Do you think it's a wise choice to move?

Let take a look at the big picture of Malaysian general income. The range that you seen here in this forum mostly will be the top 5% earner of this country. Most average income, may not even expose their income because it really makes people laugh.
Be professional doing your job and always looking for better opportunity, do not complain yourself to be underpaid, nothing will work if only complain and being sad.

You guys does inspired lot of people, because we know that there is something really good out there in the market.

If you are not a bread maker for your family, and would love to work in Malaysia. Never ask about how much you gonna get in Malaysia, it will just demoralize you.

Please work somewhere else other than Malaysia when you gratuated from UK, if money is important to you.

the reason im asking is bcoz my parents said my lil bro and sis (currently in primary sch) will hav to rely on me for their studies (degree lv), tat's why im asking. just to get somekind of rough numbers

First of all, your question is NOT silly.

As a fresh graduate, your gross pay in M'sia will not be much: probably around RM2500-3000 (btw, financial controllers are EXPERIENCED position, not for fresh grad.) If your degree is from LSE (is it an external programme?), getting a decent job in the finance sector is not too difficult, subject to the economic/sector situation. First few years, do not expect to earn too much. The JUMP comes after you get a few years (3 to 5) of experience and effective networking. Some guys who are more "gung-ho"and capable can earn more than 10k after that (but that's minority). Generally, more than 5k after 5 years.

Pay in Singapore is definitely MUCH better than M'sia but the competition is stiffer as well. There are plenty of M'sians in Singapore finance sector.

To get an indication of pay:

http://www.kellyservices.com.my/web/my/ser...alaryguide.html

Please bear in mind some of the survey data may be skewed and some are on the high side (Michael Page and Robert Walters are executive "head-hunters"). Generally, the pay in Singapore is much better than M'sia (1S$:2.4 ringgit and much lower personal tax rate). Wondering how come I know? - I have worked more than 15 years in the financial industry in S'pore, Msia and etc...now semi-retired - relatively free enough to offer some help in LYN.

Sorry for being naggy (that's the problem of growing old). Do get experience, LEARN, have a GOOD attitude to work. Find something you really like and $$$ will come along (interest + hard work are impt factors for success).

Since you need to take care of your younger siblings, $$$ is impt but pls do not overlook your long-term development plans and interest as well. Cheers...

All of u are so good, I'm fresh grad, working for 1 yr now, but my paid still below RM2.1K , it's not fair~

How come others have at least 2.5 -3 K ~

you can envy those getting higher pay n you can try to achieve like them, but you cant just compare with them.. just remember:

different position, different pay..
different qualification, different pay..
different experience, different pay..
different job scope, different pay..
different company, different pay..
different industry, different pay..
there are still lot of factors why they earn more n getting higher pay..

I understand the facts, but as a human being~ we just keep asking Y

thanks for ur advice, everything makes some difference~

for school leavers, is it easy to get paid about rm1,200-rm1,500?
