No wonder Malaysia fails! This is definitely NOT the way in most developed country.

To be honest, with high quality publications, one could easily get a position at overseas. The problem is, in Malaysia, they don't even rank the conferences and journals! This is the MAJOR reason why we feel we are NOT appreciated as much as we do at overseas in Malaysia. With the kind of mentality that you have just depicted, you have really added salt to injury.

Of course few people here appreciate quality, we're a long way from being a developed country. Your ranting on the internet about captain obvious things will not change them. That said, it's a free market. You are not being forced to work in Malaysia. If you believe you are better off elsewhere, you should do that. If you think you can do something about the problem, then do something about it.

We haven't seen any of your work so we can't tell how good you really are, despite your many claims. That doesn't help your case at all.

I have to agree with kotmj here.

It's almost starting to sound like you're hoping that someone in this forum to PM you with an offer of RM6k to RM7k biggrin.gif

I find it odd that someone as "exposed" as you would have culture shock working here. I studied overseas as well, top 5 uni in the world for my field. I'm doing well. Sure i don't have a phd and i haven't published any fancy papers (i have reasons for that biggrin.gif). But those who are exposed to me will instantly recognize me as outstanding. It's me, not my papers. I want change too. So i will make that change. Humans cannot stop me, and they know it.

For someone who sounds as internally focused as you are, you're so dependent on action and recognition from others. I find that slightly amusing.

What do you expect from me? I'm just a small fry. In Malaysia, most people looks at your qualification and experience (aka age/seniority) before they listen to you!

I think we would be wise to expect nothing from you, from what I have seen smile.gif

Anywhere you go, people will look at your qualification and experience first, because what you "have done" is a simple, objective measure of what you "can potentially do". If you learn computer architecture, this is the basis of branch prediction. Past behavior is a good indication of future behavior smile.gif
