QUOTE(mccrutch @ Jun 11 2008, 01:20 PM) hongkong has the highest 'salary rate' in asia next is thailand, singapore then malaysia nah...living cost isnt much of a problem in hkg...the only thing expensive is the rent but u can still get very cheap places if you know where to find. with 30k hkd a month, the 20% extra in food etc are peanuts seriously. u can afford to buy LV bags every month and you still can save 30k hkd is a good deal for freshies, but keep in mind that cost of living is about 20% more expensive than singapore... anyway i don't think you'll get that salary in singapore let alone malaysia.  usually the market rate for fresh grad is less than 20k...but i'm one of the lucky ones who get 35k without exp...been here for 6 months already, and i tell you...life is good... |
