Not sure what industry you are in - as you mention switching back to a job in India. From the salary level, it sounds like it is in the service or construction industry and you would be a foreign worker. Veg food would cost around RM6-10 per meal from a Makan stall. Malaysian is about 60% more expensive than most of India and prices rising fast.

Have they asked you to pay any money?聽 For example to get a work permit or for accommodation?聽 If so it is a JOB SCAM.

Way too low. Single Malaysians can't live in KL on that long term (unless you are 22 and don't mind 6 to a flat share etc)

Hi,
Inquire about the type of visa they will sponsor and the color of the visa too. By that you can understand the industry and the minimum salary you are legally authorized to get.

What i understand in IT industry as network engineers, they have to give you 5000 salary per mnth minimum. So 3500 doesnt sound legal.
