Shwe@SG

The embassy publishes its renewal lists as photographs. Shwe@SG reads them so you can search for your name, and tells you the day and serial number printed on the list.

Shwe@SG is made for Myanmar people living and working in Singapore.

It tries to answer the questions that are hard to answer in a second language: when is my passport appointment, what am I owed for overtime, who do I call, what is today's rate.

PASSPORT RENEWAL LIST — SEARCHABLE The Myanmar Embassy publishes its renewal lists as photographs, and you cannot search a photograph. Shwe@SG reads the lists and makes the names searchable. • Search by name to find which day you are listed • See the serial number and the day printed on the list • Get an alert when your name appears on a new list — no passport number needed • Time-slot and closure notices when the embassy publishes them • Each list shows its source and when it was last checked

KNOW YOUR WORK RIGHTS — IN BURMESE Explanations of the rules that matter: work permits, changing employer, salary, rest days, injury, and what to do when something goes wrong. Facts carry the date they were last verified, with a link to the official Ministry of Manpower page.

SALARY AND OVERTIME CALCULATOR Work out what you should be paid using MOM's overtime formula, compare it with your payslip, and share the result.

EXCHANGE RATE SGD to MMK, checked several times a day and always shown with the time it was last checked — so you can judge whether the number is still fresh before you send money home.

COMMUNITY HELP Post a request to the community, or answer someone else's. For the problems that need a person rather than a page.

NEW TO SINGAPORE Step-by-step guides for the first weeks: opening a bank account, getting a SIM card, EZ-Link and MRT, emergency numbers — each listing the documents to bring.

MYANMAR SHOPS AND TEMPLES Myanmar grocery shops, restaurants and businesses, and Burmese Buddhist temples across Singapore, with addresses and directions, and opening hours where we have them.

ROOMS AND MARKETPLACE Room listings posted by the community, and a place to buy and sell.

CONNECT A space for adults to meet other Myanmar people in Singapore.

WHY WE SHOW OUR SOURCES Wrong information has real consequences here — a missed appointment, an underpaid month, a wasted trip across the island. So where information comes from an official source, we show which one and when we last checked it, and we say plainly when we are not sure. We would rather tell you we do not know than guess.

Shwe@SG is for adults aged 18 and over.
