Moving from india to Malaysia need help ???

Hi Swathi,

I think legally there will be no issues in shifting a company,  Ur hubby needs to check if the contract with his currently employer allows him to change jobs and there is no bond or any other clauses that will stop him from moving.

Regarding 3000RM for surviving I Believe u can surely Manage. Another suggestion is to take a unfurnished apartment and u will save about 700 RM everyone month and u can buy just what is required for the house.

Hi Saraswathi..

I'm not sure about how much deduction for the tax but if you're telling that your husband will get RM 8000/month, that's a pretty good offer.
and I agree with Bharatsamant...try to find unfurnished apartment or try to get a house outside Cyberjaya like Serdang/Sri kembangan/Kajang.

Hello Saraswathi,

From whatever I know, 8K is a decent salary. If you are careful on the housing part (which is going to take a large portion of the sal) it should be OK. If you have to put the kid (may be next year) in a pre-school or playhome, things might get a bit tight, so got to save from day 1 All the best.

Hi!
I am from Hyderabad too. When I came to KL after marriage, my husband was earning 8k as well and it quite sufficient. Malaysia is a great place to be. Dont just look at the financial aspect. The exposure and experience will be invaluable.

well you dont get a house in cyberjaya you could get one in puchong where you can get an unfurnished condo for RM1000 and you can save RM7000 which onli 15 mins drive from cyberjaya. let me know if you are intrested i have a unit there 3bedroom and 2 bath.

i m from India. but my husband job in malaysia. company give his 6 months work permit. but job is not satisfied so i want his job provide those countery.there he live. i want to be satteld himself. pls advice me what to do?

Hai.....

   my self dr.venu i got ajob offer in kuala lumpur with         10000rm..and i want to know about tax deduction.nd planning to go with my wife she is bds from india,is there any job vacancies for dentist and how much they pay for her..is it worth going there please give me suggestions as soon as possible so that i can decide it as early... thanku

hi all, there seem to b some common questions here. let me see if i can help.

8-10k is good in malaysia if u r married and no school going kids. for 10k salary, u can expect about 1500 to b cut for tax. there r very few ways to avoid tax in malaysia.

in terms of monthly expenses, i would suggest setting aside 2000 for accomodation. 1000 for groceries. 600-700 for a normal local malaysian hatchback car. 400 for electricity, water and internet. add 1000 for other misc expenses. basically about 5000 myr. so u should save the rest after taxes.

bear in mind that if u live an absolutely simple life, u can drop ur expenses to even 4k.

single guys can save more on accom as there are many single men in kl who are willing to share condos.

malaysia is a great place to live. a lot less polluted and crowded than india. and its a good experience. enjoy yourselves.

thank u for ur valuable suggestion ....and i want to know more details about dentistry over there me md my wife both are dentist ...i got job offer in mahsa dental college...is there ny possibility of getting job to her in dental clinics...nd wat was the timings of dental clinics nd wat was da procedure to get job to her... plz give me suggestion

to start, its generally not easy to get a job in kl for expats. but doctors and dentists are professions which are in demand, i hear. but apply, might get lucky.

Sorry buddy.. Not to discourage you but the fact is that with the kind of job experience that you have mentioned, it will be very very hard for you to find a job here. You need a special skill set to be able to win the job over from the locals.
Or best option is to get a job arranged thru your friends or relatives who might be living here already.
Cheers..!

I have a situation

Actually started working in KL from Jul 1st 2013 and I see by Dec 31 it comes to 184 days. So I understand I will be a Tax Resident for this year and can avail the refund.

But the problem is  I will be going back to India permanently by Jan 2014. My question - can I still file 'returns' and get back my money even I am no more in Malaysia?

Also between this period if I travel to India less than 14 days ,
will that be counted and comes to 184 days ?

looking for an opportunity in Malaysia

Hi all,

I'm going to marry in Nov14. My would be in Malaysia penang.I'm also willing to work in malaysia. I'm searching the jobs in website also. Can anyone please help me out to get a job in software side.?Currently i'm working in TCS and work experience is 2yrs in java and .net.  Please reply anyone...

meena, doesnt tcs have a branch in kl? i heard satyam has an office. maybe u cud start from there. try getting a job from india itself.

Just my two cents here.. While we were in Chennai, my wife was working for TCS.. Singapore and Malaysia works were being channelized to them for reasons I am not aware of..Things may be different now, but checking with Satyam is a better idea..!
Cheers..!

Tcs is there in kl. But i need job in penang or nearby penang...can any one please help me to get a job?

that would be incredibly tough. where in penang?

Anywhere in penang is ok...

1) I am from India. I have got an offer of total 16,000 MYR (including housing)- no car allowance....wanted to understand  that is the salary good for a middle management position in Corporate Finance/ investment banking in KL or I am being valued less? I have 6 years exp in M&A and investment banking.

I am married- my wife is a home maker and child is 3 months old- would prefer a 2 bedroom condo in Mt.Kiara and will require a car to travel.

2) Child education is atleast 2-3 years away  but should I negotiate any education allowance with the Company?

3) I am being offered a 2 year contract role as an expat and after that be considered for a permanent role- is it a norm for expats ( contract)?- please suggest
