Destination Guide

Malaysia offers hospitality opportunities in Kuala Lumpur, Putrajaya, Penang, Langkawi, Kota Kinabalu and other resort destinations. Bar and hotel professionals can find work in international chains, beach resorts, restaurants and entertainment venues, although major cities usually offer more year-round positions. The culture is multicultural, with Malay, Chinese, Indian and indigenous influences; English is widely used in tourism, while Malay is the national language. Lifestyle costs are moderate, food is diverse and public transport is strongest around Kuala Lumpur. Malaysia is not one island but a country spanning the Malay Peninsula and Borneo, with many attractive islands and coastal areas. Foreign employees normally require an employer-sponsored Employment Pass, and the employer handles much of the application process. Check current immigration rules before relocating. Bring appropriate qualifications, references and proof of experience, and expect a warm, humid climate.
