October 28th, 2009

Singapore Edges Malaysia at Ease of Starting a Business

October 24th, 2009

A recent analysis of company incorporation requirements uncovers the easier entry requirements and key economic benefits that foreign entrepreneurs can gain by choosing to set up a company in Singapore as compared to Malaysia.

The findings of the report published by GuideMeSingapore.com (http://www.guidemesingapore.com/) highlight the following differences between the two jurisdictions:
-    Singapore ranks #1 in the world for ease of doing business whereas Malaysia ranks #23 in this category
-    There is no authorized capital requirements for incorporating a Singapore company, while in Malaysia you are required to list authorized capital
-    A Singapore company can be registered with a fee of SGD 315 which is lower when compared to the registration fee for a Malaysian company which can range from SGD 400 to SGD 28,000 depending on your company’s authorized capital.
-    Company registration in Singapore can be completed within 1 working day, while it normally takes few days to few weeks to incorporate a company in Malaysia
-    It’s easier for foreign investors to satisfy the eligibility criteria for Singapore work passes as compared to the requirements for a Malaysian work visa
-    Foreign investors are required to apply for foreign investment committee approval when taking more than 30% shareholding in a Malaysian company whereas in Singapore the company can be owned 100% by foreigners without requiring any kind of approvals whatsoever
-    A Singapore company can be registered with a single shareholder and a single director while incorporation of a Malaysian company requires a minimum of two directors and two shareholders
-    Corporate taxes in Singapore are significantly lower than in Malaysia especially for small-to-midsize companies

“Most entrepreneurs interested in establishing start-ups in foreign jurisdictions take into account a number of different factors such as ease and speed of setting up a business, annual compliance requirements, income tax rates, immigration policies, etc before taking a final decision. Singapore ranks very high on all these factors and that’s why increasing number of foreign business professionals are choosing Singapore as their preferred choice for incorporating their business,” said Andrew Chen, Head of Public Relations at GuideMeSingapore.com – the firm that released the analysis report.

The report firmly asserts Singapore’s position as a preferred place to start a business when compared with Malaysia. With affordable company set-up and maintenance costs, low tax regime, friendly immigration policies, and high standards of living, Singapore clearly offers better prospects for foreign entrepreneurs to relocate to the country to start and manage their business.

Indonesia no match for Singapore at ease of starting a business

October 24th, 2009

Singapore ranks #1 in the world for ease of doing business whereas Indonesia ranks #122 in this category according to the recent “Doing Business 2009 Report” published by World Bank. The stark difference between the two neighbors is further confirmed by a recent study that compares company setup requirements between Singapore and Indonesia which reveals that foreign entrepreneurs can set up a company in Singapore with more ease and minimal restrictions as compared to Indonesia.

According to the study, Singapore company incorporation can be completed within 1 working day while it normally takes 4-6 months to incorporate a company Indonesia. The company incorporation procedure in Singapore is streamlined and foreign entrepreneurs can transact online with the Companies Registry. Company formation in Indonesia is a lengthy and complex procedure, necessitating transactions with several government bodies. Furthermore, Singapore does not impose any restrictions on the type of business a foreign entrepreneur can start whereas Indonesia restricts the fields of business that are open to foreign investment.

The study also finds that while a Singapore company can be setup with a share capital of $1 only, Indonesian authorities will only approve a company that is being setup by a foreign business professional if it has a minimum share capital of US$ 100K to $250K. A Singapore company can be registered with a single shareholder while incorporation of an Indonesian company requires a minimum of two shareholders.

Corporate taxes are significantly lower in Singapore as compared to Indonesia. Singapore’s headline corporate tax rate is 17% while the flat tax rate of Indonesia stands at 28%.
According to the World Bank report, World Trade Indicator 2008, while Indonesia has low tariffs to encourage trade, it fails to provide good bureaucratic procedures and law enforcement. The report shows that Indonesia has low import tariffs and good trade facilitation, but still scores poorly in providing the necessary supporting conditions for efficient business.

“Singapore is consistently ranked as the world’s best place to do business and it is easy to see why. Company incorporation is quick and efficient, there are no restrictions on foreigners who want to setup business here, taxes are business friendly and competitive, and immigration policies are progressive. Indonesia performs poorly in such indicators and the 4-6 month timeline for company incorporation, which is often entangled in bureaucracy, is simply unacceptable to foreign investors.

Moreover, the restrictions on foreign ownership, a high share capital requirement and high taxes make Indonesia a difficult place to do business,” said Andrew Chen, a spokesperson from the Singapore based business information portal (http://www.guidemesingapore.com) that released the study’s findings. “The legal culture in Indonesia unfortunately is undermined by corruption which has been rife in public service. Even those businesses seemingly doing the right thing may find themselves sinking in a muddy legal environment.” Mr. Chen added.

To learn more about doing business in Singapore, refer to Singapore Company Setup and Singapore Income Tax guides.

Lights for walls can increase the look and charm of your bedroom

October 20th, 2009

Did you know that you can change the entire look and appeal of your bedroom with the simple introduction of lights for walls? Many people who consider the remodeling or overall appearance of their bedroom immediately believe that they will have to repaint all their walls and add paintings or spend thousands of dollars in order to acquire the look and appeal that they desire. However, a bedroom can instantly be changed and improved with the addition of bedroom lights in the form of lights for walls or recessed ceiling lights.

Lights for walls are a growing trend in the United States. More and more people are taking advantage of lights for walls. They can be purchased in a variety of shapes and sizes. There are lights that appear directly on the walls with visible bulbs, and then there are lights for walls that contain globes or covers that soften the light. Most people choose lights with covers in order to avoid glare and to prevent younger children from burning themselves on the bulbs.

If your bedrooms are small, you should consider the lighting in these rooms.  If the lighting is dim and you don’t have bright overhead lighting, you can add lights for walls and the light will  make the room seen larger. The brighter the lights the larger that the room will appear. This is especially true if you space out the bedroom lights on the wall to where there are only 2 or 3 on each wall. You can also enhance the mood of any bedroom for a pleasurable experience by putting the lights on a dimmer switch.

Lighting can do so much for your bedroom. If you are unsure of where to acquire wall lights for your bedroom you should turn to the resources provided by Ask-the-electrician.com. Ask-the-electrician.com can answer all of your questions and can provide you with information to help you select the most efficient and effective lighting for your bedroom walls.

They will also guide you through the installation process, so you can know your new bedroom lighting is safe as well as adding to the ambience of the room.

Lights for walls can also be  installed in other rooms in your home. These lights are designed to be used in all types of rooms such as: family rooms, kitchens, bathrooms, living rooms, dining rooms, and game rooms to name a few. These lights can provide more light than overhead lights and can  make each room seem much larger. This is excellent for individuals who live in smaller homes or apartments and are looking for creative ways in which to make their homes look larger. That is why wall lights continue to grow in popularity every year.

Lights for walls can improve the way in which rooms in your home look. In fact, bedroom lights
