No farmer? maybe i'm in different social circles but i've met quite numbers of farmers who earn 5 digits per month. half of them above 20k.

they rarely meet you meh?

Was a bank sales exec for almost 6 years and get to see thousands of payslip application from many walks of life.

What ts review here is sport on pretty similar to what i encounter as well. IT, despite many ketard IT saying they are paid less, is making above aberage figure compared to other industries.

The top 2 in my list based on sampling application is the same as TS:

1. Pilot
2. OffshoreO&G

Although I'd like to point out that discussing your income privately between peers might open yourself up to certain discrimination; e.g., if that person you've shared with could end-up been loose lip about your income and thus causing others (with lower income) might be envious of you; thus disrupting the entire relationship between working peers.

That is one scenario; but overall, if personal income are to be shared constructively, it will be an added advantage for the employee to negotiate for a better salary (should they want to remain and progress further in the same company).

Nope. It is a servicing-based Oil and Gas company, as in it would be servicing plenty of clients O&G companies - Petronas is a client company, not a servicing one. It is an MNC company with multiple offices across the world including in Australia. It is very diverse, with good representation from every groups in their office in KL.

This is the problem with Malaysians, their mindset is that of: UiTM = Melayu = Tongkat = Petronas. Just so you know, there are plenty of capable Bumiputras out there, a good number of them so much more capable than most people give credit to. These new-gen Bumiputras can compete at the same levels against others in racially-blind MNC companies where meritocracy prevails

Malays are not incompetent due to their skin-color, likewise Chinese are not superior due to the shapes/sizes of their eyes. It would be wise for one to stop stereotyping each other based on their physical features. Judge a person based on himself and not the groups you assign them into.

It is quite sad to see that there are still racially-inclined (a.k.a racists) that would blanket-label everyone into a single group to cover or deflect their own insecurities. Perhaps you didn't earn RM5,000 in your first job, and being a non-Malay you explain your lack of successes (compared to the UiTM graduate) by saying that he's a Malay so he gets help by being employed in Petronas. Well I am here to tell you that he competed fair and square, he did well during his internship and they liked him so much that he was offered a job before he even graduated

UiTM lah~~~

University Tanah Melayu hahahaha

Just kidding, University Teknologi Melayu MARA

UTP intern gave me trauma. 

Even order me do some of their work.
Suggesting my allocated time for the task was not reasonable.

   

Damn. I hope that one apple doesnt spoil the whole barrel
The world is facing pilot shortages[B]. I remember my pilot client from MAS telling me that other companies set up booths at the pilots lounge area at the airport (of sorts), ala a career fair, to snatch MAS pilots away

Janji jangan dengki dengan orang lain yang gaji besar dan tuduh mereka tindas dan curi peluang orang lain ok dah. Too bad Malaysia got a lot of people like that.

Dam ....

To be fair. Somehow the experience will be there, and others Uni will be higher priority/ranking in our list d. 😅
Me minions The yellow wearing goggle kind of minion

unfortunately kopitiam posts yields no post counts despite my quality replies     
Fair enough, you do you. Credit where it is due. They are ambassadors of their alma matter afterall. If they fuck up, it will affect people's perception of their  unis

Nah, that client did have CCNP only and I was impressed with his pay. I need to dig in if I need to verify though, as his case was of a few years ago. Works for a premier local company that is likely and MNC by now. 
Hey that is a good idea. Im like the deposits of all their income information  Why not right, some of them are bound to be looking for finances as well
Hehe. Thanks mate for the brilliant idea. Haven't thought of that since I never really needed a job. But you made good sense

any business that doesn't require expertise but need only time to grind on it to make it profitable?
grind means like do something routine/mundane but u need to keep at it and u will make profits.

Other than what you have listed so far, some things off the top of my head:

1) Management consulting - spoke to someone in one of the B consulting group 3 months ago (either Bain or BCG, won't reveal). Was told that RM12K for entry level consultant is legit, but qualifications needed very high. First class honours from Oxbridge or high gpa degree from Ivy Leage, Stanford, Chicago, Northwestern, Duke.

2) Lawyers - small practice lawyers who have established a certain reputation and built a certain network can earn RM20K to RM30K by the age of 35.

3) Successful businessmen - there are folks between ages 25 to 35 who have a successful business with tens of employees and a million or two in yearly revenue. Assume that they can make 20% net profit off of their business - that's approximately RM20K a month for a business with RM1 million revenue per year.

4) Partners in successful professional services firms - accounting, engineering, medical clinics, pharmacies - can reach partnership by age 30 to 35, can earn RM20K per month.

5) Local lads and ladies stationed here by MNCs but with expat status - I know some folks working for Fortune 500 level corporations who are Malaysian born and bred, but studied overseas, and have been posted back to Malaysia as "expats". Their compensation package is in foreign currency, and they also get benefits and allowance tagged on. Manager level chap with staff of 10 under him pulls in RM20K easy. Country head at age of 35 - RM40K / month. Regional head at age of 38 - RM70K/month excluding allowances. Include allowances, and he is in RM100K/month club.

That's just Malaysia. Haven't talked about the big fishes of Singapore, Japan, Hong Kong, Europe, Canada and US yet. Or the biggest quiet fishes in China. Very tip of the iceberg stuff here lar.
