Ocbc Titanium will be the best choice.
Since petrol, groceries, dining and telco bills will having 5% cashback. You will get Rm35 cashback each month for your expenses breakdown.
Other transaction will get 1% cashback only.

Agree that OCBC is the best since expenses just below the RM1K mark for expenses that can relly earn 5% cash back everyday.

So electrostacko, if your income is close to RM36K/year, try apply the OCBC TMC. But don't be disappointed if your application is rejected as they kind od strict.

The good news is you qualify for Maybankard 2 Cards where you can earn 5X TP everyday and 5% cash back every Saturday and Sunday. So if you can pump at petrol station that accept AMEX (e.g. Shell and Esso) and do your groceries on Saturdays and Sundays, you will be earning more compared to the OCBC TMC.

Will study more and consider between these 2 cards.

Thanks for your feedbacks.
