- A 2022 study by the Malaysian authorities found that about two-thirds of Malaysians living and working in Singapore earn a gross salary of between S$1,500 and S$3,599
- And about three-quarters of them were skilled or semi-skilled, with the highest earner drawing a gross monthly salary of S$18,000
- Malaysian authorities flagged a "brain drain" as a concern for the nation, and urged a push to ensure Malaysians return to their homeland after work experience abroad
- Key reasons Malaysians opt to work in Singapore and Brunei include enhanced job prospects, favourable working conditions, attractive salaries and advantageous exchange rates
Amid concerns of a "brain drain" of skilled workers leaving Malaysia, an official study into Malaysians living in Singapore has found that two-thirds of those living and working here earn a gross salary of S$1,500 to S$3,599 a month.
It also found that almost one in five Malaysian workers living here, or 18.5 per cent, earn S$3,600 to S$9,999 a month while the highest gross monthly salary is S$18,000 a month. About 1.2 per cent earn S$10,000 to S$17,999
The study, conducted in 2022, also said that 38 per cent of Malaysians here are employed. The rest are engaged in activities such as business, research and education, or are married to a Singaporean.
Of those in a job, nearly three in four, or 74 per cent, are skilled or semi-skilled, said the study put out on Monday (Feb 19) by the Department of Statistics Malaysia, an agency under the Prime Minister’s Department, and the Ministry of Economy.
A majority, or 62 per cent, of Malaysians living here are male.

The Singapore study did not indicate how many Malaysians living in Singapore were surveyed.
It is believed to the first study of its type. TODAY has asked the Malaysian authorities if any similar study has previously been produced.
The trends identified in the Brunei study were broadly similar to those in the Singapore.
The study on the nation bordering the East Malaysian state of Sarawak showed that 92 per cent of Malaysians who live and work there are skilled or semi-skilled, and with 50 per cent of the Malaysian diaspora in Brunei being there for work.

WHY IT MATTERS
The media statement attached to the study touched on the pros and cons of the findings.One key finding is that, by and large, Malaysians have the option of selecting employment opportunities abroad.
“Recognition of Malaysian education on the global stage facilitates the upward mobility of individuals with a fundamental educational background in SPM, allowing them to progress from low-skilled positions to semi-skilled or skilled in Singapore and Brunei.”
The SPM is the Malaysian Certificate of Education, a national exam that all fifth-form secondary school students in Malaysia sit for, and can be seen as the equivalent of the O-Levels in Singapore.
Yeah...so must study SPM now...can have priority for lunch bro...queue shorter and bigger lunch set tooNothing wrong they were all invited for lunch.
Just tax the money returning to Malaysia. Fair deal.
No matter the differences, each is only a fellow Human, more so our neighbor.
Singapore had NEVER sought a policy based upon 'beggar thy neighbor', but had tried many attempts over years to assist our neighbors to share in the wealth & potential of our Nation & region. Our founding father - the late LKY cried when our Nation was booted out from the Malaysian Federation, not because he was left with a mere piece of rock to survive, but loss of the potential to lead the Federation to GREATNESS, as EQUAL BEINGS.
After the tears, he & his great team as well as our Forefathers, simply rolled up our sleeves, thru intelligence, hardwork & sacrifices, gave us ALL citizens our todays thru honoring our sacred National Pledge, & even opportunities to our neighbors, regardless of race, language or religion, to put food on the table for all of our loved ones....
The insignificant nobody me have no wish to disparage our neighbors. It is not me...
Truth stands unshakable on its own pedestal. Far too many of their leaders used the racial & religion card to remain in horrifying corrupted power....Whenever citizens seek for solutions, they are faced with pacification words of 'Insha Allah' - will of God, by authorities & village morons whom pronounced themselves not even as religious teachers, but with POWERS as prophets on Earth to lead Muslims when Prophet Muhammad already claimed - he was the last DIVINE prophet. For the non-Muslims who disagree, they are then condemned as INFIDELS, & thus the regression & decay of a nation, while those in power reaped HUGE FINANCIAL gains & lifestyles beyond the ordinary at the expense of hardworking & even uneducated & unemployed citizens...
I have no wish to offend & apologize if any is offended. We Humans can no longer change the past, but we can still change the future. And the future lays in the current Singapore Johor Growth zone - to provide even MORE Malaysians & Singaporeans from ALL races to join in to make it a success for everyone, from leaders to security forces to ordinary citizens, to put food on the table thru honest work for themselves & loved ones, regardless of race, language or religion.
I bid all the true Insha Allah, from a TRUE GOD. all the best, & not that from the gods that some political & religious whom deem themselves as gods on Earth are.

I dunno what the fuss is about. Even malay actor P raMlee, who hailes from Penang, went to singapore in search of opportunitues in the 1950's.
And when we split, he returned home only to be sidelined and ignored by the administrators and he died a pauper.
