My friend just graduated Event Management at UK looking for job in SG. But he is from China do you think there is high possibility able to get job in SG? He is finding job in Hospitality field like Hotel or sth.

I got a job offer for SGD2500 near Ang Mo Kio. Do you think it's enough for me to save like SGD800 per month? How much tax do Malaysians have to pay?

Engineering. Yeah I know.. But finding a job in the US isnt easy too as a foreigner. Especially when their quota has been filled up this year

You're kidding right?
S$2.5 per month is hardly enough in SG.
Why don't you work in Malaysia first and beef up your salary before comming to SG?
I mean in M'sia presumably you live with your parents and can save loads on food, lodging, toileteries, provision, etc.
Seriously S$2.5k in SG is almost living a spartan lifestyle i.e. no entertainment and eat very, very simple meals.

I mean a room in a HDB is Jurong is already going for S$650-700 (including PUB)
Then there is transportation fees amounting to smtg like S$100 per month depending on where you work
Food is around S$800-1000 (at least for me) and its really not that great, mostly economic rice with the occasional weekend restaurant makan.
And since its bloody boring here with nothing to do, I'm sure you will spend quite a bit on entertianment like drinking, eating, clubbing etc.
At the end of the day are you sure you can save much, mcuh more than you do in Malaysia?
If your answer is more or less the same, then better to be in Malaysia since you can enjoy your time with friend and not worry about having enough money at the end of the month.
It's not a nice feeling staying at home on a fridya/sat night when all your friends are out having a good time
