[Copy link]
Post time 26-6-2008 11:41 PM | Show all posts |Read mode
Salam semua,

Tengah consider sama ada nak berpindah ke Bahrain, sebab my wife ada offer untuk kerja kat sana.

So nak mintak tolong dari sapa yg tau atau yg ada pengalaman tentang kos sara hidup kat sana.

Benda2 macam sewa rumah, utility bills, groceries dan jugak kos untuk hantar anak ke sekolah.

Thanks in advance.

Balas #1 z-b-i\ catat

aku tak penah le kesana, tapi kawan2 aku ada. duit dah tentu le jauh beza, RM1 = 1 dinar, rumah mahal RM70K setahun untuk kawasan miskin kena sewa setahun2, sekolah antarabangsa ada mahal juga tapi tak ada le sekolah malaysia sekolah filipin bangla barat2 tu ade , barang runcit semua ada waima belacan, sos cili malaysia sume ader... air murah, minyak murah .. situ syi'ah ye bukan sunni...

TAPI... kalau offer bagus lets say RM50K ape salahnya... kalau pergi sorang je dapat offer RM25 keatas dah oke ...

Dari apa yg aku check kat websites:

1 Bahrain Dinar = RM8.6

Sekolah antarabangsa lebih kurang 3000 BD / RM25000 setahun.

Nak tau estimates tentang bills, groceries, etc.

zbi,

kalau rumah fully furnish, bills dah termasuk dlm sewa....utk rumah unfurnish jer bills u kena byr sendiri pastu kena add 10% of rental.

sewa apartment 3 bilik fully furnish dlm BD700-800 sebln, ni kira rumah yg ok sgt lah buat masa ni sbb ramai owner tgh giler naikkan rental......pasal byr sewa lak so far x pernah lg dgr kena byr rental per year semua byr bulanan....

sewa keta BD150 sebulan utk yaris sedan, smlm baru tanya kat Budget

groceries pulak, process food mmg mahal mcm nugget & ayam sbb kat sini semua kena import dr saudi or UAE. Makan luar pon mahal gak McD's value meal BD1.5...kids meal 900 fils.......  briyani ayam 800 fils...... sharwarma 300 fils...... average mkn luar utk sorang dlm BD3-4 termasuk air, tp kat sini portion makanan dia byk, I selalu share jer makan ngan hb.....so nk jimat masak kat umah

minyak murah kat sini seliter 100 fils & 80 fils. Full tank utk lancer BD3.5 je

tuan rumah nk pindah dr mana, msia or england?

brader
your cost of living depends on your lifestyle beb. Biasanya kalau hang negotiate a work contract, hang punya prospective employer mesti produce detailed cost of living figures which are useful in helping you to decide whether the proposed job is financially attractive or not.  

Kalau hang talk about living in Manama mmg berat la cerita, mahal.  Duduk kat Riffa pun best gak. kalau hang suka quiet area, hang duduk la kat Aali. Zinj or Mahooz is nice too and slightly less expensive.  Aku duduk kat Jufair (kat sini mahal la sikit.) Tp kalau hang cari flat kat Adliya, rate can be very cheap, kalau BHD350 tu hang boleh la dapat decent 2 bdr flat.Qudaibiya, um al hassam, or hoora pun ok jugak.

Groceries tgk apa jenis food hang nak beli. food especially imported goods mmg mahal la.  banyak lagi cheaper locally and regionally produced foods that are of excellent quality. Beli je. Utilities actually kat Bahrain ni cheaper drp europe especially utk local population diorang, ada jugak government diorang subsidised. Tp kena ingat la bila tiba time summer, kena hati hati,  jgn pegi pasang aircond lama lama, set timer. Harga sure melambung lambung waktu ni. Phone line kat sini boleh la, tak mahal sbb government diorang nak encourage business so harga tak lah membunuh.

Baju kalau hang nak beli designer cloths mmg mahal so hang agak agak la nak run your lifestyle mcm mana to commensurate dgn apa yg company bg. Mcm aku ni lain sbb aku bujang, tu pasal aku kena bujang kat sini hahahaha (actually bujang lg tersiksa, gf asik mintak belanja hahaha)   Masuk tahun ni dah almost 3 tahun aku kat sini.   Conversion rate now 1 Bahraini Dinar = 2.67824 US Dollar (MYR 9.28802)


Kalau nak tulis panjang panjang tak nampak sgt impact cost of living, so let me put the impact in Bahraini Dinar againt USD/MYR.


1.  Rent for 2 Bdroom                                              BHD 700    USD 1820    MYR 6440
2.  Maintenance, Gas, Electricity, water                     BHD 150    USD   390    MYR 1380
3.  Food                                                                   BHD 400    USD 1040    MYR 3680
4.  Telefon                                                                BHD  70     USD  182     MYR  644


                                                            TOTAL         BHD 1320  USD 3432    MYR12,144


ni pun aku tak masuk expenses education, baju, misc, kalau masuk mau cecah MYR 25,000.  Nasib baik tak ada income tax kat Bahrain. And yg paling aku suka non-GCC expat dibenarkan buy property.


My advise utk your wife, pandai pandai la ask for the reasonable salary from her company.
