Andrea, kamu seharusnya cuba diBali dimana penduduk and PT disana International sama seperti di Singapore. Di Singapore sekarang agak sulit buat pendatang asing untuk berkerja disini.

Iya betul Pak Zulkifli saat ini memang saya sedang usaha mencari kerja di Singapore atau Bali, :) tapi kalau boleh pilih saya tetap prefer di Singapore karena soal kemajuan mereka lebih maju daripada di Indonesia sehingga untuk mendapat pengalaman lebih baik. terima kasih atas sarannya, Pak Zulkifli sendiri saat ini di Singapore?

zulkifli mahmood SG

Saya orang singapore tapi saya tinggal diJohor Bahru, Malaysia. Sekarang buat SPASS, permit terbatas sampai banyak pt in Singapore ngak bisa mendapatkan tenaga kerja asing. DiBali, banyak hotel pariwisata kepunyaan orang asing lagi lagi orang australi. Mungkin mas andrea mesti kirim surat dulu kepada pt pt di sini. Mungkin, kalau bisa mas andrea cuba di Malaysia juga….sana mereka juga sangat maju mungkin lebih hebat dari di Singapore.

andreasdmw SG

wah sudah separah itu ya ternyata... iya2 baik pak, terima kasih sekali untuk advicenya nanti saya cb juga di Malaysia, bapak sendiri bekerja di Malaysia? untuk lingkungan bekerja lebih enak di KL atau di Johor ya pak?

zulkifli mahmood SG

saya sekarang berkerja sambilan di singapore saja..yang buat mas andrea cuba diKL karena disana banyak pusat production house dan penerbitan….pasaran mereka pun lebit luas jika dibandingkan dengan pasaran singapore…lebih berpotensi mas..ini saran saya dan kamu ngak kesal nanti..

andreasdmw SG

iya2 baik pak terima kasih sekali atas sarannya, nanti akan saya coba jg di Malaysia

btw film make a difference nya bagus sekali itu pak. :)

zulkifli mahmood SG

terima kasih..itu hanya buat mereka yang ingin berlajar…mas andrea sekarang di singapore atau masih di kota atlas?

zulkifli mahmood SG

oke mas andrea…saya ucapkan success kepada kamu..jaga diri kamu baik2 di negara orang..saya pergi duluan ya…mungul.

andreasdmw SG

Sekarang saya masih di Semarang, mudah2an tahun depan saya sudah bisa bekerja di Singapore atau Malaysia,

baik sama2 pak Zulkifli, terima kasih banyak untuk advice2nya.

You can also try your luck on interviewing renowned company like Lucasfilm Animation Company or Singapore Press Holding. Since you are an degree holder, you can also apply for teaching career in local poly or art school like Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts or DesignSingapore Council.

andreasdmw SG

Hi M thank you for your advice, I will try the Singapore Press Holding because I don't think I will meet the standard in Lucasfilm animation yet :) are you a designer too?

M the name SG

No, I just happen to have friends who are in this field, anyway the only disadvantage I feel about arts and design in Singapore is the potential is limited as Singapore is more focus on financial sector. It is an well-known secret that "creative" people are often treated with disdain because our society view them as a "cost", not an investment. And our government run thing by "meritocratic" system, so any "creative" works will have be "solid with credential" before they can get supoort from the government. That why for those those talent designer if they got opportunity will choose other countries for their career advance.

andreasdmw SG

wow ok, I thought having a job in Singapore is already a huge career advance for me :p, thanks again for the input

Anyway, I didn't make this up, you can check the old news about Apple Steve Wozniak saying where are the great creative people, artist musicians and writers etc in Singapore and he also mention that Apple could not emerge in societies like Singapore
