Tips and Advice on Malaysia from Your Fellow South Korean Expats

Obviously, expat life in Malaysia goes well beyond shipping your belongings and taking care of red tape. Socializing with fellow Koreans is an important facet of living abroad and can be a huge stepping stone in getting to know the Malaysian mentality and way of life. Koreans in Malaysia are a part of our community, calling cities such as Kuantan, George Town, Kuala Lumpur, and many others home. You can use InterNations to look for fellow Koreans in Kuala Lumpur, for example.
