Oh no lah, never worked for Maybank before… it’s just that they’re the behemoth local bank, so naturally I use them as a benchmark for what a big corporate employer in Malaysia looks like.

I’ve actually been out of the market for some years, so my numbers may be a bit dated: comp is probably even higher now. What I shared earlier is still ballpark accurate.

Maybe the difference is in how we define levels. To me:

Senior management = C-suite or those reporting directly to the CEO or another very senior exec (CFO, CTO, CIO, etc.). No way these guys are only pulling RM50K a month nowadays.
Mid-level = department heads with real authority, usually reporting to a division head (who’s senior mgmt).
Junior management = a wide range, but these days even a bank branch head often falls into this category.
And of course, salary bands overlap. quite normal.

This is a very large corp in the context of Malaysia. medium ones will be lower remuneration....

On the EPF side, we already have around 90K active millionaire members. That’s over 1% of all active members. I think 1% is already a pretty decent ratio, no? even if 2%, because this is stats, I think the salary band is still consistent.

Early this year figures suggest there are 150k people having 650k-1mil. Above 1 mil is 130k people.

Can LHDN compel forums like Lowyat to disclose user identities, esp those boasting blatant wealth?

Answer is Yes?

They can if they wanted to. Very easily. Just do an audit.
Nowadays with a lot of data and digital trails, it’s easy to deploy AI to crunch the numbers to come up with a list.
LHDN is probably very busy with e-invoicing. Big money there.
