Serious Feedback needed on SG Salary

Mod: please help to move the thread if it is inappropriate to post here.

Hi all,

Need some feedback from all those expert that currently working in SG, especially in IT.

I am working in IT field in Malaysia right now, with a basic of RM XXXX.
I had offered by a SG company with a SGD XXXX as a data engineer. (my expected put SGD XXXX)
I know i low ball my salary, but if i put exact 1:1, i concern they may turn me down since i am not really expertise in those niche fields

It was a contact roles, with a 13 months salary.
SGD XXXX * 13 = SGDXX
so if SGD XX/12 equal to each month SGD XX
With this calculation from HR, they claim they are paying me what i expected.

I plan to negotiate with them to meet my expected salary.
Worst case, just accept it since XX is not so bad, just not really meet my expectation.

Wanna get some input from expert here, for a 7 years working experience, is the salary offered considered decent in SG?
Or i am actually asking to low for my experience for a normal IT data engineer.

Thanks in advance.
