Why Malaysia?
Food Affordability
We are huge on our food culture. Malaysia is one of
those countries where if you find yourself hungry at
three in the morning, there are bound to be places
still open for service! We often describe ourselves
as a ‘big melting pot’, and our delicious food
reflects the multi-ethnic makeup of our population. The cost of living in Malaysia is comparatively
much lower than that of Western countries and
Japan. On a reasonable budget, you can cover
your living and entertainment costs, and have
money left to travel.
Accessibility Weather
You will find it easy to use our public transport
network system to get around town. Otherwise,
there are ridesharing apps which you can rely on.
Apart from the Kuala Lumpur International Airport,
there is also the Subang Skypark Terminal to get
you in and out of the country! Malaysia enjoys tropical weather all year round
where it is hot and humid, interspersed with
tropical rain showers. The climate is very pleasant
and the weather is characterised by warm sunny
days and slightly cooler nights, making Malaysia
a great place to live.
