I wanted to emigrate to Australia in 1987 ... under company's sponsorship. Took me about 3 weeks to get all documents set up. Then I told my boss "Thanks but no thanks".

My 2 children also loved being in Malaysia. Cost of living very affordable and can zoom off anywhere quite easily.

Staying here with a live in maid very affordable. Not sure can afford that in Australia?

Not too sure if I agree with you in terms of affordability since minimum wages are enforced here.

You can live comfortably here on a $3k p/m nett salary - can you do that in Malaysia?

No way lol. Even my shopping for 1 week of groceries at Woolworths usually sets me back about 110 to 120. But it sure beats eating out in terms of price.

Earning 10000 a month in Aus in all honesty isn't much.

It's subjective depending on your lifestyle and how thrifty you are and how you make ends meet with your salary.

I spend frivolously so no matter how much I earn be it AUD 10k-20k a month, it will never be sufficient.

Whereas someone earning AUD3-4k a month can live a comfortable life even in Sydney while raising a family without the help of Centrelink.
