6k sgd/20k ringgit

Want eat michelin once a year also difficult

Every night sleepless night wondering whether your job will move overseas
Hence, 20k rm will have better standards of living as compared to 6/7k sgd

Nobody except malaysians will base their retirement functional currency in MYR

Our personal functional currency is measured in USD and 1st world standard of retirement

This is based on the yearly holidays we need as well

Thats why i keep insisting we benchmark against USA and Switzerland salaries which are always 3k to 5k higher per month than SG for equivalent roles

Strawmen argument
Frog in the well people like you only see surface
When you compare wages of the median American you MUST also compare the cost of living and taxes. And from the same area too. You can take wages earned in NYC and then conveniently shift goalpost and quote cost of living in Midwest and taxes in Nevada.
And fact of the matter is there are more homeless people in the USA as a % compared to Singapore
So what the hell are ypu benchmarking against?

And losing your job to malaysian in Johor is a forgone conclusion. Its writing on the wall. Unless you can offer a much better value proposition to employers, there is no chance you will still have a job once SEZ is up. No chance.

Given that you have a superior education standards in SG and experience, if you can't outcompete the malaysians for a job, then you only have yourself to blame. Its like going to a supermarket and seeing similar product quality but at a vastly different price. No brainer. So work on a personal branding or perish in this job and prepare to become grab driver.

GCT say swiss standard of living

I cannot simply base my retirement on SG standard of living if i were to retire elsewhere

All i can say is that accountancy practitioners in USA and Switzerland definitely earn more over there after tax. Why should we be underpaid?

The expectations of our work is perfection and timeliness.

I already said before a few times. The only viable exit opportunity is government sector or accountancy education (given that enrolment rates are dropping, this will be a problem too)

Most employers will not pay premium for top accounting staff because its not a necessity in that form of jobscope.

There is simply limited market for top chartered accountants especially for a routine based and mainly cost center job.

Accounting staff dont do sales and there is only limited input on company expansion.
You still need to rely on other departments to bring in the dough

the success of foreigners in Singapore accountancy sector already dispelled a myth of superiority relating to NUS NTU SMU

The myth of invinsibility of NTU and NUS accountancy is fully dismissed as a result

What can NTU and NUS accountancy do that HELP, UTAR , UKM and UTM Accountancy cannot do?

This is my question to everyone here
