Penang is my hometown but on the mainland.I enjoyed living in this state since my children days.The state hs developed immensely.Natural beauty with greenery n the laid back environment are the great feelings😊

[@udaykumar-qw3db]

Hey. Quick question. What would you say is the cost of living for a couple and 1.5 year old? I was planning on moving Penang for a job opportunity. Thanks in advance.

[@penangmynewhome]

Ya, the Penang mainland is Penang also, and it does irritate me when people forget that.

Please make video of schools for children in penang. Which are good considerations for people with children in terms of schools, distance and cost?

[@penangmynewhome]

I will think about that. But until then, visit this page on my website with information on the international schools in Penang: www.penang-traveltips.com/international-schools.htm

What's the property puchase requirements for Penang under MM2H? Min. RM1MM? Can 2 properties @ RM500k each meet the requirements? From developer only? Overhang properties only?

[@penangmynewhome]

I did a video on the new MM2H guidelines, where I go through the requirements point by point over here:
ruclips.net/video/mSQ7dXQWlF0/видео.htmlsi=zB2Wxzx8q_iL4PDv
I am not an MM2H agent, but based on what I read in the requirement, it doesn't mention that you can. If you need an MM2H agent, let me know, and I will recommend one.

[@miclimo88]

[@penangmynewhome]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks so much 🙏 💓 ☺️

Is Penang safe?

[@penangmynewhome]

Penang is incredibly safe. I have no problem walking anywhere in Penang, even at night. I can say that it is a lot more safe today than it was perhaps 25 years ago, but it was a different time back then. Nowadays most of the locals are in the middle class, and even what was once considered low-income neighborhoods are undergoing gentrification; today we are more fearful of online crimes than one-the-road ones.

[@steventay5834]

Ok. I will migrate to Penang from Singapore

[@JenFrances-dc6ti]

Thank you

[@penangmynewhome]

You're welcome

[@muratsartas]

Please cut the very long into. We understand but a waste of time for watchers

[@penangmynewhome]

Thanks. Am now putting in time stamps so that you can go straight on to specific details. I found it long too! Am working to improve.
