In a now-deleted Facebook post, a former lecturer from Malaysia revealed a remarkable financial turnaround by working as a cleaner in Singapore. The anonymous individual, who used to earn RM1,900 as a lecturer, shared that they now make RM11,000 monthly as a cleaner in Singapore.
The former lecturer, who had previously worked at a private higher education institution (IPTS) in Malaysia for five years, expressed financial struggles due to the increasing cost of living and a stagnant salary. The rising prices of goods left them short of funds before the month's end, prompting the search for alternative employment.

After securing a position as a cleaner with a monthly income of RM11,000, they saw a significant improvement in their financial situation. The decision to work in Singapore was described as a "shortcut" to overcoming financial challenges.
While the Facebook post has been deleted, screenshots circulating online have sparked discussions about the financial disparities and opportunities for better income in different countries. The former lecturer concluded their post by encouraging others facing similar financial predicaments to consider seeking employment in Singapore, emphasizing the higher wages.
