What is a good salary in Malaysia for a couple with a 3 yrs old kid?

Good Question!

Oh Boy! You must be very lucky Buddy! How come we, Malaysian IT guys are not paid like that high salary?

Hi, I'm from IT line too. It depends on what's the job position & level of management you're in. It also depends on your years of experience, bonus/benefits & etc. I recommend you to talk to the hiring manager or their company's HR officer, they should be able to give you better answer esp. on the tax deduction & etc. The house rental in Cyberjaya, can go up to 1.5-2K+. International school fees can be around 1-3K per semester (depending to which school). If it's the normal pre-school, it cost around RM300-600 per semester. Average cost per meal+drink in Cyberjaya: Near to RM15 above. If outside Cyberjaya, can get below RM10. The rental & travel cost, it depends on whether you are staying in Cyberjaya itself or neighboring towns which are relatively cheaper. The public transport are not that good in Cyberjaya because it's not the main KL cities, most drive their own vehicle in Cyberjaya. ====================== Hi it's pretty good offer for your position!
