Wai Tat, plenty. but probably you are not ready if you dont know which are the ones.

Goodie:

Yes and gross total is $15 excluding all allowances

I thanks myself for having the ability and skills to perform very well and deliver results.

I am 28 years and I will work smarter.

Good! Finally something new. It would be tiresome to hear another year of your 12k, 28yr, 12k, 28yr, 12k, 28yr again.

Now all of us at salary.sg can look forward to another year of that new 28yr, 15k mantra of yours. I hope you'll turn 29 soon too, so change a bit to 29yr, 15k lah, to make it a bit less boring.

Then we can move to 18k, 30yr, 18k, 30yr, 18k, 30yr in 2010. Seems you're on the right track. Kudos!

I am suprise in the 2008 ranking that ship master salary (rank no:17) is not updated. Now the salary of ship master for Filipino, my company is paying USD 7,500 per month, equivalent to S$10,875 per month.
While for Singaporean and Malaysian, we are paying USD 9,500 per month, equivalent to S$13,775. One year work 8 months onboard and rest 4 months. Salary 12 months + 1 month AWS + 3 months bonus. If include bonus and AWS, it will come to S$18,366 per month for Singaporean and Malaysian. This salary is apply to container ship, tankers and AHT. For chemical tanker and LNG, salary will be 30% higher. Further, working onboard Singapore flag ship, all salary is tax exempted. I am welcome more Singaporean to go to sailing. Note: If any Singaporean or Malaysian possess COC class 1 foreign going, please kindly contact myself at 90060124, We are recruiting with AHT exprience.

Captain Thum, I do not have any AHT experience, but I'm willing to learn. Do you offer any training programmes?

Goodie - I'm glad what I am receiving this amount in times like this.

How about you? Care to advise?

haha

Ronnie, *of course* somebody like *you* will be glad lah! Good for you!

What about me? This is about you and sharing your 15k, 28yrs mantra for the world, man.

Seriously, especially during this troubled times, people desperately NEED somebody like you who is only 28 yrs old and yet earns 15k to tell us how happy and contented you are. The more repetitions the better!

Looking forward to many years more of your repetitive updates! I can chart it off already, 30yrs, 18k, 31yrs, 21k, 32 yrs, 24k... Keep it up dude!
P.S.: You can probably request salary.sg admin (nicely!) to write a script to automate your message to save some work!

Hi,

In 2008, I was working in an account manager in a online publishing company - salary package of $75k per year. (75% fixed, 25% variable)

Now, I am working also as an account manager in a consulting company - salary package of $190k per year (70% fixed, 30% variable)

I am blessed to have such an employer now although the nature of both the jobs are similar.

Blessed, that is excellent indeed. Just goes to prove that if one keeps actively looking and doesn't let himself to be limited by his own notion of how much one is supposed to earn, there's _always_ a way.
