The Best of KL's Expat Q&A! (Kuala Lumpur)

The Kuala Lumpur Forum on InterNations is an amazing place to find information and its rich and resourceful content has been not only a useful FAQ, but at times life changing too. Sometimes these content gets buried in the back pages of the Forum and value lost to new members who may not know of its existence, and of course not benefit from it. This thread is a collaborative effort to compile the qualitative content of the forum in a form of index. Do share your favourite threads/comments below, and I will include them in the master thread. Here are some examples of my favourites:

* I thank all contributors for their rich and resourceful information for KL!
