Living in Bangkok is the same as sinkieland....you got the most luxurious to the most cheap depending on what you can afford or budget.
Here in sinkieland we have people surviving living in 1 room flats and those living in sentosa cove as well.

Assuming everyone here is talking about the same level of living similar to sinkieland then. For SGD 1k you can have the same lifestyle as a sinkie hdb dweller creature comforts....Similar to a salaried worker of maybe 3500. Infact a more better lifestyle as you can take taxi as basic transport and not squeeze in the buses here. You can get rent a nice studio apartment, image how much would one here costs? You can afford to eat out in restaurants sometimes unlike sinkieland where you only can afford hawker centers. For the sex factor you can afford to get better grade there at cheaper rate, or similar to here you can find a Gf or go disco to pick up....much higher success compare to here when you roam the nightspots also.

u r right bro. it really depends what kind of lifestyle u wanna live. i've seen a one room apartment being shared by 4 to 5 people. every month they paid less than 1k baht on rental. 2 simple meals with public transport will not exceed 100 baht per day.

ultimately is up to u to choose a hiso or loso life. i belongs to the latter

Your analysis sums it up. But facts are a fresh grad in BKK from a good U like Chula commands about THB20-40K per month. In SG from NUS you can start about SGD5K.

quality of life can't be measured

After countless of trips in recent years and 2 months resident in Krung Thep, before migrate to CNX, YES Krung Thep is similar to sillypore standard, compare to the amount I spent at Krung Thep, I can afford to spend leisurely or "Sabai Sabai" here in CNX.

Taking a cab from Thong lor soi sip, to Nonthaburi, Bangkuay is like paying from my house to Orchard Tower, and best thing some honest taxi driver go by short cut way, which is cheaper by 80 baht compare to those who just wanna to earn 80baht more by going longer route then usual.

But one thing for sure the ladies here is X 100 better then what Butterfactory or Zouk has.

Which job earns a NUS fresh grad 5k or chula 40k? I will get my kid to study the required course.

Not sure abt Thai standard but over here, NUS or NTU at best 2800-3000 . Dont believe those newspapers saying big figures.

Out of curiosity, i have seen PRC grads trying to impress in china but in Thailand, do they go the extra miles ?

I think d'Artagnan bro is referring to the top 3% of the grads - which does not represent the actual population.

But a high average starting pay should be like what ahbengsony bro mentioned.

For Thailand, the annual bonus is quite high I think depending on which industies you are in. One of my decent Thai OL friend who works in the automobile line (not a sales role) got 6 months bonus last year - her first job and first bonus. She said Thai grad if possible want to work in oil&gas industry, next automobile.

Of cos she is only one sample Thai grad. And this cannot represent the true picture.
