Hey folks,

I'm an expatriate here in Malaysia and for the past four years that I've been here I always wanted to start a business with the same quality/style that you can find in my home country and set it up in a booming environment with an upscale atmosphere. I've finally finished a business plan and found a perfect location, now the few things that remains are funding.

What is the best way to go about grants up in the 30-60k area, does anyone have experience with this? My business partner is Malay if that makes any difference (probably does ). So far about half the funding needed has been secured and we are currently looking for a final investment.

This thread has been extremely informative, thank you everyone! Will definitely update on how the progress is going.
