Since the listed in demand jobs in Singapore are less appealing to certain Singaporeans, this rises opportunities for foreigners to live in Singapore and find a job in these categories. People who are from third world countries would also get even the least paid jobs.
Salaries ranging from SGD 450 to SGD 1,835 may seem low for Singaporeans, but foreign employees consider this enough for them to send money back home to support their families.
