Need Help and Advice

Hi ,

I have got a offer in KL for RM 30 K and moving in with my family ( 2 kids ). Need help to understand the following -

1. How is the salary for KL, we do have a back home liability of RM 6500 ?

2. Where is a good place / area to stay, my office will be in Petaling Jaya ?

3. Do you get full time maids in KL and what is the average salary ?

4. Can we buy a car as we arrive in KL ( people are telling us we cant get them financed) ?

Hi there, I've lived here over a year. Lots of places in Petaling Jaya to choose from. There are lots of maids but finding them to live in is tricky. The system here is lax so they have a lot of freedom compared to Singapore and therefore most are here illegally from the Philippines. Most of them would rather live out than in. I managed to get a live in from an expat relocating. Second hand cars vary in price, or you can rent a car. Our rental for a 7 seater, Korean make is RM2,000 per month. Oh and pay my maid RM1,800 per month. Hope this helps.

Thanks Fiona. Does this salary look ok, as per your experience in KL.

Your salary per month at 30,000 looks good yes
