I'm thinking of taking few month off to travel. Either that or I'll just quit my job. I don't have any commitment, and I have another income for me to get by in case I couldn't find a job(if I quit). This is my bucket list and if I don't do it now I'll definitely regret it in the future.

So far nobody in my company ever took sabbatical leave and its definitely not in company policy. But they do have study and exam leave.
I believe most company in Malaysia don't have sabbatical policy, even MNC.

So do share if you know any company in Malaysia who have sabbatical leave, and I appreciate any tips so I can present my application case better
Anyway I'm the type of staff who never take MC and AL. So there's that.

I think I conveyed my message alright and most people in workforce will understand it.
Unless you want to be politically correct.

To be honest I don't really worried much about job market. I mean in term of income, I'm covered. Just that my current company is awesome, it would be such a bummer if I have to quit.
Anyway, I'm not taking the leave soon. Maybe later next year. I just want to 'plant' the idea early.

Wow! 9month paid leave
Maybe common only for upper echelon? is it common for local bank too? Because I've never met anyone who actually took sabbatical leave, except few lecturer/professor. Maybe because I don't have any banker friend.

Actually that's what I'm aiming. I want to be excused but still have my job when I return.
Applying for sabbatical with paid is far fetched for me I think.

But my boss is Australian, so I'll try my luck.
