FYI the guy who wrote the book is still in AUSSIE and so is his family. His new book is about success stories in AU LOL ( Draft stage).

But he sure made alot of money from those malaysians who bought his book.

if u got life insurance it is covered doesn't matter where u are

Correct me if I am wrong here about Malaysia Government hospital which costs RM1 to visit a doctor plus medication (if any). Witnessed a patient who paid RM3100.00 to have two valves replaced during an open heart operation recently. Not sure how Australian health care system works on similar scenarios ? Thanks.

yeah so if you those medical or investment linked you can surrender but for life, you can just keep but one day you will also buy life insurance in oz so will you pay both sides ? 

Yeah, wait until u got RM100k income per annum then u won't migrate dy....
u forgot the expenses of GST my friend. 

I went back few weeks ago, walking along the street realised my stomachache and wanna pang sai, rush into the chinese cafe, alahai.....toilet is squatting pan, wet and the worst is no paper !!!! I came out again and saw there's a small plastic box filled with napkins, grab the whole box and rush back for a relieve.....
I forgot that there's no toilet paper provided in malaysia.....sigh...later on that day i bought i big whole pack of small packet tissue in the car

sometimes emergency where got hotel nearby.....?!?unless like the hotel penginapan where bangla and indon like to go...i dun even dare to go in
that's why i always keep toilet roll in the car when i was working in KL long ago but time passed and forgot this event already...i wonder how they use hand....

How about migrating to Australia to work at farms ? Macam kutip apple. All i read here is about professional jobs. Any tips ?

yeah I know. I have few friend living in OZ currently, and when they were studying, they do kutip apple on the weekend or summecr holiday. so I only listen to those who live there so that i can tumpang their house once I decided to go there and kutip apple.

hmm you are right. currently an engineer at a telco company. if compare the salary to those who have been kutiping apple is quite low. why not go kutip apple right ? haha. But somehow it was just a thought on it.

lol why must include kutip apple in the resume ?

No way u can get 189/190 with your current situation. Trust me. Please read the skill assessment 1st. My wife is chartered accountant but she's not using her pro as primary applicants as is much harder. so using mine as primary coz my professional requirement is lower.

Point contribution on experience:-

Aust:-
1 year = 5 points
3 years = 10 points
5 years = 15 points

Overseas:-
3 years = 5 points
5 years = 10 points
8 years = 15 points

My case is i claimed 15 points based on my malaysia working experience which is 9 years.

I'm not trying to pour you cold water but you're unlikely to get any visa approval. My advice is get as many working experience as possible. Don't worry, the point system and requirement always change. Plenty of chance to apply.

u can always said other things such as travelling, dont be so naive and say that i go work oz ma kutip apple coz money heaven. mana boleh. pandai pandai pikir la. if u got good experience the 1 year gap tutup mata sahaja

yeah, why not. If you can get band 8 in all 4 module, congratulations!
we got a  bunch of young grades here sitting IELTS for 5 times almost give up...

You can consider taking PTE test instead. It's easier to score. IELTS is very inconsistent in it's grading system.

Yeah that's what I heard also from my tutor previously. They rotate every week and make one module harder than the rest.

I got the lowest in my reading are, hahaha. Got damn lazy, got to sleepy. Highest was listening. Overall I got an 8.5, sat for it once Then again, I've only spoken English at home and learnt BM when I went to primary school. Can't speak any other language fluently enough. My parents/ grandparents speak English so from a linguistic point it's considered a first language for me.

My speaking was the last, taken in Park Royal hotel after all the other tests.

I got lucky, the examiner asked my favourite topic: Swimming.

What if you are among the lucky one that got offer from Big4 Australia straight as fresh graduate (subclass 457)? Will you go straight to accept the offer? The fact is that Australians themselves are looking out opportunities in Singapore/UK/North America due to the weakening of AUD.

Aus pay is "high", but the disposal income is lower. Life good? That's depends. Speaking from my experience/observation, the effective income tax rate as a senior auditor is approximately 4% in SG, 2% in Malaysia, 16.5% in Japan and 26% in Australia.

Million dollar question is, whether you will be better off in Australia if you are foreigner, single, fresh graduate/minimal experience and no Aus property in hand.

But this is the best time foreigners could get job here because the local Australians are also looking for opportunities elsewhere. Grass (lifestyle) is greener but yes, not always the fact. This morning I met a young man in his late 20's in the station (he's from Singapore). He said he "came to Aus too early". I told him that he can always go back to his own country first. His friends who come over Aus few yrs later than him - able to own a landed property and have a nice MPV. In Aus, we can hardly save enough.

Food for thoughts for whoever plan to come over Aus.
