Dear Joeymon!
For asking the salary, you have to be specific about the profession you're into. Please note that the Salary of an engineer is not equivalent to the salary of an accountant. There's a huge difference between the salaries of different professions. So please be specific about ur profession so that the salary scale can be advised to you in accordance to your qualification/ years of experience and the profession ur into.
