FYI, no such thing as dual citizenship. u either cancel ur existing to apply for a new one. But no 2 citizenship at the same time. But u can hold a few PR.

EU now is in financial difficulty, Euro currencies is weaking. Even ppl living in Euro is having difficulty looking for jobs.

For Malaysian, you will never get dual citizenship. When you wan to get another citizenship, you need to give up MY citizenship.

But some other country do allow their citizen have multiple citizenship but that is never apply to MY.

Unemployment is at an all time high now across Europe.

Have you got skills that are highly sought after or anything else (writer, entrepreneur etc) which makes you attractive to a country?

If you don't, it might be better for you to improve now and think about it later during the boom times.

I think it's engineering. For industrialised nations, engineers are always in demand. But I think you need to know the local language in order to work efficiently with everyone, unless you're planning to move to UK.

To work in EU countries, you need to be fluent in English and be able to speak French/Spanish.

Most companies will reject you on the spot if you do not even have limited skill in those languages. so brush up on your french!

In Germany, after 5 yrs (years as student counted with factor of 0.5), automatically get PR but not compulsory. Main obstacle is to get the first working permit. Some caveats though, namely, you need to have contributed into the social system, no criminal record etc.

Automatic PR after 1st year if you invest 1 million Euros and create 10 jobs.

Dual citizenship not allowed, only in very rare occasions.

Usually no problems with work permits if the company wants you badly enough. Which means pure meritocracy.
