So this is the fourth blog site (first being the joys of fatherhood, second the mobile business (mobilitee@blogspot.com), and third, commentary on Malaysian and Singapore politics and society)
Yes. I've moonlighted as a real estate agent in Singapore for more than a year now. Initially it was more for keeping myself busy whilst waiting for an entrepreneurial project to get regulatory approval, but now it is actually paying the bills.
But even today, I feel it hard to admit to anyone that I AM a real estate agent. It's one of those jobs (I wouldn't call it a profession yet, as future posts in this blog will indicate why) where one hesitates to admit to in a party, alongside psychiatrists, accountants and used car salesmen. Mention the word estate agent in this country (Singapore) and images of pushy aunties, young men with slick gelled hair, and dodgy/evasive/non-committal characters come to mind.
But that's where this blog comes in - to explain why real estate agents in Singapore evoke those images. And believe me, the impressions are justified...
