这几年的回答是: 可以, 但是要经过MOE批准, case by case. 出去前要放押金, 或者是找local担保人, 或者干脆花钱把自己买断...

如果跟local结婚泥？可不可以不放钱，或者减少服务期限？

something like 12wS$...about 60w rmb?
got another msg from a friend saying 18w S$(just feel this one is definitely rediculous)

再说了，为了这个就和local结婚么？。。。。

to buy your bond bah...

Then you have two choices:

1. Pay the money to buy your bond and feel free to go anywhere...

2. Put the money as deposit in MOE and collect it back when you come back and serve the bond...

Which one do you choose?

better check with MOE and see what they say...

那请问出去读研以后不想回新加坡工作，不要那50万了，还会追究什么吗？（50万是人民币吗？）

can't afford either way...

。。。当然是嫁鸡随鸡了。如果另一半想去其他国家的话，很自然的要考虑这个问题了。。

长远看来，bond 真是麻烦。以后签合同时要三思而行。

的确要三思而后行, 人家给你提供机会和好处, 难道不要求回报才是应该的吗?

if you cannot afford it, try not to do it.

Or there are other options:

1. Borrow from someone or loan from some sources to pay it first. Then pay the debt in the future. I know several cases in which people do this.

2. If you are really good enough, some company will pay it for you, which means they think you worth it...
