[@leopoldbourne8444]

This couple of well travelled people really nailed it. I am Australian and 75 and have lived in north Thailand for 16 years. I feel at home here as much as any foreigner could, and I love Thailand. However Thailand is a very old country, and no matter how good your Thai (and mine is not good) you cannot feel a sense of belonging, although Thai people are kind and generous. Malaysia is a new country with a sense of infinite possibility. With the widespread use of English and the former British connection I can easily feel at home. In addition Bahasa Malaysia is a much easier language to learn then Thai. I have spent a lot of time in India and I guarantee Indian food in Malaysia is the best in the world. I am solvent, financially secure, and can well afford to buy a property in Malaysia and support myself in comfort. If the Malaysian govt. would revise the MM2H rules in a sensible way, I will apply to move, although KL is much more expensive than Chiang Mai where I live. I hope the revision will come soon because although I am very fit and healthy, at 75 how many more years of active life do I have left?

[@andrewtaylor4558]

Best of luck to you!

[@jayv5578]

If you are white non Muslim.,stay away...😅

[@azharidris7092]

good grief.. you're spring Chicken compare to that 100 year man that came last in the London marathon..

[@leopoldbourne8444]

​@@azharidris7092 Jokes aside, I will be frank with you. I am a 75 year old gym rat. ie I spend 1.5 hours lifting weights for 3 days, followed by one recovery day, on a continuous cycle. I could not run a marathon, but on present indications I may have another 20 years of active life. I know what I am doing after 50 years of training. Don't care what anyone thinks about that, but I would like to spend those 20 years in Malaysia. Australia is only feasible if one is quite wealthy, or on the other hand have less resources then me and will be looked after by the social security system. Thailand is a great country, but I would like a change and think that Malaysia is the place. I will always be an Australian, but have grown out of nationalism and idealism about my home country, or indeed any country. It is a mixture of personal inclination, available resources, and the self knowledge one gains from a long life. However, whether things work out the way I want is not entirely up to me. We are all dependant to a degree on government policy, wherever we live or want to live.

[@TheWizcakes]

All the best.☺️

[@zulkifliibrahim4834]

I did mention earlier in one of the videos that my ex-boss was an American who formerly came here under the Peacecorps programme in the late ‘60s. He later resided here and married a local and later on got his citizenship after 20 years and reverted to Islam. He died in 2018. I remembered going for a dinner at his place in Petaling Jaya and saw a bottle of acar (Malaysian delicacy eaten with rice) labelled OPP. I asked what does it stand for.. He replied, “Orang Putih Pendek”. Meaning, short white man in reference to his height. He made the acar. Al-fatihah..

[@RayMak]

Not cheesy at all. As a Malaysian, I love everyone here too. People are so warm. Wait… his name is Human!? Lolllll

As a family from California looking to take their purchasing power outside of the US, I keep seeing suggestions to look more into Malaysia for investment. This might be the most helpful video for me on having a home in Malaysia. The backgrounds on the guest have great context. We’re looking for diversity, good K-12 schools, and safety. We will live 50% in California and 50% in Malaysia to start off for first 2 years. I will keep researching. Thank you so much for these video uploads.

[@andrewtaylor4558]

Thanks for watching! 🤗

Andrew, I would encourage you to start an immigration to Malaysia consultancy with the experience you've accumulated. 😅 As a Malaysian expat living overseas I always long to return to Malaysia. Your videos salved my yearning to return.

[@warrenlim2175]

Love my weekly Friday Andrew video. And as always, the best videos are when he is interviewing or being interviewed. Andrew, you mentioned you liked Ipoh. Hopefully you can do a video of Ipoh one day. My wife is from Ipoh and that would really make her day!

Thank you for this video. Wonderful interview with your friends. What a lovely couple. I think it would be more interesting to know from the couple about the cost of living in Dubai and Switzerland where they have lived compared to KL, Malaysia. All the best to all of you guys living in Malaysia especially to you Andrew. The fireplace display in your living room looks very nice and cozy for Christmas.

[@Yasin_Affandi]

I strongly feel that all the foreign participants from previous MM2H program should be allowed to stay in Malaysia even when it's been revised.

[@andrewtaylor4558]

Glad you enjoyed it!

Oh, we can. At least for now.

[@Yasin_Affandi]

@@andrewtaylor4558 😀

[@Yasin_Affandi]

@@andrewtaylor4558 I mean for the distance future, not just for now, it's not a smart move to revise the program drastically, many are genuine with their intentions to live in Malaysia. Besides, Earl Grey wants to stay with you in Malaysia for good. He made that wish while napping under the Christmas tree. 😀

[@tg988]

There is a small population from the middle east especially from Iran. They can be found everywhere in KL especially in Ampang area. From KZbin channel of Ken Abroad, Germans are cool but adventurous people with big curiosity. The couple seems wealthy and could probably opt for Malaysian Premium Visa Programme (PVIP) for a period of 20 years. The criteria: - no minimum stay period. - USD42,900 (RM200,000) participation fees main applicant and USD21,450 (RM100,000) for dependent per person. - USD8,600 (RM40,000) income per month. - USD214,500 (RM1 million) FD - Annual fee of USD429 (RM2,000)

You're considered as lucky participants to be selected for MM2H programe.. This group makes you as elite and respectful residents in Malaysia 🇲🇾👍😊

[@leopoldbourne8444]

One of the things I like about Malaysia is that when one spends substantial time there, conversations soon get beyond the standard patriotic rhetoric. In other words the locals become more frank about their discontents and dissatisfaction a with their country. That is not a weakness, but a sign of growing maturity, since all countries could do with improvement. For all its developed education system, I do not find Singaporeans any more advanced in this respect. Many if not most people there are still a bit stunned by their success, and tend to paper over the cracks when talking to foreigners. Personally I am more than happy to be totally frank about Australia, on the positive and negative side, especially with Malaysians, because I know many still aspire to move there. There are always gains and losses when moving to another country. I am 75 and do not live in Australia anymore. However, I had Malaysian friends in Australia even when I was a teenager. Ditto Singaporeans, but they no longer need Australia for education or economic opportunity.

[@jayv5578]

Really.. ??? We are getting our children out of Malaysia...😂😂😂

[@mkleng]

@@jayv5578 That’s ok. To each their own but if you’re going to a western country, you’ll probably regret it. I’ve gone to the US, Aust and now in the UK. They are all not doing so well in fact, economy and productivity is going backwards. And there are a lot of intricacies and subtleties about working in these countries that all Asians should really know about BEFORE embarking on their emigration to avoid regret. Well, out of these three, Aust is prob safest. Still, reconsider. If you’re going to Singapore, that’s great but really costly. So, again, to each their own :)

[@shahrulazmi2815]

I’m a Malaysian and I lived in the UK for over 25 years. I returned to Malaysia about 7 years ago. I had a great life in the UK but quality of life is so much better in Malaysia because your money just go so much further if you avoid buying imported branded goods. If you have any plan of returning to your own country or moving out of Malaysia one day though you should try to keep a property abroad. If you don’t, it will be quite hard to earn enough ringgits to buy a foreign property in the future. A lot of Malaysians who never lived abroad for prolonged period always think moving abroad is so great but they’ve never really faced the reality of mundane living abroad. Grass always greener on the other side I guess. Welcome to Malaysia in the future @mkleng !

[@mkleng]

@@shahrulazmi2815 totally agree. Wow.. 25 years! Respect! I’m still in London, so far for 17 years. Right now going home to Malaysia for Christmas holidays but decided to leave the UK next year. I have property in London so I think it’ll help. It’ll be great if we connect! 😊
