I'm looking at the australian government website for superannuation(cpf) and planning out my salary package.

I think its quite similar to the contribution singapore that the singapore government has and i think its a good way to not only save money, but to generate some extra cash.

Australian Government puts in an extra $1.50 for every $1 extra you put into your superannuation. Thats alot of free money. But it is capped at $1500. And for every $1 in salary you make above $28,980, they contibute $0.05 less.

So lets say Mr Chia Tian Li Makes $40k a year (ya i know quite little), the government will contribute a maximum of $949 extra a year into his superannuation if he contributed $632.

So every year thathe works until his pay hits $58,980, he can receive extra contribution from the government. Pay $632 a year for $949 extra a year, where else on earth do you get such a deal!

The guy pointed to a crane in the opposite building during the interview and asked me how to dismantle it, anyone got any idea? i said remove the base step by step. sigh, stress!!

Just finished my interview!
I think it went pretty good!
From over 200 people cut to 24 people, then cut to 11 people, then cut to 6 people, then choosing only 4!

I skipped the first 2 rounds of interview by some odd chance, they just called me up to the office.
Now i'm just waiting for the offical "YES YOU GOT THE JOB".
Interview was pretty strange, went for an hour, he asked me where i was from, where my parents were from, why never do army, why never stay in malaysia. Ask me to imagine i'm miss world, other than world peace and $$ what else i want.

Funny

A NEW global cancer report has warned against eating classic Aussie fry-ups, including sausages and bacon, because of their links to cancer.

The report urges people to avoid processed meats completely.

Salami, ham, bacon, corned beef and sausages all come under fire in the largest study yet into the links between lifestyle and disease.

Obesity topped the list as a high cancer risk, being linked to six cancers: oesophagus, pancreas, bowel, breast cancer, endometrium and kidney cancer.

Alcohol was also a threat, linked to mouth, oesophagus and breast cancer, and surprisingly red and processed meats were shown to have a "convincing increased risk" of colorectal (bowel) cancer.

The project reviewed 7000 studies carried out over 40 years and provided consumers with a list of recommendations.

They were:

PEOPLE were advised to stay trim.

LIMIT your red meat intake to less than 500g a week.

AVOID processed meats.

AVOID sugary drinks.

DRINK alcohol in moderation.

DO at least 30 minutes of exercise every day.
