Thats way too low man...

Since experience is one of the most important aspect as an engineer, engineering should adopt "Apprenticeship" scheme. Maybe extend intern from 6 weeks to 6 months to 1 year.

Or just try to emulate from the german style.

Why are engineers so undervalued, been seeing everyone has been saying that engineering pays super low, especially in the construction and design career path. Would like feedback before my brother ventures into engineering. WHY MALAYSIA LIKE THIS, WHY OH WHY!!

Upgrade to engineering consultant and trainer bro.
But keep in contact with the sales side.

That way you get paid for your tok kok and also get referral fee from suppliers when suggest solutions. biggrin.gif

I have a couple of friends that graduated from Engineering from NUS and NTU, now the have kids, and they always say, if their kids say to them want to study "Anjingneering", they will break their kids leg.

All of them left the engineering field and doing some other stuff, which is more well paying.
