Hi guys,
well what i would recommend will be why not start out on your a flight instructor path and build your way up. From what i know from my colleagues, there are a handful of opportunities in flying schools in SEA. MFA or SFC etc... or even STATA..... 200hrs ATPL frozen self-sponsored shows your passion but you will need a little more in order to go up and compete for a seat in major airlines.
From what i have heard, China is a good and upcoming market but, it is hard to leave an airline once you joined due to their policies.... India on the other hand has a handfull of CPL holders jobless, thus it is not really a good choice from my aspect.
I would suggest that you work your way up since ur not entitle to fly for SQ in its ab intio programme anymore, work your way towards a airline and one day, you will be qualifed to apply back to SQ DEC positions.... Try CX, as i got one friend who got into their cadet pilot scheme and was converted to SO. he is an SFO now with CX.
BTW, Im a singaporean and a self-sponsored one as well.... go all the way and fight for what you need and want!
Cheers.
Hope to see you onboard the national carrier one day!

Airbus_380 is right, work your way up may be the hardest way when compare to airlines ab-initial.
FI jobs in China is going hot at the moment, let me know if you guys are interested. I have good referrals.

Hong Kong PR status is awarded after 7 years of livng in HK. So that's not an option unless you have a close relative. To get a work Visa, you have to be sponsored. An employer can sponsor you, but the moment, you have way under the minimum requirements for Cathay or Dragonair ex-pat contracts. HK Airways and HK Express have lower requirements, but I don't know what they are.

Career Progression Stories...
Hi All,
Just had a read through this thread. I work for SIA Cargo as ground staff in AKL and I am always amazed with the variety of nationalities flying the freighters and wonder how they got there.
I am beginning training towards my CPL in a couple of months and I wondered, does anyone know of a thread anywhere on PPrune where experienced airline Pilots have shared the stories of how they got to where they are now? I.E From their very first job to wherever they may be now?
Thanks in advance

I think there's one in the wannabe's forum. Try a search.
On reflection, the requirement to get a HK ATPL validated from another Aviation Authority's ATPL is 2800hrs. Not sure if this applies to a CPL vlidation. Look on the HK CAD website for requirements.

These airlines train their own cadets and accept them with 200 hours.
Those private ones (fresh grads with 200 hours) will leave behind. In another words, "fly kite" first.
Generally, priority will still be given to the Malaysian Malay Muslims. [read my posting <- left click]

If CX were to accept Second Officer with 200 hrs of fATPL. Then, whole bunch of both English and Mandarin (Cantonese speaking) language proficiency fATPL (Singaporean and Malaysian ) holders will swarm in to take up the offer!
