Good day folks,

I am trying to estimate the cost of living for a typical Malaysian in Singapore.

I have factored in all the expenses that I think might incur. Kindly comment if the calculation is accurate.

Ps. I am looking for a comfortable lifestyle - nothing luxurious, just comfortable.



Meals

SGD 6 x 3 (breakfast, lunch, dinner) x 7 (days per week) x 4 (weeks per month) = SGD 504 per month

Lodging

SGD 600 per month

Entertainment

SGD 100 (per week) x 4 (weeks per month) = SGD 400 per month

Traveling expenses

SGD 200 per month

Cost of living i.e. laundry, toiletries etc

SGD 100 per month

Travel back to KL once a month + Expenses in KL

SGD 200 (to and fro) + SGD 100 (equivalent to RM 200 or so)

Mom's allowance + Utility bills at home

SGD 200 per month


The sum of the above is approximately SGD 2304.
