wow....

Tapi average salary malaysian more than 3k while thailand less than 2k. So how?

so mau migrate to australia or Thailand?

Got one local Thai food restaurant taukeh partner with a Thai, who is also a programmer.

Even though the local POS software can masuk Thai character but we is having difficulty talking to their staff because they all speak only Thai.

Ended up the programming partner code his own POS software in just few days time.

Ayam is amaze.

Update:
According to the local taukeh partner, his Thai partner pay is already > RM 10k

If your assumption is only based on software engineer's salary, it is a bit premature to declare 'Bangkok salary > KL Salary, Do you feel cukur?? 50% higher!!!' don't you think?

Thai girls also better, sui mak mak

thailand is getting better than malaysia

Compare living cost , Thai is alittle cheaper though

if compare escort in thai earn average 150k bath monthly

this guy just quoted the only metric which is relevant

There fewer programmers than here.. So supply low

Check world economy forum stats... Malaysia top when it comes to availability of talent meanwhile TH lacks talent... Even PH is better than TH in this regard

If malaysia quality good why salary low?


Silicon Valley, high quantity, high quantity, salary also damn high.

in msia skills cannot reward you at fair market rate because cronyism don't reward talents but ____ .

POS system, not so hard to code what...

ya.. but malaysia many foreign it worker here.. with higher salary as well

Cause Malaysian company kedekut. I know cause I am in that line, Fresh grad score 18/20 on a test get 2.8k, senior software engineer do the same test get 12/20 get 6k salary. After 3 months the senior got sacked while the fresh grad workload = the senior workload+ fresh grad workload. It's the truth. No appreciation for talent.

So Bangkok > KL.....

Malaysia low income nation , lose to Bangkok....

While bosses gettin' bigger CC car every year.

Yeap, very true, my ex boss every year change car.
