Still dumb and dyslexic I see, terrorist lover.

Is it because the Malaysian soldiers keep searching your house looking for remnant bandits and sympathisers that you keep this up?

Just to share,

I have a very good life in Malaysia due to my family business and a bunch of drinking friends. When i came over here to Singapore, nearing 2 months now, is like i start from fresh. All my working Sales experience is irrelevant cause all they ask is what paper you have and i don't know anyone else.

Still i will jump here the moment they offer me and suffer seeing all my savings slashed 2.5 simply because i have a 4 years old kid. In Malaysia, small kids is like iphone, if you steal it u can sell it :/ How on earth can you rest easy fearing you might lose your kid forever when someone just come up to you and grab her? Singapore offer me the natural insurance for this and that itself is priceless.

I am still jobless and not really in a hurry cause i am helping my child adapting here. But my wife has been loving it here and i start to stop comparing and start adapting and i have to say NOT BAD!

true. daily wage worker like me is like that. Got work then good. No work then no choice, find odd jobs. happy if can clock 40hours/week.

I think apply job does not related to the need of any pass, pass is your identity as a staff at the company, if you change job, you change pass too. if you are jobless at the moment, you dont have pass, you get a job then you get a pass.

if it's me, at least RM80k.
That's 20% reduction but i get to be closer to the family.
fair trade off for me.

last day of work liao
time sure flies when u r haaving funz....

but havent found work yet ...
cross fingers and pray hard hard .

Can renew REP by working for few months only?

Its still up to ICA to reject or approve your REP.....u can still apply for REP renewal....i got my renewal REP on the spot...submit online n paid using CC...cause i was working for more than 3 years++ before the time for REP renewal

Generally double to maintain quality of lifestyle.

But if you're earning anything past S$150K per year, a RM300K role in Malaysia will mean a considerable step change... in terms of seniority (highly doubtful whether someone earning S$150K in SG will even qualify for a RM300K role in Malaysia) and in terms of the effort/job description expected of you.

But to be frank, I would go back for a 1:1 role in Malaysia (perhaps even much less if I stay in Ipoh rather than KL) after I have paid off all my loans... and therefore the passive income becomes fully disposable. Actually I might not even work and just retire early.

if luxurious, would have went for condo, wish i cannot afford
obviously i m still strugling like most of u guys

same thinking, it be more work and responsbility for the same pay back in KL

got offer a month back, 30% slash and a more snr position
could have leverage on the seniority in KL and get another one in sg within a year "a gamble"
aiseh just too old for this kind of game

i got mistaken as singaporean at sim lim when i wanted to buy parts for my diy comp after <3months here.
they can identify us...once we speak our dialects.

u r getting 120k a year now rite?
can't you get the same in Malaysia?

i know depending on industry it could be possible

my previous company paid a senior manager 60k/month. expat rate.

but if the company can afford that, i'm sure local with equivalent experience can demand at least half of it.

Depends on which location too I guess. I can't get my current pay in 1:1 ratio in my hometown. In KL still possible or with a higher ratio. When deciding to work here or MY, family become the main factor for MY. If any other place other than my hometown, I would rather stay here and fly back more often during the weekends.

My bro and sis-in-law are self employed. My sis is also self employed but never stay here for the 5 years period got her REP rejected then given a 1 year REP with some criteria and later a 5 years REP. To be safe they are coming back to stay for sometime before renewing the REP.

Yes, family factor.
I back KL almost every weekend.. but not by flight, taking bus.. I'm poorFag....

thats u heading back to vote lah ...

Hi guys, just booked my SIA flight for the pooling day on 5 May....

quick guys!
