how u compare the salary between msia n singapore?
Ex: engineer in msia received around rm4000, how about in sgapore? SGD4k also?

how many % from our salary will be deducted for tax?
For example here in Msia 12% deduct for epf....

Recently ive been approached by a bank in malaysia to move back..really weighing the move

Hypothetical pay figures for illustration :

Annual package in sgd (now): sgd65k (before bonus but its pathetic anyway)

Proposed myr annual package : myr114k (before bonus, expected to be similarly pathetic)

Promotion chances in both sides pretty much non existent, but im a little higher up the pecking order in the malaysia bank.

What would you do?

so many ppl work in banking sector...

Any Engenuer onboard?

Hi my appointment took about 15 mins.

Anyone here studying part-time master course with NUS/NTU?

Can share some experience?

err, like based on what criteria they see for admission.

How difficult to get in that kind of things.

Planning to enrol into NUS/NTU for part-time MSC in E&E engineering.

Meaning to say low GPA lesser chance to get admission?

4-5k SGD is because i am a Malaysian or it is standard Singapore rate? Like this better work in Malaysia - if lucky get into oil and gas can earn the same conversion rate value in Malaysia.
4-5k SGD after tax, feels like quite tight if plan to rent a 2-bedroom flat and bring family there...

Anyone working with LTA here?

wanna do some homework
u worked in LTA before?

may i know how's the market rate for mech engineering jobs in sg? say for degree with few yrs exp. are there reliable sources other than jobsdb and monsters?

Once you in Singapore, forever will be in Singapore.

True story

Me different, 8 years in Singapore, 4 years working, 4 years started up a business in Singapore and counting.

Now most of the time in malaysia while letting my business running in singapore. Tough life.

sgd vs rm, still fetching a good rate 3.11 (money changer). surprisingly now, cny is just two weeks

got example?

i've had it guys making 4k in myr and make between 3.5 to 4.2k sgd
i've had bankers making 3k in myr and make between 3-4k sgd
i've had engineers making 5k in myr and make between 4.5 - 5.5k sgd

and mind u, some made horizontal movement from malaysia to sg

but of course, not everyone get this amount but there are ppl that do

ok here's the scenario. talking about alcohol yea since #alcoholisfriend
