10k is enough for me :3 . As long as it's enough to raise a family w/out depending on my hubby's income then it's good enough for me. So if anything happens to my hubby (touch wood!!) or if we end up divorced (touch wood too!!) then at least my family and I can survive. For some reason I'm super paranoid of turning into those women who end up in trouble because they're too dependent on their hubby's income >_< ./off topic
Back to the topic, if you're going to do your pre reg in Malaysia I'd advise you to avoid HTAR Klang if possible. I've heard from too many people that working there is a nightmare! Crazy politics + insane workload x___x;;; .

Pharmacists sad.gif . Which sounds very scary lol. Well if you're contributing to all the household expenses alone then yeah it probably won't be enough XD. However I think usually the costs of the house are shared between both partners? So it's not that 'painful' XD.

Well basically the workload is crazy (compared to other hospitals apparently) and that the office politics there are very scary >_< . That's what I heard anyway XD . HOWEVER if you go in with a positive attitude then you should be able to survive smile.gif .

in order to work with watson, the pharmacist must be registered with the MPS (malaysia pharmaceutical society)
wut xuzen means is that after the PRP and houseman, the pharmacist can receive that salary
of course, work with private hospital thereafter also can get more paid as well

Not too sure about that actually. I just heard that it's extremely busy and some say that it's haunted =___________=;;;; .

Then again if you really want to believe that it's haunted then you might as well say the same thing for ALL hospitals XD .

Oh well I think the other hospitals aren't as bad as HTAR for some reason (which I have never thought of asking about >_>;;;). Just that most of my seniors (those who aren't at HTAR) seem to be having a breeze but the ones who are at HTAR are crying blood. When one of my classmates (who lives in Klang) posted on facebook about hoping to get HTAR a lot of seniors commented saying 'Lol you sure? We heard HTAR is horrible.' =_=;;. However no one explained why is it worse compared to all the other hospitals >_> . The most anyone has ever said is 'Crazy workload and bad politics' but no one explained why is the workload more =_=;;;. Never thought of asking either until you asked why XD .

well, for me i would get a proper explanation on why a place is deemed good/horrible before coming to a conclusion. laugh.gif

and there are so many departments in the hospital as well. if outpatient pharmacy i would understand its very busy, but i don't think the pharmacy at general surgery, urology etc will be that busy IMO.

i do believe that bad politics exists as its very hard to gain promotion in the public sector..especially so if you are not bumiputera... laugh.gif

I am truly not aware of the prospect of pharmacy. Previously, I have no intention to choose pharmacy because of my mindset that it is mostly administrative work and it's not as challenging as engineer.

The salary for pharmacy really dumbfound me. Are you guys really sure that pharmacy pay is this attractive? I am engineer but work in oil and gas setor to earn the equivalent. If this is true, I think I'm working twice the risk to get the same salary..
You've little to none information pertaining the pharmaceutical industry. It's a professional path which is similar to engineering. With the licensing and CPD keeping you in check, you'll be very much surprised if one to be told that an engineer is equivalent to a registered pharmacist.

inventory management? as in wat?

also, i am wondering, does the company like pharmaniaga or pfizer look at your result if you going for industry pharmacist?

i read that demand of pharmacist outstrip the supply in msia nowadays. However, when i asked some of my friends, they mentioned that the gov hospital in west coast malaysia is pretty much saturated with pharmacist nowadays.. is that true? rclxub.gif
Inventory Management of pharmaceutical items is also commonly referred to as stock control, is a process where you use to keep track of objects and materials used in business operations. The practice of inventory control is to minimise costs associated with procuring and stocking unneeded inventory. For my side, it's the responsibility of the Chief Pharmacist to handle such procurement process. Drugs in, drugs out. How much left? How much has been dispensed? You should have a picture on how Inventory Management works.

It's been a saturating all over the place across the board. What makes you different from the others? I'll let you to answer your own question.

Maybe it's busier because there are more patients overall :S ? That's the only explanation I can think of x_x . If that's the case then shouldn't bad politics exist in all government run hospitals XD ?

hey, if you are thinking about money only, then it is better dont go for pharmacy, u have to sacrifice urself to do alot alot alot of hardworks..no matter u are studying or working in the pharmacy practice field..it is all about responsibility and duties..u have to serve the patients..u have to set ur mindset to treat people at first prior to earn money..although a pharmacist is consider middle income group people that could earn around RM7,000 per month(experienced pharmacist ie. 7 years experience)..u can consider to join direct selling company if u really want money only..most of the youngster nowsday join this path to earn money..and i got 4 frens they are just 17 years old their salary was already RM35,000..if they still put more hardwork into it..RM100,000 per month is not a problem at all..they feel energetic everyday and have motivation to do their job.. they are quite enjoy their job as well and they treat it as entertainment u see..thus, u must know ur objective..if u love your job, most probably u can do it well..is ur mind just thinking about money only or what..rethink it again..what u want actually, most of the pharmacist students always complain alot of work to do and alot of reading material to read up..
