‘Is Studying Still Worth It?’- Graduate Asks As They Earn RM2,500 While TikTok Influencer Makes More Weeklyhttps://weirdkaya.com/is-studying-still-wor...es-more-weekly/
QUOTE
A social media post comparing a fresh graduate’s RM2,500 monthly salary to the weekly earnings of a TikTok influencer has sparked heated discussions about Malaysia’s education system, job market, and the meaning of success.
The viral post, now circulating on social media, detailed how a university graduate’s first job pays only RM2,500 a month—roughly equivalent to what some influencers earn in just one week through brand collaborations.
Education system still relevant

After studying for four years, we step into society and make RM2,500 a month. But a TikTok influencer can earn the same in a week. Is our education system still relevant?” the post read.
