Here’s an infographic from Loanstreet.

    Please show proof of RM0.70 bus fare, RM12.20 Starbucks, RM14 cinema and the most importantly RM4,492.30 kind of salary… Don’t bullshitting that living in Malaysia is cheap… If it’s really cheap, please migrate there…

    That’s not a good way to compare the standard of living in both countries. The standard of living in Malaysia is higher than Singapore. Don’t convert the currency. Imagine someone earning 4000 in respective countries. And look at the cost from this angle. Thinks about it.
