QUOTE(night_wolf_in @ Sep 5 2014, 05:36 PM) i read the first post. so yeah, still not very clear. Normally you can expect lower XX in SGD if you are earning XX in MYR.lets say i make XX RM when i go there, should i expect XX in SGD or it will be lower/higher than XX here? were XX is the arbitrary numerical value.  But with experience, sometimes you can get dollar to dollar XX value or even some increment sometimes. Case to Case basis. |

QUOTE(night_wolf_in @ Sep 5 2014, 05:55 PM) ah, that makes more sense. how much lower? 20% 40%? First offer i got from X company was 60% cut in XX. now, Y company is talking about 40% cut from my current XX. i feel this is a lot of cut Then it's up to you. If let's say ur salary is 10k getting 40% cut, you earn around 6k sgd. If you are the type to convert, it's still more than your MYR salary and 6k sgd you can live an easy and wonderful life in Singapore (at least for me). If you do not have much commitments, I believe your expenses will be minimum around 1k SGD. Anything more than that, you can save. This is base on my own expenses, I do not go for entertainment much.  Sometime companies in Singapore is trying to exploit foreign employees (especially Malaysian), they know Singapore currency is strong, therefore, they try to 'tekan' you as much as they can. But of course there are some good companies too. In this scenarios try to think what you really want. 1. Work and live in Singapore. (I do not think it's worth it for that salary cut) 2. Work for many many years, then go back Malaysia. (maybe worth it if you can save a lot) Here the expenses is cheaper than Malaysia. (dollar to dollar). Food is cheaper (hawker), no need to pump petrol (public transportation), branded and good stuffs are cheaper. Of course there are things that is more expensive, example the room rent or if you want to buy a car. |
