A discussion on the opportunities and challenges faced by expatriate women working here.
More than 40 expatriate women got the chance to network and share their concerns and experiences about living in Singapore at the SIF Xpats Dialogue on March 26, 2009 entitled “Opportunity and Challenges for Expatriate Women Working in Singapore”.
The animated dialogue included Member of Parliament for Tanjong Pagar GRC, Ms Indranee Rajah, former-President for women’s group Aware, Ms Constance Singam, and Ms Juanita Woodward, President for PrimeTime Business and Women’s Association. At the front of most participants’ minds were understanding employment regulations and increasing employment opportunities here in Singapore to make their stay more rewarding and enjoyable. For newcomer to Singapore, Bintou Ndiaye from France, the dialogue answered a lot of questions she had on employment.
