Any Singaporean expat based in Shanghai here?

i am considering a short term international assignment to shanghai.

Assuming accomodation is covered, what will be a reasonable per diem in RMB allowance based on the current living cost?

Greatful if anyone can help!

I was in Shanghai back in 2005 for about half a year and was given USD50 per diem. Accomodation and travelling costs were seperately covered.

Thanks dude! In addition, did you receive a monthly location allowance?
How often did you get to fly back home?

No location allowances.
Officially it was every 60 days but i went back every 45 or so days.

thanks. Even without the location allowance, I think you got a fair deal.
