Salary figures, quota rules, pass thresholds, sector growth: all reported, few verifiable. Corestaff&#8217;s editorial rule is that any load-bearing fact must trace to a Singapore government page (MOM, EDB, MAS, MTI, IMDA, BCA, CPF Board) with an inline citation link. Where a claim cannot be sourced to a .gov.sg page, we drop the claim rather than dress it up as an estimate. This is more work; it is also why Corestaff&#8217;s content survives fact-checking by hiring managers, CFOs, and audit teams.
