What you see is (almost) what you get – so no accommodation and no schooling.

As for Remuneration & Benefits

- Total gross remuneration (before tax) will be in the range of S$150,000 per annum,excluding profit sharing bonus – Given that basic gross is S$7050 x 13 = 91,650, then for the salary to be in the range of S$150,000 pa there would have to be an extra S$58,350 earned pa, which equates to S$5,305 per month (11 months flying 1 month leave). Bit of a trick even for SIA guys on the B744, so it looks like there’s a certain amount of copywriter’s licence here (to say the least!).

- Free and discounted travel on SilkAir services – very limited I’m afraid. Press them for exact details.

- Discounted travel on Singapore Airlines and other airlines – see above.

- Subsidised Medical Insurance Scheme for dependants – minimal medical benefits no dental benefits (I know from long experience). Again ask for precise details.

- Dental & Medical Care – Only for yourself, not for wife and kids.

- Loss of License coverage (applicable to those under 50 years of age). Any benefit should just about pay your tax bill before you’re booted out of Singapore following a licence hiccup.

Approach with extreme caution and skepticism Ivan!
