Singapore Kongsi (Australia)'s Facebook Community Page

Ladies and gentlemen, presenting to you the community facebook page of our group. The page was set up to share information and latest news regarding migration, work, study and living in Australia. Why do we need a Page when we already have so many groups? Pages are for businesses, organizations and brands to share their stories and connect with people. People who like the Page will get updates in their news feeds.

How are Pages different from groups? Which one should I join? Well, you don't have to join a Page, we use it as a webpage for the group to share important information, latest news and updates. Discussion are still encourage in the group instead of the Page. We want to keep a clean and informative platform in the Page to benefit Singaporean looking for serious answer for their enquiries.

Pages allow real organizations, businesses, celebrities and brands to communicate broadly with people who like them. Pages may only be created and managed by official representatives.

Groups provide a closed space for small groups of people to communicate about shared interests. Groups can be created by anyone.

Other differences include:
Pages
Privacy: Page information and posts are public and generally available to everyone on Facebook.
Audience: Anyone can like a Page to become connected with it and get news feed updates. There is no limit to how many people can like a Page.
Communication: Page admins can share posts under the Page’s name. Page posts appear in the news feeds of people who like the Page. Page admins can also create customized apps for their Pages and check Page Insights to track the Page’s growth and activity.

Groups
Privacy: In addition to an open setting, more privacy settings are available for groups. In secret and closed groups, posts are only visible to group members.
Audience: Group members must be approved or added by other members. When a group reaches a certain size, some features are limited. The most useful groups tend to be the ones you create with small groups of people you know.
Communication: In groups, members receive notifications by default when any member posts in the group. Group members can participate in chats, upload photos to shared albums, collaborate on group docs and invite members who are friends to group events.

You can also help to promote the Page by clicking LIKE and sharing it on your personal timeline.
