application - rm100 for interview
insurance, paperwork etc etc etc - rm2800-100 = 2700
visa fees - 500+
air tic - 3-5k
pocket $$$ - 4k

total around 10k lor... work 2 months settle d
*
so it means i hav to prepare RM10k in hand b4 participate in dis programme?
erm SeLrAhC, ur mentioned 13k in 4months is ur gross income or net income?
well, i planned to go on next yr june summer programme, ill work 3mths n travel bout 10days, wonderin will i still profit provided i use bout 1kUSD to travel? i dun wanna loss money though, bt break even is ok.

1 more thing is, the employer will bank in our salary or giv us in cash? if bank in, wat bank acc i hav to register in b4?

bcoz ur employer provide meal n lodging 4 u, so, u earn tat much? wat if the employer dun provide these? able to earn(nett income) hw much? plz clear my doubts here...><

yeaps.. drinking some corona now.. lol.. ppl r having a party n i m posting here.. lol

ermm... gross income is around 13-14k ... so after deduction i get back like 10kusd

ermm.. meals i get from workplace or i jack them... lol

as for accomodation, i share... so it is kinda cheap.. like er... max 350usd max /month... employer pays for monthly bus passes, so ..

but of course not every1 is as lucky as me...
oh.. my reason is WAT and that's a reason already....  i mean as i had mentioned earlier, they are stict for b and f visas but not j-1s

me? i m here alone... with my american homies.. but more msians will be joining me mid of next month

ahh ure so lucky le....no wonder u cn earn so much le...
if the employer din provide those perk...most probably cn around 1kusd/month oni i thk.. doh.gif
