Answer:
Like everything else in life, it depends. If you're a run-of-the-mill developer with some exposure to PHP, rudimentary knowledge of HTTP and working knowledge of HTML, CSS, JS, consider ~ RM 3-6K (a month, that is). If you're fairly skilled with sufficiently well rounded exposure, consider between RM10K - RM15K (a month). Of course, finding an employer that will pay you that much will be a significant challenge in and of itself. As you can see, the situation in Malaysia poses a particularly difficult economic conundrum: employers are not willing to pay compensatory rates for skilled employees, and employees don't see the value of investing time/effort in building their repertoire of skills as there is no market willing to pay equitable rates To make matters worse for Malaysian employees, our regional neighbours (Indonesia, Philippines etc) are hungry, speak the same language as us, and are willing to work hard and cheap for the dough. Smart employers leverage regional talent which further dampens demand for Malaysian employees. Skilled hackers hit this realization roughly at the age of 30, and conclude that there is a triply-forked path ahead of them: Go freelance or start a company/startup Go down the sales/management career path where five-figure monthly salaries are possible Get lucky enough to work for the (international) tech giants All three possibilities remove skilled hackers from the job market which explains the rarity of older skilled hackers in non-management roles. This has a material impact as technology capacity and knowhow is not kept within the organization, mentoring opportunities between seniors and juniors are lost, and every new batch of talented juniors end up re-inventing the wheel. However, there is upside to all of this; technology entrepreneurs with keen understanding of developeronomics[0] will offer equitable or better-then-equitable rates to talented hackers and basically be able to snatch most of them up. In fact, there are couple of companies in the Valley[1] which have embarked on this hiring strategy and it is certainly working out well for them. The tl;dr answer answer your question is that salaries aren't especially good if you're not skilled, and if you're skilled, you really shouldn't be working for the man in Malaysia.
