First of all, do you plan to bring your family here with you, most likely yes, than the offer is just ok. You will save a bit. Housing rent is the most expensive in GCC for Qatar, if you are looking for a decent living for a two bedroom in a compound, you are looking around QR5,500 to 7,500 within Doha City. You will need a car, so most likely, you will rent one, budget for QR 2,000 for renting a small car + petrol. Food and miscellaneous spending may take up QR 4,000 to 5,000 upwards for your family (depending on the size). Two mobile phone service with 1 GB Data + Mosaic (Internet for home use + digital TV) with Asia International Channels will run you about QR700. All this is monthly. With all this in mind, you might be able to save a little. The thing is, are you better off than living in Malaysia or being here and saving a little. BTW, I forgot schools or nursery (depending on the age of your kids), it is expensive in Qatar. If you factor that in, then you might not even save!
