Who told you that you'll earn more overseas? Sure, the exchange rate is high but don't forget, the tax is high too. Assuming you're legally employed there.
Gone are the days where you can just enter a country and work illegally. The authorities are very strict. Once caught, it's the end for you. Also, you won't be really earning big bucks without a work permit.
If working overseas will not earn more than working locally, why in the world would people want to jump???I can pretty damn sure that if you work as the same position in the overseas compare to malaysian you will get a hell lot of salary, just talk at me for example, If I work as a waiter in malaysia top hotel like shangri-la top restaurant lafite the most I will earn is like rm1800 -2000 per month maximum, I know that coz I train in the human resource b4, secondly, I you are no local kl people you will have to pay transport, rent, tax etc etc etc.in the end you onlike got less than 1000 to save
then if you work here (UK) as a waiter, you can atleast earn 200pound MINIMUM PER WEEK, thats equal to rm1300++ per week and rm5000++ per month, and there is alot of employer who offer accomodation and food free.if you are saver type of person you can even spend lesser than you spend in malaysia coz you dont pay anything, yes the authorities are strict but its impossible for them to check from one place to another, theres about 500000 illegal here, from all over the world. you earn big bucks working with no permitt if you lucky to find a good job, than you earn really big bucks with working permitt.
dont forget we are talking about this guy/gal who in desperate of money and low qualification. (NO OFFENCE) thats not my opinion, but my experiance.
