u might call her a lecturer, but u need to actually see her payslip to see what her actual post is. back when i was a tutor, i didnt say i was a tutor heheheh . maluuuuu...

but it depends on which IPTAs. new IPTAs entice new academicians with the lecturer post even with a masters. if they only offer lecturer for PhDs, i bet nobody gonna even apply.
sounds good.
sure, u can try. but remember, PhD thesis is public domain. everyone has equal right to read ur thesis and dispute it. those who "bought" their PhDs NEVER would reveal their thesis. just go and check those artists with doctorates. even a slight mention about their thesis they will go out of their way to change the topic!

PhD is serious matter. PhD is about creating/acquiring new knowledge that does not exist before. for example, ur PhD found out that pi is not 3.1742, so it is significant in the body of knowledge that it's a game changer. but u cant get a PhD by simulating an existing knowledge, for example, proving that 3.1742 can be used to calculate a circumference.

so if ur lecturer did "buy" his PhD, ask him to share, publish or present his paper in a conference.

Yea, my friend, u misunderstood my satement already.

My question is, does obtaining a PHD can easily earn 6 to 7 K in academic field?

lol u're right. sorry, must be this hospital air.

yes, they can easily earn RM6k. with a full professorship, it's easily 5 figure.

because of allowance? i didnt say ur SALARY will be RM6k. i said u will EARN RM6k.

ur base salary will be around RM3.5k. then there's all the allowances and stuff, some of which are not taxable. this can be around RM1.5k to RM3k.

my pre-PhD earning (lecturer with masters) was already RM4.3k.

lecturer gt young and pretty eh ma??

Hard to judge sometimes. I'm an acad exec in one of the ipts, doing lecturing also (something like part time) and I get around 3.5k with my masters. Is that low?

for basic pay?
