      Guess why? New York sucks. Malaysia rocks. ;) I've lived in New York and it totally sucks. Cold, high tax, rampant crime. The literal only thing New York can provide you with is a high salary but it comes with an extreme price of safety.

    Wow. I was listening every seconds of your GUYS amazing thoughts of moving from NYC to KL. Seems true. Here a bit slower. It could be bad and it could be good at the same time as well. We just don't take it for granted. We take work seriously even at slower pace. In Malaysia, family is number one. That's why our working culture a bit different. Malaysia are good for families activities and living... Can't wait to watch next episode

    M’sia is a very under rated country. It’s a lot of charm, developed cities with sky scrapers and mega malls in KL, PJ etc; beaches and islands in East Coast, Langkawi, Redang, Sipadan etc; hill resorts like Genting, Cameron Highlands, Fraser!
    This is making me want to move back to M’sia (I’ve been in SG for years) which I intend to do so after I retire. Pace is slower in M’sia compared to the fast pace in SG!
    I personally prefer KL to MNL, like some one rightfully pointed out, a rather wide divide between the ultra rich and poor in the Phil. KL will be a better Asian city and base to start with
