I Am A Filipino, A Graduate Of Veterinary Medicine, I Want To Get An Animal Related Jobs In Singapore, Anyone?
Contrary to what others have said, I know there is a demand for Filipino-trained veterinary staff here. At The Animal Recovery Centre, several of the clerks are from the Philippines. They are, like you, graduates of vet med (UP Diliman, if I remember correctly), but not licensed to practice full medicine here, so they are clinic assistants.
There are many vet clinics here–they even have clinics at the public housing estates. Most people I know who have animals in Singapore are very conscientious about having their pets vaccinated and checked regularly. They also take their pets to the clinic at the first sign of illness.
Persevere! Good luck!

Contact the Singapore Association of Veterinary Medicine (it should be called something like that). You can try googling it for their contact details. Most likely you will need to pass an exam to qualify for practice in Singapore.
