sis is living in sydney... good pay, 7x her msian pay after converting.. renting a room at a $4mill aud bungalow.. live is great... got car got $$$ got nice house... i will go there every year just to hv holis...
Nobody should be converting salaries. U earn AUD and ure spending in AUD. Period. We're not tourists to be converting currencies. And when we talk about income, we should always refer to TAKE HOME SALARY. Ull see that it surely wont be 7X more or anything close to that unless she was earning about 2K here before she left.

talking bout gross... and she's making a managers salary back in msia... when she moved to aus, she got pushed up 2 bands above her msian paygrade.. lucky her

more than 6 figures aud, in msia not even 6 figures myr p.a.
Managers salary in Malaysia and not even 6 figures p/a??? What kind of manager is that? And now she getting 7 figure salary per annum in AUD? Something is not right with your info.

Well but if I save $1k aud a month, and eventually return to Msia after 12 months, that's $12k aud - which also happens to be about rm36k. In any normal job in Msia (esp entry level in kl) how to save rm36k in a year?? Depends how you look at it really
We're not talking about saving money. We're talking bout salaries. And we're also talking bout those who have migrated there not those who work a few years and then return. So pointless doing a currency conversion.

hisap weed ke.. all managers 6 digit p.a.?

6 digit aud ler... jgn putar

malas mau layan kau la..
I didnt putar anything. You clearly made a mistake. If u wanna tell stories then at least make sure its logical yea.

This is what you said:
'in msia not even 6 figures myr p.a'

Which means that she was earning max RM99,999 per annum or max RM8,333 per month. This clearly means she was a low level manager here in Malaysia.

The you said:
'lucky her more than 6 figures aud'

If more than 6 figures, that means minimum 7 figure AUD salary per annum meaning min she would be getting per month is AUD83,000.

So she jumped from earning RM 8,333 to her current salary of AUD83,000 per month. Does this make sense to you? If u are telling the truth then do provide more details like position, company, location. If not its just empty tin kosong talk.

my fren she dump her msian citizenship to become aussie citizen. Now 15 years there, working at a bank.

she complain that the asian no opportunity for promotion at that bank, only the whites get promotion.

and the whites play politics at the asians..even the asian can perform, only do the routine work.
What position was she holding when she was in Malaysia and what position is she in Australia?

Frankly, i dont know whats so great about a 6 figure salary in Aus. Didnt realise that getting min AUD8,333 (before taxes) was that big a deal for a 'manager'. Ive worked with Australian companies since 2004 and i know some of the manager salaries in Aus. The real mid managers earn >AUD13K.

But in this guy's case, he's probably excited because his sister was just a very low level 'manager' here in Malaysia before she moved. Typical Malaysian corporate style of giving manager posts but pay very low salaries cuz they know Malaysians love titles. I started earning a 5 figure salary here in Malaysia at the age of 28 and i wasnt even a manager and i wasnt bothered in the least. biggrin.gif
