Sorry mate, can't divulge too much hehe.
You're quite close by the way.
Are you a fellow lecturer too by the way?

Ditto.

Depending on what you do, where you are from, and where you are posted, you can claim different types of allowances.

For example, if you are working at your own home state/province, then you will only get a small housing allowance. If you are in the armed forces, police, firefighting services, you might just get barrack allowance. If you are posted from one province to another, then you will get province housing allowance (which can be quite high but necessary). However, if you take a government loan to buy a house at where you are posted, you will lose the allowance and get the paltry housing allowance instead.

Certain lecturers who teach critical subjects might also get something called 'bayaran insentif perkhidmatan kritikal'. These subjects might include engineering based ones. This also applies for other schemes such as dentistry teaching and law officers.

Guys, am I doing okay for someone in his late 30s? Trying to gauge my career and earnings  trajectory... thx

Getting a high salary is all dependent on your field, company, position and skillset.

At age 23 i was making an average of 10K/month and my highest take home pay per month was 30K. Some may say it’s extremely high, but in that particular field that salary range is still considered to be low.

Fast forward to 2020, im 30 now and only making 5K/month. Drastic drop to what i was used to but everything has its pros and cons. Expected from changing fields.

Do i miss the high pay? Of course but when i recall all the shit I’ve dealt with and time spent working i do appreciate my current circumstances to live within my means as an average joe.

Your worth in an organisation is all relevant to your value and hence reflects on your salary.

No point to be comparing with other on whats their worth, there’ll always be someone who’ll put a bigger/better something on the table.

My humble 2cents
Peace.

Even in today’s troubled times with shipyards and oil in full retreat?

Thanks. Yes, i would believe for most ppl luck and good boss play a role. If u meet shitty boss and no luck then no matter how good you are, you can't shine.
Thanks.
This year 33.

I start work at 27 years old as initially I took master with aim to be lecturer but realise research life + teaching life is not for me (with how long I took to complete the master).
