Malaysia offers opportunities in hotels, resorts, security, tourism, retail, technology and marine leisure, especially in Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Langkawi, Kota Kinabalu and Johor. Island destinations such as Langkawi, Penang, Tioman and parts of Sabah provide a relaxed lifestyle, beaches, outdoor activities and multicultural communities, although costs and transport vary by location. Malaysian culture combines Malay, Chinese, Indian and indigenous influences, with English widely used in tourism and business. Accommodation, food and public transport are generally affordable compared with many international destinations. Foreign hires normally need an employer-sponsored Employment Pass, and the company must complete the required approval and immigration process before work begins.
