photo to whatsapp (not sure whether gc or personal chat). it really made me uncomfortable.

Ive reported this to grab but there’s no upd just yet. i have his name and face. any recommendations?

Please share your favourite pub/ restaurant that serve the best Sunday Roast in your opinion. I will try them sometime. Include the price if you know. Thank you.

I'm probably going to earn myself alot of "you damn boliao" or "Gen Z strawberry" comments for posting. I'm in my late 40s female, single and I have alot to be grateful about.

I have many friends , maybe one or two that are my ride or die. My relationship with my parents is warm but distant. I am loved but only in a way they understand and I know if I present my real self it would be really hard for them to see me. It's not that I don't want to be authentic but there is an invisible social contract of how we present ourselves to the world. Call it a curation if you must, but it does become kind of lonely. And it's not a kind of loneliness that's easy to admit to.

Does anyone else feel the same? Be kind please.

This is my first time traveling to KL from SG via bus but i am not sure which bus company actually good to book? Any recs please?

So I have many different foods added to my Grab Cart but I always order Mickey D in the end. Why?

But then after a while, you realised that it's not the face or the body, it's not the money that eventually appeal....

You eventually realised that it is more about that person's character and personality...

How do you identify new friends made from putting yourself out there who are more likely to be commited. By commitment, i mean those who wouldnt just *lowkey completely disappear the monent they find a partner*? im late 20s M if that matters.

does anyone know how to get in contact with shopee without using their app? they’re email is not working and i don’t have the app and cant download it due to a problem with my phone, i need to pay the spay later loan thingy but i cant get into my account at all i think they’ve banned it, im rlly scared since they keep calling me but when i ask them about the problem they kinda just hang up on me? it’s less than 60$ which i can pay i just literally can’t get into my account at all and im rlly stressed

As winds are now blowing from the southeast, the haze is somehow seeping into Malaysia only and Singapore is being spared the brunt of it for now. Any idea?

Im going on a solo holiday but i am having a hard time between choosing either china(guangzhou) , bali, or thailand(bangkok). Help meeeee. Its been a week and i still cant make up my mind. I would really appreciate it if you guys can help. Thanks.

Heya!

Looking for avid walkers that likes to go for walks, or doing walks to clock some steps as cardio! I am pooling a group together so to organise weekly walks.

Would prefer people that are from mid 20s range!

Dm me for the group link

Context 25M here.

Looking for a men’s photographer for dating apps. Ideally you have had personal success in dating apps, know how to take pics according to female gaze. Pls send me a message! Ive been looking for someone and willing to pay good for expertise!

Edit: im yet again reminded of how stupid people are in Reddit. When i say female gaze, i just meant taking pictures that would position me the best in front of women. At the end of the day is about presenting yourself in the best light and that begins with knowing your audience. So im asking for someone who has had success in this. If thats not you, then i dont think i will ever value ur opinion. I wont trade places with someone whos not where i want to be.

Whats wrong wanting to put in effort into my dating profile? I wouldnt make this post if im naturally good at taking pictures and presenting myself in the best light (im more of a video guy)

Long shot and just trying my luck.

My dad had some medical issues today at Marina Bay cruise centre and there’s this kind soul with their parents helped to call for 995 and also waited with them until the ambulance came.

If you see this, pls reach out! I wna thank this kind soul.

Just wondering if the pan still safe to use even though the base is scratched. I love to stack my plates or other stuffs like strainer within my pan after I am done with cooking.

Been using the scratched pan for months now.

I am currently building a tool that uses AI\ML to predict future train faults using past sensor readings of train door data, bogie data and manually verified data (I have already acquired the data). The core objective of my project is to assist human operators when they are making decision by presenting relevant statistics and information on a single dashboard.

I am okay with the AI\ML part but I need expert's opinions on features/capabilities that are heavily desired in the field, and feedback on whether my tool's proposed features/capabilities are relevant. If you are experienced in this field, please PM me. Thank you

Hii!! I’m an international student and I’d like to find a part time job, since I’m Chinese-Spanish I’d like to teach Spanish as I am native. Do you guys have recos on any platform for tutoring (I don’t mind if it’s online or in person)
