every few months price go up

i have a client sold her business in KL for 200k then move to sibu to operate the same shop.

her business profit is better in Sibu even revenue is not as high as KL.
and she could save more in Sibu.

i prefer kk. more things to do. islands, mountains, imago mall like a mini midvalley, direct flight for holiday to japang,korea, definitely better food (some cant even find in kl)
But....
a bit more expensive than kch. if you're used to kl then its not shocking.
a bit less safe. I remember walking into centrepoint a few years back and feeling like i could get robbed at every corner (although nothing happened). fights in centrepoint is not unheard of. some kampung air areas even polis dun go in. its fine if you avoid a few places.
And....
everything moves at a snails pace. line up in Giant also dem slow compared to kl.
But generally ppl are friendly.

global? bro, i drove around at night in kk and wondered why its so dark, not like in kl you can a lot of times drive without lights. Just a stark contrast that i noticed.
i'd say kk is closer to malacca than to penang.
when i first went there to work in the 90s we took a drive in town on the first day. after 15mins, huh? thats it?
now of course its bigger but i believe subang+usj is bigger than kk.

You wanna move anywhere, better visit one or 2 weeks and look see first.

how long can oil and timber last? petronas says in. 2019 only last 10 years. Assuming a more conservative estimate i give 15-20 years. Probably retiring there is ok but state govt probably is cash-strapped to run public services , infrastructure and road maintenance

Kuching (Cat) City got VivaCity Megamall, The Boulevard, The Spring, AEON Kuching Central, and Plaza Merdeka. All huge mall complexes that can rival malls in major cities.

Kuching is like Penang where the Chinese community still hold majority of its economic strength. Most of the supermarkets and shops you go to many signs in Chinese where many of its population attended SJKC.
These are the last remaining stronghold of Chinese populated cities in Malaysia.

To settle down mid 40s maybe cool

You do realized all these are secondary domestic business activities spurred by primary industry of oil and gas. Penang has MNCs doing assembly manufacturing. You need hard currency earnings to pay for import of essential goods and services.

Niama you live upperclass lifestyle then complain expensive, move where also will be expensive one lah

Cheong kk of coz many from everywhere, ask 2feidei for detail.

They don't teach real history in school. Malaysia is a Federation composing of 3 separate area/nation. Formed under the Malaysia Agreement 1963. Malaya (composing of 11 states) has been in existence since 1957. Sabah and Sarawak got their independence in 1963. All 3 independent area/nation came together to form Malaysia in 1963.

That's why SS has their own immigration control (that's why they kick Malayan racists out of their territory), have their own cabinet ministers etc. That's why you Malayan need work permit to work there. Same like you need work permit to work in other countries.

Don't go EM, no good.
Early morning kana panjat pokok to get internet.
Beware they still go ngayau (headhunting).
No food they eat palm worms.
Everyday hoohaa hoohaa haussss and moginum
U better stay in WM

I find it funny all the outdated information

The cost of lottery tickets is 10% higher in Sarawak and 15% higher in Sabah due to state sales taxes.

If u cook n buy seafoof its quite cheap there..i know coz my fil is from there and go back few times a year.

Wat makes u think materialism doesn't exists in Sabah & Sarawak?

sabah's Achilles heel is lots of Pilak, a good example is Pasar Filipin in KK

I can still find it for Rm3 at certain place. Chicken rice Rm4. Portion can makan for 2 person.
Taste wise, kenot complain. Since it's cheap and portion is big

I tot haze is a yearly problem in Sarawak due to burning in Kalimantan. Is it very often? Does Sarawak has nice coastal towns with beautiful beaches n cheap seafood?
