Is family medicine considered a true speciality and financially compensated similarly?
In Austria, the pay in the early years is good but there's relatively little progression in pay (within hospitals). Could be better off in Singapore as a specialist/family physician.
A specialist with 5 years of post-specialization experience will only take home ~ 50% more than a 1st year intern. Compensation for family doctors is roughly 10% less than for specialists.

4 to 7k as intern is correct. Per month
After specialization is 20 to 30k. Per month.
Family medicine is a recognized specialty in Singapore. If you go private you can earn eaily 500k a year.
Austria is dismal. Yes you should come to Singapore. Definitely way more rewarding financially. Lots of rich family doctors driving Ferraris and living in huge landed good class bungalows.
