Destination Guide

Malaysia offers opportunities in finance, shared services, logistics, technology, manufacturing, tourism, and international business, particularly around Kuala Lumpur, Selangor, Penang, and Johor. Popular islands include Penang, Langkawi, Tioman, and parts of Sabah and Sarawak, each offering different lifestyles, from urban amenities to beaches and outdoor activities. The culture is multicultural, with Malay, Chinese, Indian, Indigenous, and international influences. English is widely used in business, while Malay is the national language. Living costs vary; Kuala Lumpur is generally more expensive than smaller cities, although public transport and food can be affordable. Interns should confirm whether the employer arranges the required internship or employment pass, as foreign nationals normally need immigration approval before working. Plan accommodation, health insurance, transport, and document legalization early, and check current Malaysian immigration rules before relocating.
