What does it really feel like to be an Indonesian professional building a life in Singapore?
We sat with Mickey Salim – a Jakarta-born, Hong Kong-raised marketing tech pro who’s now making her mark in Singapore.
From landing a rare internal transfer without a job lined up… to navigating the messy, months-long process of relocating across Asia… Mickey spills the real tea on what it takes to make the move – connections, hustle, and a whole lot of persistence.
She shares:
- The unexpected advantage she had from studying in Hong Kong – and why it made all the difference
- How she negotiated her relocation package & pulled off a bold, self-initiated international transfer against all odds
- A shocking “buyout” clause that let her jump to her new job faster
- Why she says living a decent life in Singapore might actually be cheaper than in Jakarta – yes, really
- Her bold money moves: from frugal beginnings to investing across borders, playing with crypto, and leveraging SRS for tax savings
- And the surprising reason she’s now certain she wants to **settle down in Singapore for good**
Mickey’s also a rising voice in the Indonesian community here – turning her content channel into a platform that’s connecting and empowering fellow expats.
This is a story of strategy, survival, and finding your place. It’s raw, it’s real, and it’s packed with insights for anyone building a life away from home.
Don’t miss it. This one’s for every aspiring expat– and anyone who’s ever wondered what it takes to build a life across borders.
