Singapore. She won't get a job in Malaysia as pay rates for accounting clerks is 3k or less way below work permit limit of 5k and glut of accounting grads locally. Unless she gets a job before hand with a Filipino company operating here or others she won't get one by looking here she will only waste time and money.

Singapore has clamped down on foreign labour also so she will need lots of experience to get a good job or a Prof acc qualification.

Hello,

How much is the salary of nurses here in Malaysia??

Lifesfree

Hi I'm not employed in any hospital here in malaysia but i have an idea of staff nurses salary for locals would equate as 1800rm as the basic somehow higher if earn a experienced and expertise for the foreigners im not sure but I think hospitals here is not open to accomodate foreigners. Another is that salary varies depends on institution if its a givernment or private sector.Thanks

When I been to hospital all local staff. Prob not allowed to employ foreigners as plenty if unemployed Malaysians.

Try UK none of the nurses are British when I was in hospital with appendicitis. Mostly fillipino!
