So this postdoc fellow/researcher/etc. position that some universities offer, how essential it is? In Malaysia, do you think it is a job or simply a training for fresh PhD or both? I believe postdoc has a lower rank and income than those in lectureship?

Let me know your opinion, please. Thank you.

Not sure about Malaysia, but in the uk or most eu countries, post doc is essential for you to apply lectureship. It is treated as a job. But pay is much lower than lecturing

Upon checking several institutions in Malaysia, the pay is indeed lower than lectureship as it does not include allowances. The benefits are lacking either. Not sure it is worthy or not...hmm...
