The reason that i stated that is there's no forever job in Australia compared to Malaysia. U may see me good today, maybe 2years later, i'll be retrench and jobless. I found that most people here have the experience of being retrench. It's normal here.
My classmate who's mining engineer here getting AUD150k for 2 years. We're so envy and he bought 2 house (4 x 2 x 2) Last year kena goreng and work in supermarket now. Luckily his wife is working to sustain their expenses. Selling 1 of his house now.
That's y i try to live as normal but has to prepare for the worst as i don't want my children suffers from recession. Aiming to invest some property for recession resistant

Sometimes I wondered Nemesis, is it really worth it? Its an honest question. No disrespect to you. Just wanted to know from you honestly

Like you say, today you might have a job, 2 years later you might be laid-off taking dunno how long to get another job.
If you have a mortgage and family to feed, wouldn't you break into cold sweat? especially if your savings are not alot to begin with.
I think i would have a nervous breakdown.

Previously i don't think you ever worried about getting layed off or eat out everyday for lunch.

I'm not saying migration is bad but is it really that much better over there?

How is it working there so far?

I have a PR fren who work for an aussie builder. But they refuse to give him the job, so he was relegated to doing documentation and photostating. After 2 years, he quit, and went back to malaysia for good.

I hope you don't get the same thing, hope your boss is a kinder person.

Robertchoo my friend, i can say it loud and clear. IT'S WORTH IT!
U can earn big cash or doing big business in Malaysia but u hv to sacrifice ur family time. I past through the process and I sacrificed too much on this.
I'm not worried much on job. U need to plan well financially. Unless u're not planning for future, earn a dollar spend two dollars people.

Living here is much better. I can thinking of doing my personal things like fixing my car, gardening, home improvement bringing my children to jog around after work. This is no way i could do it in Malaysia eversince my job is hooked up with OT. That's y so many family in Malaysia their parents not able be with them all the time.
Children childhood only once of a lifetime. They past through 1st 3-5 years only.

Which option do u want my friend, money or family?

Hi guys,

I am wondering whether how is the Oil and Gas industry in Australia? Is it good? Are there vast vacancies for drilling or completions?
