I'm going to start my new job next month as a junior architect. Just graduated last month. They pay me 3.2k per month (for probation period 3 months), 3 times bonus per year, got fuel allowance, will get car + petrol card after 5 years (if i stay that long here). If u know GDP architect, there it is. Architect of Pavilion, Ministry of Finance, Universiti Teknologi Petronas, The Troika, Sri Maya Condo and many more...

wow fresh grad oledi can get rm3.2k so gud.

Kind of impossible to think of such an expensive employee in Malaysia. how many customers do you service per day?

Hi ,

I didn't mislead anybody , I am just telling the truth , we should work for interest then only come salary, if you are getting high pay but are not enjoying the work, what for ?
Maybe Engineering not paying as high as banking line in average , but still enough for someone to live, and engineering field is stable , not much affected by economy if compare to other sector .
Take myself as an example , I am a Mechanical Engineer, 8 years experience, I am 32 years old, my salary last year is 7k , now I am getting 15k because I been approached by a head hunter company to work in oversea , now I am in Shanghai as an expatriate, all my living expenses cover by company. I have met many malaysian working here in Shanghai, most of them with engineering back ground.
There are no such thing as engineering get lower pay or finance sucks , all depend on individual commitment and target.
Please understand that I am not showing off anything or promoting engineering , just want to point out that if you commit enough you can achieve anything in any field.
Cheers

if you have 10 year expricense or working as IT consultant/Architect there is a lot of job paying 100k for that in London.

I did talk to people in the finance side, but the high paying IT jobs on the finance side seems to be drying up quite a bit especially due to the subprime mess hitting the finance industry. Having been to London on vacation before, I think I'd rather work in the US or Australia for the same amount of money, London is insanely expensive.

You might want to qualify that by stating PROFESSIONALS like engineers, doctors, lawyers, accountants, IT professionals, etc generally get crappy pay in Malaysia.

I have a friend working in the IT - SAP sector, with 7 years of experience, salary up to 35k a month! I wish i would have the opportunity to involve in that field.

By all means go around telling people how good ur salary is. For pete's sake look at other people's post be humble before u even try claiming the throne. I am only 27 and i am making close to 15k. So wat makes me? A nobody. Because some people i know doesnt even need to break a sweat to hit that high. That's the magic of being in the correct industry. But as for myself, i am an engineer already married to my work. I have to work double time and I am always "outside'. So the $ doesnt do justice as oppose to office folks.

Comprende?

Wow, young and having a great income. Impressive...

wanna earn big bucks?

become sea-going marine engineer or mariner. just study diploma for 3 1/2 years.

MISC just revise their salary.

fresh grad diploma student will be paid rm3900(basic) for starting. plus allowance, total salary will become around rm6500-7000. the salary is tax free. meal provided. no need for transportation when going to work. no money needed to spend on petrol when working.

downside is, you'll be far away from ur family for about 4-9month. haha. coz you'll be living in the ship. sailing with it. risky job. well, that's what going to be my future career.

btw, the figure i get it from those who are working. so, it is not a lie.

I see quite a few post about going to Uk and work...

I am currently working in London as a graduate engineer. At the starting salary of 2KGBP a month...after tax...its like 1.5K++.
Because of the high rent, 1/3 of it goes into paying for my room(room only....lol.)

But the rest I can spend quite comfortably and can easily save 500gbp a month or more if I want to. Just need some determination.

The problem in the Uk is the boloody high tax....is my salary doubles..guess what..my take home will be less than 3K a month(although that would be nice..)

Frankly.....for me there is a limit where more money does not equate more happiness...I would be more than happy to trade a 80kGBP/year job for a 250kMYR job in malaysia. The quality of life back in malaysia is just wayy better especially if family frens is here.

A recent survey says that a salary of 45kGBP in the UK would satisfy most people...and thats about right in my calculations.

That said....because of the higher currency, I can buy stuffs I can only dream of if I were to work in malaysia( HDTV, PS3, paying for the air ticket back home myself..bla bla..)
Downside is crappy food....crap weather...

u in finance /accounting field?

qualification + looking for better offer all the time + professional cert + luck...
that's wat my fren doing...

vboy kaya loh

rm250k is alot in msia. u r not comparing apple with apple

kuli

From the UK govt point of view, when comparing salaries between UK and Malaysia, RM200k/year in Malaysia is equivalent to getting a 80k GBP/year salary in the UK. I don't know where they get the conversion rate, but it's what's stated when you do the UK Border Agency assessment for UK PR/work visa. I assume it comes from a rough comparison between standard of living between the two countries.
