However, Singapore also presents a good standard of living, exceptional healthcare and education systems, and a safe and clean environment, which many expats believe justifies the cost.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What is the climate like in Singapore?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Singapore has a tropical climate characterized by high humidity and temperatures that typically range between 77 to 95\u00b0F (25 to 35\u00b0C) all year round. The city-state has relatively uniform rainfall, with more precipitation from November to January and lower rainfall from May to July.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How long can I be a permanent resident of Singapore if I do not become a citizen?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pacificprime.com\/blog\/singapore-permanent-residence-pr-schemes.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Permanent residents (PRs)<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> can keep their status without any time constraints, but they must make sure they have a valid <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mfa.gov.sg\/Overseas-Mission\/Chennai\/Consular-Services\/Re-Entry-Permit\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Re-Entry Permit (REP)<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> when not in Singapore.

He writes articles and blog posts, creates infographics and videos, translates between Chinese and English, and more. Skilled at explaining complicated concepts in layman\u2019s terms, Martin believes the gold standard of translation is attained when the translated text is not only accurate, but also reads like an original text. Martin holds a degree in Economics from the University of London, UK. Since joining Pacific Prime, Martin has become even more aware of the gap between the true value of insurance products and most people\u2019s appreciation of it, and developed a passion for demystifying and simplifying matters, so that more people get the protection they need at a cost they can easily afford. In his free time, Martin attends concerts of various genres, and plays the violin with piano accompaniment he pre-recorded himself or played live by his niece.","url":"https:\/\/www.pacificprime.com\/blog\/author\/martin-lee"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pacificprime.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11145","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pacificprime.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pacificprime.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pacificprime.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/63"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pacificprime.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11145"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/www.pacificprime.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11145\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":28198,"href":"https:\/\/www.pacificprime.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11145\/revisions\/28198"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pacificprime.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11146"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pacificprime.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11145"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pacificprime.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11145"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pacificprime.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11145"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
