Most non technical related jobs are most prone to Young Jiuhu onslaught…. Even those coding job can be do by AI

I hate the lies about job-market being strong. This is the worst job market in my lifetime for locals.

THe truths hurt. They massage the figures & statistics to portray a strong job market favourable to locals.

TSMC cuts ties with Singapore firm over chip found in Huawei processor: sources​

The world's most advanced contract chipmaker has severed its ties with a Singapore-based company after a client review exposed a potential breach of US export controls, according to people familiar with the matter.

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) ended its relationship with PowerAIR, a low-key Singaporean firm, following a client check triggered by the discovery of a TSMC chip in a Huawei Technologies artificial intelligence (AI) processor, three sources said.

PowerAIR is the second known company singled out for possible involvement in the Huawei case. TSMC last year suspended shipments to mainland China-based chip designing firm Sophgo after a chip it ordered from the Taiwanese chipmaker was found to match one on Huawei's Ascend 910B multi-chip system, according to a Reuters report in October citing unnamed sources.

New U.S. AI export restrictions will impact global semiconductor markets​

THE Biden administration is preparing to impose a new round of export restrictions on artificial intelligence (AI) chips, said Kenanga.

This specifically targets Nvidia’s GPUs, in a final effort to limit the spread of advanced technology to adversarial nations like China and Russia, according to Bloomberg.

 

[k1976]

These restrictions would introduce a tiered system: Tier 1 countries (including key U.S. allies like Germany, Japan, and Taiwan) would have unrestricted access to American chips; Tier 2 countries would face limits on the total computing chip they can import, though companies in these countries could bypass restrictions by meeting U.S. security and human rights standards (via a Validated End User or VEU designation); Tier 3 countries, including China and those under U.S. arms embargo, would face near-total bans on chip imports.


The new regulations also extend to the export of closed AI model weights (which refer to the calculations to process data to make predictions), further restricting their use in non-allied countries.

While the measures are designed to limit geopolitical rivals’ access to superior AI technologies, industry groups like Nvidia and the Semiconductor Industry Association argue that such a significant policy shift should not be rushed during the presidential transition without more consultation with the tech sector.

 

[k1976]

There are 2 levels of restrictions being company and country level. For Tier 2 countries, we believe that the reported move by US to place a Tier 2 country level restriction of 50,000 chips in 2 years is in indeed a low ceiling for a country.


However, it also means that the big picture idea here would be to induce companies which are the owners of the chips to apply for Validated end-user (VEU) status given that companies can surpass the country quantity restriction level so long as they obtain the VEU status.

We therefore believe that this also means that for companies that own the chips to provide a service such as GPU as a service, or hyperscalers, would be incentivized to qualify as a VEU which also ultiimately means being subject to US security standards.

Since u are a semiconductor expert, what is your view on the micron sinkie expansion and will there be another big layoffs? Needless to say tat Micron sinkie is a paradise for jihukia.

CECA CEO PAYS HIMSELF 30 MILLIONS MORE

my friend's duty free company employer just hired a CECA, whose KPI is to get as many staff to quit on their own (without retrenchment benefits) before the March Bonus.

yes and big local employers collude employee data and rotate staff among themselves to exploit government grants.

They will peg the employment contract till end of employment grant and then exchange staff with their peers to enjoy the same perks again. (re-hiring)

Almost everything got loophole one la. Sinkie jobs are really good for jiuhu Kia or even the whole msian. Come in work hard in MNC with good benefits begin with the lowest rank without servicing NS then chiong 20 years can liao some longer some even shorter because they also can do biz back in msia and can't get caught unlike sinkie will get caught for moonlighting.

MOM's Employment Pass (EP) has no quota cap, and no levy. Rightfully, a company couldn’t hire EPs unless it advertised for Singaporeans and couldn’t get them.

Employer must advertise on the Jobs Bank for at least 14 calendar days before it submits an EP application. This is supposed to ensure that Singaporeans interested in the job are able to have access to the job information. But we all know that this is only for show.

1. The whole thing is a miserable con on Singapore workers—a way to bring in cheap foreigners to undercut wages.

2. In dishonest businesses, you even heard of S Pass and EP holders who are working, seriously u believe their bosses paid them so well (min $3150 and $5000 respectively). The high pays reduce the company's income tax and the boss take a kick-back from the wages.

The law has been turned upside down. Now, unlike every other work visa, the high EP & S-Pass wages are set up to lead directly to permanent residency, and they are not limited to people who are so much better than us. Believe it or not, even cooks, waitresses and cashiers can get them.

Our country let cheaters in the game, and who’s going to check whom they tried to hire? A huge percentage of these applications are filed by middlemen—headhunters - acting as proxies for the towkays. Some HR companies charge a fee for each foreigner you send to an Singapore employer and skim off part of the salary to reimburse the employer for every employment contract period.

So is MOM sleeping?
