@Nakiwala Madinah,

To be sincere with you, you cannot get a work permit in Singapiore, the country is a highly skilled country that only need workers with special skills.

They only give work permit to Asians and not Africans.

For Malaysia, you can try to look for jobs but ensure the company can sponsor your work visa and not throw you under the bus.

Am Nigerian and I have been working i a Multinational company in Malaysia for over 13years, I got my job by going for interviews and showing that what I can do.

As Topetolu wrote above, Work Permit (WP), which is a work visa for lowly skilled labourers, is only available for people from a number of source countries, all of them in Asia.

S-Pass and EP, the work visa types for skilled and highly skilled people, are available for all nationalities, but you need a technical certificate (S-Pass) or university degree (EP) and several years applicable work experience to be eligible.
