Living in Malaysia

We're often asked what it's like to live in Malaysia, and here are just a few reasons why those who come here fall in love with this amazing country and find it hard to leave:

Located in the heart of Kuala Lumpur (KL), the capital of Malaysia, ISKL offers expatriates a unique opportunity to experience one of the world’s most vibrant, dynamic, and culturally diverse countries. Malaysia is renowned for its welcoming people, diverse cultural celebrations, and an amazing variety of fabulous food, making it a fantastic place to live and work.

Our wonderful host country offers a high standard of living and excellent quality of life with its year-round tropical climate, world-class health care, and access to travel throughout the region.

While Malaysia's official language is Bahasa Melayu (Malay), English is widely spoken, and many Malaysians are multilingual, speaking Chinese, Tamil, and a range of other languages.

For nature lovers, Malaysia is a paradise with its stunning reefs, lush rainforests, and diverse wildlife.

Adventurers will be happy to know that Kuala Lumpur is a major travel hub, providing easy access to exciting destinations throughout the region. Looking for a weekend away? Destinations such as Bali, Cambodia, Thailand, Singapore, and Vietnam (to name just a few) are all within easy reach!
