Nope.. basically, i would say we were underpaid. even when i had interview with new company, they were shocked as i was paid that much. Then, they give me increment for 81% to be exact..haha

Hi, I'm just sharing the offer that I got in one of Oil and gas company somewhere in middle east country. Unfortunately, I decline the offer due to personal and family reason - need to relocated to the country. Just share it here on what I got.

Nope.. the one that i got is legit.. i apply though company website.. and went through 2 stage interview. Did not apply through any agent..

It is purely family reason. was casually looking and went to the interview.. will definitely apply again in future.

Alhamdulillah.. still manage to get 5 figure salary in Malaysia even though it is not as high as what they offered.. But surely will apply again in future once the family is stable and proper migration plan (my wife also working and some other family matter which prohibit me to migrate at the moment .. btw, it is oil and gas company in Qatar
