Hi,

I am from India. I got an offer with 6,500 RM in selangor area. Company provides accommodation and transportation for only first 1 month and 5000 RM as relocation expenses. I am married and having a recently born child. My wife is a dentist with 1 year of experience. Is this pay good enough for my family ? What is the scope for dentists in Malaysia ? Is there any possibility of saving anything? Can a dentist from India work in Malaysia directly? how much they can earn ?

Thanks in advance..!!

The salary is enough frmo my point of view, but of course, it depends on the location that you are going to stay.
While for your wife job, that one maybe u need to search for different clinic and ask. The qualification is the important one i think.
Good luck

Thanks for the info..can i save any money with this earning ?

It depends on how u spend the money, and how much is your house rental. But if both of you and your wife are working, i think saving money is not a problem.
The main thing is how you plan your spending. Always plan before spending it.
