Thanks for the tips! I'm in KL right now and I got the Prince Court health screening a few days ago. It was very comprehensive and affordable. I was quite satisfied.

I just went to the Prince Court Medical Centre in KL and they make Canada's Health care look like a 3rd world country... The high level specialist I spoke with (trained in UK) actually talks to you like a human being with A kind smile, the staff are friendly and the ultra modern equipment and level of medical sophistication blew my mind! It was worth every cent spent!

[@geodarnodan6750]

As a Malaysian, I agree that this is a nice country with some drawbacks. The advantage of living here is paying a third-world country price and getting almost a first-world quality of life. However, the drawback lies in the poor efficiency of the government sector and their attitude. The loose control of traffic by the police leads to many unlawful phenomena, such as double parking, parking almost in the middle of the road, causing traffic blockages, motorcyclists beating the traffic lights, and the police are doing nothing about it. I think if our authorities impose heavier restrictions and make more efforts, Malaysia will surely be a much better place.

As a Malaysian who has worked in the US, I became more appreciative of my country Malaysia after I returned home. Seriously, when I was in the US, close to half of my monthly wages went to home rental, health insurance and taxes, what the heck. I even became nervous sending my kids to school in the US seeing news of school shootings every few months. This was the same period of time when Sandy Hook elementary shooting happened. Even with health insurance, I felt extremely nervous thinking of the possibility of myself or any of family members getting sick knowing the insurance does not cover everything. Would I work there again, definitely not. Would I visit as a tourist, for sure.

I get so much smiles and so many hellos its actually insane. I've been spending most of my time in Thailand so I will also say, the food in Malaysia isn' t as good as the food in Thailand. But in general, the pros are that the people are so kind, I've had very good conversations with random people I've met in Grab or on the street or at cafes and everyone was very very kind. I've been told to please enjoy their country and have a great stay at least 3/4 times in the past day and a half of being here. I thought I was sold on Thailand but man, Malaysia has me on the fence. Great Country, great people, very clean and orderly, I haven't seen a single person be rude or disrespectful. Worth at least a visit if even just to see the Petronas Towers (which are stunning by the way). Thanks as always for the Insights Andrew and I'll be back in Malaysia for sure.

i had my first lockdown in KL on March 16 or 17 of 2020. They had about 300 cases at this time, and locked down the whole city. I have some pretty cool pics of walking through the city while it being a ghost town. My friend there lost 1 million in stock in his luxury fashion boutique, as they shut down the mall and stopped the air con. I left on one of the last planes going out there and had to go to KUL by train, as no taxi would take me without a mask - they were sold out everywhere.

[@SvengelskaBlondie]

6:50 That's one thing that would seal the deal for me, here in Sweden our healthcare has been frequently budgeted down since the 90's. Nowadays it can take months before you get a 10 minute visit with a doctor that barely gives half a sh!1, sometimes doesn't even check your medical journal and doesn't listen to you. Takes sometimes at least the same amount of time to get a follow up, if they can be bothered to do that. There's also an extreme reluctance to do basic tests, quite allot of horror stories where lack of testing results in cancer not being discovered until it's gotten beyond the point of being able to be treated.

[@EGO0808]

I agree with most of what Andrew states, but it isn’t all roses and sunshine in Malaysia. The legislation, policies and rules change all the time, it makes it in some ways unpredictable. Labuan as a taxfriendly destination is undergoing changes all the time, MM2H is changing, all this makes for an unpredictable situation, when moving wealth or oneself to Malaysia.

Hey Andrew thanks for making a video on my home country! I was born in Malaysia and lived in KL for 30 years before I decided to leave a couple of months ago. Totally agree with all the positives that you mentioned (though majority of the points pertain to mostly KL) Would also like to add : Great food (missing it every day!) The reason I left isn't really pertinent to most people, but with the new government, Malaysia - I feel, is slowly turning into Singapore, mostly from a personal liberties point of view. Which I realize is a weird thing to say since everyone view SG as the shining beacon of Asia - but the thing that made Malaysia a great place to live in, as a LOCAL, was the lack of enforcement on oppressive laws : As long as you kept your head down, lived in the posh parts of the country, (essentially lived like a tourist) don't talk about certain topics, they left you alone and you can live a pretty good life, sorta like Thailand, but better. And in the event you do get disturbed, you could pay it off and sort of buy your liberties, i.e. "soft freedom". But with the new government, police are given quotas and incentives (amongst many other factors) and it's causing a lot of real-life unhappiness in general. I don't want to get into too much specifics as to not dissuade people from giving Malaysia a chance, since for most people it's fine. Different strokes for different folks - in fact some would think the negatives I mentioned are actually positives in their world view. Viewers : Definitely consider Malaysia, a lot of great things. (Did I mention the FOOD?!!) ASEAN countries are generally tough on their citizens but lax on foreigners, especially westerners.

[@brianleon79]

I dont quite get you, how Malaysia is becoming like Singapore?😅 Whats wrong with Singapore?😅

[@sayurnara7311]

@brianleon79 hey Brian it's just a difference in our world views and priorities when it comes to country selection. (Absolute freedom of speech being one of mine) If you're happy in KL/SG then I'm glad you found the right place for you 😀 Having said that there are great people in both countries ☺️ I do frequent SG for holidays and back to KL whenever I'm missing the food. In fact I'll be back in KL for CNY

[@brianleon79]

I see. Is freedom of speech in Sg is that bad? 🥹 Is Malaysia towards that level? If its so, how would it caused by the current govt? 🥹

[@aumelb]

​@brianleon79 Singapore has had the same political party (People's Action Party) in power since 1959. It's effectively a one party state because PAP has always had an overwhelming majority of seats in the Parliament. Technically, other political parties do exist but they are not truly what one would call an opposition. Malaysia is a bit more democratic and allows for more plurality of opinion (for example, there are on ocassion public protests and demonstrations happening in Malaysia which are virtually unheard of in Singapore) but not by much.

[@sayurnara7311]

​@@brianleon79 it's one of those things probably not relevant to 90% of people, especially foreigners. It just was for me. Give both countries a chance, you might find the right one for you! The thing I've learned from this channel is to incorporate various countries to build a holistic plan for myself, which is what I'm doing. Malaysia for food/family, Singapore for shopping/vacation, the US & UK for business, Dubai for crypto stuff, and for longer stays I've found New Zealand and Argentina to be nice. Cambodia was a surprisingly positive experience. For shorter stays : Taiwan, Thailand & Bali. Still exploring every day to find the best place for me :)

Briefed the taxes. If your a US citizen and a tax resident of Malaysia there is No Tax Treaty Agreement. You will pay taxes on foreign income brought into Malaysia. Additionally understand like in Thailand that Tax Rate is created for someone earning approximately 3 times less. This means you will Easily jump into the higher tax rates. This is in addition to the US Taxes you pay.

I heard that Malaysia had planned to tax remittance brought into the country starting in 2022 but decided later to postpone this to 2025 or 2026. If they do decide to implement this tax, it could be a deal breaker. If there is no tax treaty between Malaysia and the USA, I was told the rate imposed is 30% which is rather high. Not sure if the progressive tax rates for the locals will apply to foreigners. Do you know how the taxes are implemented for foreigners?

Previously I though that I would never be able to attend your conferences but as I'm scaling my business and property portfolio - Be sure that we'll meet in the near future. Thank you for your amazing work, you are the best in your field without any doubts! / Anders Sebastian

Louder Andrew! Malaysians tend to look down upon our own country and put the West on a pedestal. Malaysia has its flaws just like anywhere else but the issues we face are pretty minor. The public healthcare is actually good and life is generally easy and not restrictive. Having spent 4 years in Germany recently, the grass is not greener at least according to my experience. Malaysia treats people with wealth well and this should be viewed as a good thing rather than a bad thing. Unlike countries like Germany which are jealous and punish successful people with ridiculous laws. I think Malaysians should pause and think about what we can do for the country 🇲🇾such as acquiring more skills to solve problems which will help with the pay instead of sitting down wasting time on social media and complaining… The Malaysian govt is actually pretty soft on the people and quite people-centric when you consider how EU countries milk their citizens dry of tax money! Malaysia gives discounts for traffic fines like what the hell 😂

Hello Just wondering if you will do a podcast on new taxes of overseas income in Malaysia? By the way - do you do any get together in KL? Thank you

[@Bingpot_Cowabunga]

To clarify, the revised MM2H scheme isn’t finalised yet, right? There may be further requirements to be added? And, as of now, we can’t apply for the scheme? So this video, whilst informative, isn’t based on the defined MM2H scheme? Thanks!

[@BobSmith-br7hk]

Is Malaysia going to bring in worldwide taxation starting in 2027?

Hi, Good video ! I’ve heard a lot of positives on Malaysia but was wondering about the influence of PAS and conservative Islam growing in the northern parts of the country. Would this affect the political,social,economic and therefore financial aspects of the city KL overall? Will KL remain to be an outlier in the country as an international city or is it susceptible to this kind of populism?

i wish to move and live in Kwala Lumpur but the issue of high pollution worries me. Is this problem less severe than before?

Yeah don't be overthinking. Massive traffic jams, pollutions etc. Singapore & thailand would be better for you

Malaysian people are nice, indeed. It’s the only Moo$lim country I would live. The problem with Kuala Lumpur is: it’s not a vibrant city. It doesn’t have attractions like Bangkok or Ho Chi Minh City. If you are single, KL and Penang might not be the right places to live.

[@geodarnodan6750]

As a Malaysian, I agree that this is a nice country with some drawbacks. The advantage of living here is paying a third-world country price and getting a first-world quality of life. However, the drawback lies in the poor efficiency of the government sector and their attitude. The loose control of traffic by the police leads to many unlawful phenomena, such as double parking, parking almost in the middle of the road, causing traffic blockages, motorcyclists beating the traffic lights, and the police are doing nothing about it. I think if our authorities impose heavier restrictions and make more efforts, Malaysia will surely be a much better place.

This is the working attitude of the majority race. The working culture and system in civil service makes it worse.

With all the medical tests and various physicians visits you have mentioned in the video, it would cost well over $10,000 in the US. Cost of healthcare is out of controlled and even with health insurance, it isnt enought to cover you! Your health could bankrupt you in the US!

[@Daniel_RG]

LOL, of course not! You think the price for a medical checkup for people under 40 is $10,000 USD in the US? 😂 "According to the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, the national average price for a physical is around $199 for people without insurance".

[@dougscott188]

@@Daniel_RGyour nuts. Healthcare in USA is insanely expensive. And in many instances the quality of care is horrible unless you at a high quality university or research hospital. You most definitely can go broke in USA with a single healthcare emergency if you are typical middle class person. Rich no because you can’t pay for it and poor no because the government will pay for it. I had a friend recents who almost lost everything he had.

[@Daniel_RG]

@@dougscott188 Yeah, but that's not the point. Is it expensive? Yes, it can get very expensive, particularly for the uninsured during emergencies. Is it "$10,000 for a medical checkup"? No, on average you would pay about $199 USD for that $179 physical in Malaysia.

@@dougscott188 Get real? People from all over the world travel to the US for medical care! 😂 And your rosy assumptions about the Malaysian healthcare system are just naïve: "systemic issues continue to plague Malaysia’s ailing health care system, including insufficient health care professionals like doctors and nurses, linked to the contract system; lacking infrastructure; inadequate and unsustainable health care financing; and the high prevalence of chronic disease in Malaysia" not to mention "a toxic working culture In public hospitals".
