Kepada yang berniat nak kojo kat Qatar...
Cost of Living kat sini 2 atau 3 kali ganda dari kat M'sia.
Kalau nak kerja sini base salary QR15K tu OK...housing Allowance minta QR8K...sbb average harga 1 rumah/apt 3 bilik kat sini ialah QR8K sebulan...allowance kereta minta QR1K...
Normal kos for Nasi Campur Minang dan Mi Goreng ialah QR15.
Ini belum masuk harga tiket family balik raya puasa...kalau tak negotiate betul...savings cukup untuk beli tiket balik raya posa jer...
lesen kereta sini susah nak dapat...M'sian license tak recognize...kena ambil JPJ school kat sini..for..3 weeks ..biasanya lepas 3 bulan dan 3 kali driving test wt the traffic police...baru dapat lesen...
Better ask for a Lump Sum QR25K per month..
Good Luck...!!!
Hi,
I have been working as a banker having specialization in corporate banking in Malaysia. I have been offered a job in Qatar for a RM position with a salary of approximately QR 21K of which QR13.5 will be for base salary and the remaining for my transport & housing allowances. I want to know will this amount be sufficent as I was informed 30% of ur salary allocated for ur accomodation. Not sure the remaining amount will ensure u to live comfortably and make any savings part of my salary. Will this amount be sufficient for me?
I want to know about living expenses in Qatar as of now.
Thanks.
My original post! Clearly says Doha to KL, I think you are the one better lay of the weed...
Yes the flight was Doha to Kuala Lumpur, as mentioned in my post...
turbulence happens everytime, its really scary. Its not bcos of Qatar Airways...everyone who has flown that route has experienced it
Qatar airways is terrible! We will never use them again. We took a Qatar/KL flight in December 2006, as food was about to served the plane hit some bad turbulence and lost height dramatically. An older muslim lady at the rear of the plane (just behind us) started panicking and praying loudly, the stewardess's abandonded their food trolleys and two of them crouched down in the aisles. The whole plane was shaking quite violently and I really thought we were going down, this continued for 30 to 45 minutes and during this time there was no reassurance at all from the flight crew. Eventually we levelled out and the shaking stopped, but later on in the flight we experienced the same thing for 3 or 4 short periods. We eventually landed safely at KL, and I can tell you we were never so glad to have our feet on solid ground again! So 'bye 'bye Qatar Airways, we don't want to go near another of your flights ever again...

Thanks a lot for the info novi n orange.

hi ya all, yep another malaysian here(Malaysia Truly Asia.....)
life's too short so make the most of it, you only live but once.......
Cost of living in Malaysia is certainly cheaper than Qatar. At least the traffic fines and rents are affordable although it doesn't mean traffic offences can be committed more often than in Qatar! I am not from the IT industry but I think salaries here are higher than in Malaysia. Then again, you'd have to compare the cost of living too. With the IT industry in Bangalore and other cities in India booming right now, I wouldn't be surprised if India too pays top dollars to attract Indians back to the country.
Yes, Malaysia is a lovely country for a honeymoon and is worth considering for retirement.
someonenew , about buying property in Malaysia do check this link :
http://www.mm2h.gov.my/
Hey I'm intersted in buying property there as well... any one has any information on that please pass it on.
Just wanted to know a few more things abt Malaysia- How is the cost of living compared to that of Qatar?
If I were to look for an IT job there would I get paid more than Qatar? More than India?
I went there for my honeymoon and absolutely loved the place. I think some day I want to settle in Malaysia.

Welcome to Malaysia....truly Asia !
Yes, Malaysia can be visited in every time, but for the east coast area, please refrain to visit during DEC to JAN.. it a heavy rain season and sometime flood.
Others area is always cheering at the time.
3 Major City which recommended are :
1. Penang
2. Kuala Lumpur
3. Melaka.
Dont forget to bring a big size memory card to your digikamera and shoot.
By the way, berapa ramai orang mesia ada kat sini.. buat kerja apa tuu? Let introduce your self and go meet each other kalau ada kelapangan..
Thanks.
Ustaz Zul.
Selamat datang ke Doha.. haha.. jgn lagi 2 bulan dah pikir nak balik dah la...
For visitor..anytime is a good time to go.. usually end of the year is not suitable for east side beach/island as the current and weather might be too harsh. Best time.. middle of the year I suppose.. can start from April.. But you can always go anytime.. if the weather is bad at east side.. go to west side..or vice versa..
Don't always go to Langkawi.. boring.. try and see Perhentian Kecil Island for a change.. white sandy beach with not so much development....
Anyway, if you're going to Malaysia using Qatar Airways, feel free to complaint about their old and terrible airplane.. let them change it A.S.A.P!!!
-Been ere in 'happening'Doha since Nov 2006-
;)
It's always raining, but it's not bad. It's a good break from Qatar's heat, especially Genting Highlands,at a point we had to wear jackets over there.
Yeah..Malaysia..is a beautiful place. Especially, this year they are celebrating 'Visit Malaysia - Tourism special".
I want to go during December but i read it rains too much that time.
hmmm...let me see.
i Missed Malaysia the last time i went on a trip. went to thailand and singapore, fitting malaysia into the schedule seemed too much, so Malaysia is on the travel agenda.
yup do tell us when is the best time to visit malaysia?
happy heart
DRIVE SAFE,someone is waiting for you at home
I just wanted to say, that I absolutely loved Malaysia! Beautiful people, beautiful country, it's just amazing! I've been there twice and hope I can go again. Penang and Langkawi are islands that must be visited! Arghhh...wish I was there now...
What's the best time to visit malaysia.
What would be the weather-like in Dec / Jan...Too much rain.?
Cheers,
Kawe dok denga brito keedean panah lek sini selook..

Yes, if some of you visit Malaysia, please take your time to visit :
1. KLCC Area
2. Berjaya Times Square
3. Midvalley City
4. Mines Wonderland
5. Sunway Lagoon & Sunway Pyramid
6. Putra Jaya Alamanda
7. Genting Highland
If you want to taste a beach..
Go to Langkawi or Some Island in Terengganu
area.. Perhentian, Pulau Kapas, Pulau Redang..
If want to taste a lake go to :
Tasik Kenyir in Terenganu also.
This Lake is almost 1/2 of Qatar.
Enjoy lah Malaysia.
One of my favourite place to go. Until recently they start catering tourists from the middle east. The hotel we used to go in Kuala Lumpur (New World Hotel) took the pork from breakfast table. When my husband ask, they said they concentrate to middle east tourists now.
Been to Tioman, Genting, Cameron Highland, KL (loads of times), Penang Island and Melaka.
Next time we want to go to Langkawi.
Favourite food from Malaysia is Penang Laksa and Nasi Lemak :-) Now i am hungry :-(
probably your kids would prefer Sunway better...
I've never stayed at Mines before, only been there a few times for dinner and meetings. Not a bad place, by a man made lake, water taxis, parks... etc.
The place is called MInes because it is built on a reclaimed land... used to be tin mine. hence the name... :)
Qatar has a pleasant winter. The temperature may drop down 7deg.C at night during the winter but the afternoon balanced out with hot sun makes the afternoon pleasant indeed. But now in May, the temperature is rising. The season is changing again. Winter is out, spring is here. Flowers continue blooming. Tomatoes ripening. 26deg.C in the morning and temperature rises to 42deg.C at noon. Cumulus Nimbus in the sky, occasional thunder storm, humidity rising. It almost reminds you of Malaysia. Until of course the sandstorm hits you. It is windy out there at the moment. Occasionally you can hear the hailing wind. I can hear some of the plastic bottles flying around. I looked outside the window, the sky has lost it blue and it seems that the whole world is changing to orange. Sandstorm is brewing out there. A very common phenomenon in the Middle East. It is called Shamal. Shamal is an Arabic word literally means north. Essentially, the Shamal is an event which occurs as a result of the Arabian Gulf being influenced by a part of the Monsoon circulation where the heat low over Pakistan and Afghanistan forms a secondary low pressure center to the south of the Zagros Mountains in Iran. The different pressures finally create an enhancement of the winds over the Arabian Gulf. They are often driven by fierce northwest wind from Iraq and the Persian gulf. These winds scour the dust and sand off the surface and loft it into the air and carry it wherever it goes. It may set in suddenly at any time, and generally lasts from one to five days, dying down at night and freshening again by day; however, in May to early July it continues almost without cessation. When you are outside walking in the wind, it is hot and dry and rusty. You can't really see the sand. It is very fine. But your lashes, your face and your hands will get dusty. Sometimes it is hard to breathe too. I coughed the first time I walked through it. Unfortunately this might trigger asthma and lung problem if you don't have it already. At certain places, you can't see anything. Like driving through haze. There is also orange tint at certain areas. So dense is the sand. The dust will also creep into your house adding extra household chore. Sandstorm enveloped Qatar last 2nd March 2007. Temperature in Qatar will continue to increase in Summer and can reach up to 50 deg.C.
Kawe in Doha
Nice place not to miss in Sg. Besi. Only 1/2 hour driving from city center KL but subject to traffic condition. Big lake and nice view with some watersport activity available there. One of the big bungalow there belongs to former PM. You can try Golden Horse Palace Hotel, 5/6 stars hotel. Some of big events were held there like conference, exhibition, etc. You can enjoy nice food and people and very good service.
Kawe in Doha
We are heading to Malaysia for a holiday. We have been before and really enjoyed it. We stayed at Sunway Beach Lagoon and the kids had a ball.
This time we are going to stay in KL for a short while (The Renaissance) then the Mines Resort for 3 nights.
Can anyone give me any further info on this resort. It looks great on the internet.
Many thanks.
don't know if we have that model here in kl... how about car prices there compared to malaysia?
Yerr mari marilah kita bercerita kat sini.. apa apa pun ok.. btw saya nak beli kereta suzuki alto tu, brapa harga yaa??
