Working in China (Shenzhen)

edwin96 — Mon, 03 Aug 2020 19:58:54 +0800

Hi all sifus here,

Looking for people that have experience working in China, especially in Shenzhen

I quit my job and finished my notice period just week before MCO and had been struggling to find a job until now.
Recently only start getting calls from recruiter and company I applied for, so for those who still looking for jobs during this pandemic, don't give up yet.
Has about 2 years of working experiences including part time and internship.

Recently interviewed with a China company based in Shenzhen.
After 2 interviews, they decided to give me a chance and hire me, but will work from home now until Government allow us to travel to China, then will move to Shenzhen and work there.

So far the salary is okay for me since I will work from home until I am able to travel, then my salary will get adjusted.

Need some tips and advice for those who has experiences working in China or friends that work in Shenzhen:

1. The living cost there, especially room rental cost and eating cost. I will get allocation fees when I relocate to China. Just want to know roughly how much each month.
2. Environment
3. Income Tax? EPF needs to self contribute right?
4. Any experience or tips also can share share with me.

Hope any sifus here can share their experiences with me.

Thanks so much.

Minor Accident (Scratches and dents)

Hi all sifus here, need advice from you all. I rarely got involved in accident but this time macam very serious.

Today was a really bad day, heavy rain in the morning and i accidentally hit an Axia when signalling and turning left, didn't realize the car was coming and accidentally hit an Axia.

Because it was raining really heavy and my phone not waterproof la so I come down with an umbrella and check my car and her car condition. My car was alright and her car got scratches and dents.

Just want to do some price check.

I know definitely the front have to ketuk and spray but do the door there (the third picture) have to spray too? or can polish or touch up. My estimation total cost will be around Rm300 ~ 500 or will be higher? Got any shops near Puchong can recommend?

Luckily my car only small scratches so I no need spend extra money to fix my car.
