Similar to Igloo0000, I have never worked in Malaysia before and started my career in the States.
From looking through Glassdoor, a similarly titled position in Malaysia for a large US company pays RM20k-RM25k per month. What do you all think? I know it cannot be direct conversion of 1USD=RM4 but my feeling is that RM25k/month in KL is pretty comfortable, especially with a working spouse.

I am very interested since I'm considering transferring to the Malaysia/Singapore office with my company and would like to know the market rate.

Yup, they are growing like crazy in APAC

Don't mean to hijack this forum and start talking about politics in msia... if there is another forum please point me to that and I will take my question there...
Honestly many of my close friends are doing very well in Msia and the political/social issues exaggerated by the media is not impacting their lives so much.. maybe not yet...
My friend who is a Manager in a big US consulting firm in Malaysia is earning rm17k/month... which led me to believe rm20-25k for senior manager in a top firm to be the standard. Yes I agree your friend who is a Director is a little underpaid, but really depends on the company... if it is a smaller company then that may be a reason
