China tax quite abit on the salary.
And China local wages are much lower compared to sg. It's already difficult for them to match our current salary.
Thus, it's additionaly difficult to get companies there to cover 17% additional for Singapore employer CPF contribution.
I can understand why previous post mentioned that some sg went over with similar pay or slight pay cut.
This is my current situation.

I am thinking of asking for 25% to 35% more than what i am getting now (including employer contribution). Employer contribution is 17% and capped at $1020 (because cpf contribution only up to $6k base pay). Therefore, I thinking this should be my minimum expectation
1.25 to 1.35 times current salary + $1020 + 1 monthly flight back home + accommodation allowance.
Sounds reasonable?

My understanding is working in China while may not renumerate very well at the start, once you come back you will be more sought after.
Due to the wider horizons and perspective
Like working in India, Africa.
Any advice?

With exposal at China will definitely be more sort after by companies in SG or other English speaking countries who are vesting in china.
I think those without experience in china before will a bit tougher to find work related to that country. Therefore, the salary will be lower. That's because of many factors cultural, working style, environment (cant go gmail, no facebook, no whatsapp), etc etc. This means that many foreigners will need to first overcome these before they can focus on their work.
Just my thought. Any one else?
