Wow, fund manager only 6k? Thats rather low.

Project engineer is around 5k++ coming to 6.

5k is not elite. 30K plus a month with allowances and benefits, now thats elite.

Utility room is actually a store room that has been modified to be regarded as a living space fit for a person. Its usually very small, just think of a utlity room as a little bit larger then your average malaysian toilet or student accomodation in setapak.

Here is a sample pic of well ventilated room, this type is not so common and more "atas" then the usual 4 walls you get.

utility bills, of course it gonna be high with aircon.

They usually hike the price if one wants air con. So be prepared to pay higher.

I find starbucks coffee bland and rather tasteless. Would rather french press my own coffee and buy and grind my own coffee beans when i have the time and its way cheaper with way less sugar as well.

The margins are only good for the top management echelon in those businesses. If your a normal engineer then its not as great as freelancing.

Btw, rig building is a better pay-off then ship building.

Are you in the marine industry?

I was but im now attached to a rig drilling contractor, much more lucrative both pay and experience wise. Instead of being the subi working for the main contractor, i am the main contractor and i dont need to listen to the BS most shipyards used to give me. Especially singaporean yards.

Its not super hard to earn that amount. Just need to see what qualifications and experience you have and in what field.

Theres a business analyst here under the age of 30 who earns around amount.

Depends. Different clients pay different amounts and you also have to see if your in a strong position to demand a high amount.

No degree or diploma requirements, but you need to prove that you have worked with weldings for a number of years, either as a Non destructive engineer/inspector or as a certified welder.

Btw, i am cswip 3.1 certified, i wont go near AWS anymore since alot of clients have regarded the AWS cert as trash due to the number of blatant cheating carried out at AWS training centers, especially india.

I am currently undertaking Nebosh international diploma in OHS. Singapore WSQ isnt internationally recognized and i firmly do not trust singapores implmentation of safety standards though their procedures maybe sound.

I find their willingness to adhere to international safety standards are not borne out of the desire to better themselves but to show to clients abroad that their compliant with whatever the client request. This mainly happens in shipyards, jurong island chemical plants have a better safety culture compared to shipyards in general.

You working in singapore as?

You interested in this field? I wouldnt recommend due to personal experience working with the gen y workforce, their rather undisciplined and prefer to work in an air-conditioned environment. I knew a few malaysians and singaporean who worked with me in my previous job and i wouldnt and couldnt get to know them well since they kept on leaving the company after a month or 2 of working in either the shipyard or chemical plant.

Looks like a large majority of people here is in their mid 30's.

Not much in mid 20's eh?

Yes i have come across FMC and their competitors in the field of subsea manifolds and assemblys. I used to do inspections for a competitor of theirs and a large number of employees of this company are ex-fmc staff.

Im doing online from here http://www.sheilds.org/.

The course fees are stated in the website.

Dont think so, porn sites are banned by the MDA which is under the government.

You have to think like a chinaman businessman, you cant earn money from downloadable porn but you certainly can make it by being a pimp.

If that is the case, then why does MDA block those streaming websites since your not downloading the content, only viewing it from that site?

The last time i tried i get starhubs mda message. Must be starhubs policy of being a d***.

At least starhubs service is good during black ops.
