Hi All, want to ask some questions.

1. If a malaysia work in singapore, does he need to pay income tax in malaysia? how to calculate the amount for salary SGD 2700?

2. SGD 2700.00 is sufficient to stay at singapore and save money? normally how much can be save monthly?

3. My current salary is RM3700.00. Do you think i should take the offer of SGD 2700.00?

Hope to hear opinion. All are welcome. smile.gif

You need to do your own sum cos it very much depends on your lifestyle. Main cost is rental cost...also, will you be travelling back to malaysia often? All these travellings are costs. $2.7K whether it is worth depends on your current academic level and work experience...if you are relatively fresh in the industry, it sounds ok. Sometimes you need to bite the bullet, bear with the "low pay" for a couple of years first, and then look for a better advancement once you have a grasp of the industry that you are working in in singapore.

Just go to Singapore for interview and then back home? If that is the case, $100 sing dollar will be sufficient with a bit of buffer.

Assuming you are not staying overnight in Sg, $100 is more than enough.

Taxi can take you anywhere in Sg but why spend that kind of money? Find out from your prospective employer which is the nearest MRT station and/or which bus service goes to their location. Then take public transport and save your money! The vast majority of Singaporeans take public transport, so you can also ask around for direction/information.

A plate of economy rice or chicken rice will only cost you $3 to $4 in an airconditioned food centre. Tea or coffee is 50 or 60 cents. Just try to get some Singapore coins handy to use on buses. Pay for your food in notes so that you can get some loose change.

$20 should cover your meals and bus fares (providing for taking the wrong bus a few times!), but just bring $100. You can always use the balance for your next trip(s).

All the best!

Best is you try it out yourself.
You would not want to get a wrong estimate and be late on your first day of work right?
