i was in journalism.
The jobless malaysians/singaporeans, they were in finance, accounting, IT... all professionals.

still in our late twenties so looking forward to try out other cities before really settling down in a country.
australia may still be the choice but may be not.
will consider to go back to KL if we're rich* enough.
*rich - can afford to buy a good location landed house (now have a condo) and two quality cars, and able to travel to overseas at least once a year + plus enough savings for the future children's education fees.
 
in terms of safety, affordablitiy etc, australia is definitely a good place to stay.
if you don't mind to just work 9 to 5, and being that minority in the company where nobody really listens to you.
angmohs talk a lot and do little.

* this opinion is based on my personal life in perth. heard life in melbourne and sydney is much different.

hm...
actually i have a relative staying in Melbourne as well...but their story is like this...wife managed to secure a job as an accountant while husband was unemployed for months (almost over a year), he was a head chef here in KL at one of the 5 star hotels...but because his wife wanted to migrate to Australia, he had to resign from his job and went off Australia instead....now he is starting his own mini company selling tarts n desserts for parties and events.


meanwhile, me n my gf thinking of going there to work too after we get married...but at the same time we are very afraid...coz of the stories heard, well, are mostly negative stories...it seems many malaysians who went there, ended up unemployed n suffering there....some returned to malaysia, and some unwilling to give up and keep trying...

hence i assumed that the australians are kinda biased towards us asians...not all, but most companies prefer not to hire asians...or am i wrong?
