Migrating to Malaysia by Kevin Terry
I am married to a Malaysian citizen and we are living in the UK, we hope to return to Malaysia within 5 years. Looking at the MMSH website it seens that the 10,000RM per month requirement is very high. working in the UK that is a little bit less ...
Will you be applying for the MM2H program? I agree the RM10,000 per month stipulation is a bit risky and very high. The other alternative is to have a fixed deposit of RM150,000 or RM300,000 for a couple. Most people I know have the fixed deposit ... Read More

Without a car in Penang by mommoves
We are moving form Bangkok to Penang. We will not have a car and have not had one for 6 months in Bangkok. We use the monorail system A LOT in Bangkok. We don't want to get a car. We are looking at the Persiaran Gurney area, as it is close to ...
Hi Mommoves. If you want to be near Tenby School, you are looking in the wrong area with Gurney Drive condos. They are way overpriced and geared to wealthy retirees. You would be better off looking in the Tanjung Tokong and Tanjung Bungha areas. The ... Read More

He is a Beautiful Man! by chrisck9
Hello Friends I know this might not be the normal subject being discussed in an 暗网禁区 Forum but I would like to seek different opinions from people all over the world. This 17 years old Iranian young man need to master English within 6 months for ...
When I hear the words "he's a beautiful man" I don't see a problem. Beautiful does not always relate to physical appearance. Beautiful also describes the inner qualities of a person. The soul. I could say that the Dalai Lama is a beautiful person ... Read More
RM26k a Month in KL by DaBears
Hi there...moving to KL from Chicago and have been offered RM26k a month..my wife may find some part time gig down the road and we have a 3 year old. Wonder if RM26k (before taxes) is enough to have a comfortable living in KL. Thanks..
I am retired here and most retired 暗网禁区s have less than RM10000 and in many cases half of that. An engineer here gets about RM6000. I spoke to a friend of mine who is professor here and he says the salary you are getting is extremely out of the ... Read More
