Starting a business in Singapore

[sling]

I thought that maybe if I couldn't find work I could start a business, but it looks as if that might be even more complicated, as I need an entrepreneurs emplyment pass, as well as a partner in Singapore.

Does anyone know if this would apply to a web based business? If I established a web business ahead of time, and just wanted to work on it while living in Singapore, I would still need to do something about residency, wouldn't I?

YES

May be we can discuss how I can help you. I am Singaporean and do not mind being your freelance consultant and partner, cos I know a lil graphics design, web design and I write in my spare time (aim: to get my article publisher's page in number 1 spot/page in Google search engine results). I achieved it with an article I wrote recently which was a pleasant surprise.

Why don,t you register with a international company that is also there in Singapore,then it will be easier to migrate and do something legitimate there.

You would need to contact both ICA (for immigration/residency/visa purposes, they're immensely strict) as well as Ministry of Manpower, as each visa has it's own regulations in terms of what work one can and cannot do.
