5 kilos of Jasmine rice is 27SR. Thats not cooked yet. I think a loaf of bread costs 3SR

My company provided my logging, cant help you there.

well, anywhere you go, taxi will ask from 15 to 20 SR depending on distance. If you ride taxi with other passengers, meaning public transport, it will cost 3SR.

I recommend you ask for travel allowance or company to drive you if your company puts you too far from your living accommodation.

2500SR? What line of work? If its office work like mine, probably ok, but I asked for 3000SR. I guess if it were me, I could manage 2500, but its a squeeze...

Good luck.
