Hi Tycoon,

During your school holiday time, you may be allowed to work part-time in Singapore. However, you may need to apply for holiday work pass from Singapore Ministry of Manpower. Check out www.mom.gov.sg for more info. I think they have quite a strict regulations and procedures you need to follow.
