Big cannon. Might as well say increase to 5k to do low level work and work like dog with bonus that is so **** might as well don't pay. Somemore need to do professional qualification? Ain't got time for this **** man. Go somewhere that pay better.

Very simple. It is a well known fact that attractive people do better in life and careers. They get better grades, succeed in interviews more, get noticed and promoted faster, and get better pay. You can say that correlation is not causation, but this is a well known observation.

In SG, audit and Big 4 is considered low prestige job. So people that can only make it there seem to be the lower calibre, unattractive ones. Notice how all the high flyer professions like IB, law, consulting, medicine have many attractive and well spoken, well put together people?

However for MYsians, audit is still considered quite prestigious cos their country is so poor it doesn't have many other high flying jobs. So on the whole they have more of the higher calibre attractive ones relative to their countrymen. Those that can work in Big 4 in Singapore lagi even more high flier, since only the "cream of the crop" can leave bolehland to come here. That's why in Big 4, the jhb you see are generally chioer than the sinkie bu you see.

You know where to find chio sinkie bus? They're working in MAP in the Big 3 banks or RMs in private banks. Not audit.
