Since you are gonna do PhD, I’m sure you will be associated with some project. Funding from tat project will be sufficient to manage your expenses as well as tuition fee. Also, you can work outside provided that your passport should be endorsed with student visa along with work permit. You can work for 20hrs/week(maybe more than that).
But when I check the EMGS site they mentioned we can work only 20/hrs /week during semester break.
Can I have student visa and Work permit at the same time.Where I can get more information. Please advice me further. Tq.
9. Can I work while on a student pass?
All international students studying at public or private higher education institutions are allowed to work part-time for a maximum of 20 hours per week ONLY during semester breaks or holidays of more than 7 days at restaurants, petrol kiosks, mini markets and hotels as long as their student passes remain valid. Please note that prior approval from the Department of Immigration is required.
International students are NOT permitted to work as cashiers. In addition, in the hotel sector, international students are NOT allowed to work as singers, masseurs, musicians or GROs (Guest Relation Officers). International students are not allowed to engage in any job or activity deemed to be immoral.
Applications to work part time must be made through the educational institution at which the international students are enrolled. The international student needs to be present with the representative of the education institution at the Immigration Department of Malaysia in order to submit an application for part time work.
