Why Do Immigration Authorities Want To Know My Occupation?

Occupations are just trigger words for their immigration to look at....just to cross check your ability to fund your stay in that country if you on a tourist visa for a long visit.

"SALLY SALLY Lom Chiam Pass"



"CHERRY CHERRY Long Jiam Pass"



Many of us know about Long Ya Men (Dragon's Teeth Gate) or Batu Berlayar, which used to stand at the gateway to Keppel Habor (now the present site of Labrador Park) and was mentioned in Wang Dayuan's travel journal.

But do you know that a much larger even more impressive set of granite outcrop existed on the northern coast of the island (near the Causeway) known as the Lom Chiam Pass? The origins of its name is lost to history though it was suggested that the three outcrops were named after a Majapahit envoy of the famed Indonesian empire, though it is likely that the name known to the locals was a bastardization of the envoy's name.

Legend has it that it was the site where Sang Nila Utama saw the lion which gave Singapore's its present name, but his adviser thought that the creature was probably a feral dog. Unable to convince each other of what they saw, they decided to play a game inspired by the hand-like shape of the outcrops to determine who was right. This was also thought to be how the game 'scissors, paper, stone' originated.

It was believed the outcrops's destruction is due to a fit of childish pique by Sir Stanford Raffles. When he visited the northern coast three years after the founding of Singapore, he noticed the locals were busy playing the finger guessing game Sang Nila Utama created and completedly ignore him nor pay respects to the British crown when told to.

In retaliation to this slight on his honor, Raffles had the navy demolish the outcrops by cannon fire , and all mention of them erased from recorded history.

Until now.

Unknown to him, his long suffering potty-cleaner William Farquhar painted a portrait of Lom Chiam Pass in secret and had it kept in his briefcase which was only recently discovered in an abandoned hut in present-day Yishun.

Historians have suggested that perhaps the game Lom Chiam Pass isn't a mere children's pastime previously but a symbol of resistance to colonial power that has passed down through the generations, though its meaning has since been lost.

Singapore's form is the worse. Why do they need to know if you have been to Africa or South America in the last 6 days? What has that got to do with anything. Also asking whether u have entered singapore under a different name before is designed to find out which sinkie emigrated to another country and now coming back with a new passport and possibly name change.
thats for diseases. probably after sars
 
KNN ICA is a lawless place everywhere in this world KNN worst being mudland KNN they can ask anything they like and even pretend to chop your passport with the chopping sound but actually didn't chop it to sabo you and you are responsible to check yourself KNN even you spotted their monkey trick and return to ask them chop they need not apologise KNN it is also a place where customer service is officially not necessary KNN those arseholes are worse than animals KNN

Very true. But then again why sinkies still visit their country? :roflmao:
 
They want this information to identify those people they are lacking in their country. I would be highly sought after there that's why I don't go US
