Hi all,


I have a few questions regarding cost of living in KL. My brother -in-law has got a offer to work in KL.he is a bachelor can anyone tell how much monthly income is needed to stay in Kl and cover expenses like housing,transport,food and other expenses.

I would also like to know if anyone has about this company called Maxis Comm i beleive it is mobile service provider, if it has good reputation as we don't know anybody in malayasia so we r not in a position to enquire all these things. i would be very grateful if anyone could let me know the details.


Thanks in advance

Ramya,
Cost of living in KL depends on the area you live & your style of living. Even if you are shoe string in budget, you need at least RM 3000-4000. Maxis comm is mobile service company & is fairly good company. It will be convenient it your brother has a car- easyto move around.
1 room rent - 500- 600 (one room only)
Food - Rm 500 (v.simple)
Transport - RM 500
Provisions & personal expense - RM 500
Petrol and misc- RM 500
This is not based on lavish style.

Jaya,

Thanks a lot. The company is providing a fully furnished apartment and a car to my brother-in-law for travel from home to office and other official purposes and i think he will be able to manage food also by cooking himself.So Rm 3000-4000 should be sufficient and may be he can manage to save a little.
thanks a lot as what u have said would enable us to decide if he can take the offer.

thanks once again
