    Boas Festas Josh & Kaylie, now towards gifts to be given to other people it is just like she said, to common people that you know you offer wine & chocolates even from your local supermarket between 3 to 6 or 7 euro), if you have people to impress you give the same but with upper value. ( after 10 euro but below 20 because it´s just a christmas gift). Money just for close kids of your own family. Or gift cards from every brand - FNAC - ZARA - EL CORTE INGLES, etc. but not from Continente or Worten, that´s also for family.

    I'm an American retiree now 7 years in Kuching, Sarawak on the Sarawak MM2H. There's also a Sabah MM2H so one should definitely understand that the programs vary by State ( it has to do with the fact that Malaysia formed as a confederation from four culturally and politically different states. The Islamic aspects are less prominent in Sarawak and Sabah. So you can get both domestic pork and wild boar (which is a staple in traditional diets). Christianity is actually the majority faith in Sarawak and Sabah. And these two regions are much more forested and water oriented...if you want to stay in water village resorts, dive, or kayak. There's even .mountain climbing and caving. Teh tarik is pulled coffee or tea, and Sarawak and Sabah have started commercialising their Liberica coffee which is definitely distinct from Starbucks and most world brands (Arabica beans). Lots of tropical fruits and juices. The Malay, Indonesian, Chinese food influence is pretty big in Sarawak with some Philippine influences in Sabah. But you are unlikely to find the distinct Dayak (local hill tribe) foods and influences in the Peninsula of Malaysia. Lots of sea food, as well. Anthony Bourdain loved the Sarawak Laksa dubbing it the "breakfast of the gods". Watch his two programs about his visits. Kuching is now a UNESCO Gastro city. In most of Malaysia they now require the purchase of a property to get a long-term MM2H visa. But Sarawak MM2H does require that...simply a 30 day visit/year. You can travel to, but not reside in, West Malaysia. The big recent change is the requirement of a Fixed Deposit in a local bank of the equivalent of $118,000. It's a ten year visa with an intermediate check. You can purchase property (either landed or strata) in Malaysia. But, as mentioned, Sarawak is the only version of MM2H visa that doesn't MANDATE purchase, or even renting. So for nomadic travellers that can be a big plus. So a lot of short term renter's are common expats. But some do purchase property and they can withdraw up to 50% of the Fixed Deposit for that. One can also withdraw funds for car, school fees, or medical expenses. If you do purchase landed property there's a minimum of Rm600K ($140,000) for foreign buyers -but there's no floor for Strata Property purchases. I gave up my Medicare Plan B due to the uselessness abroad of Medicare. But as you mentioned the quality and cost of healthcare in Sarawak is commensurate with the Peninsula. So everything is over-the-counter, but for MM2H those under 50 must buy a basic insurance plan. Waived for those over 50. They do expect a checkup but only exclude those with communicable diseases or indicia of drug usage (so clean up if you are a marijuana user). Sarawak has four international schools. And education is one of the areas that Sarawak allows expats on SMM2H to work part time in. The other areas are Medical, Banking/Securities, and Manufacturing. One can also invest in a business, but only as a silent partner with a Sarawakian. For more info go to the government website www.mtcp.sarawak.gov.my and click on the "For Public" draw down menu. Since these are new requirements click cj on the banner about the new updates ("Enhancements"). Sarawak has lower street crime than West Malaysia. I think motorcycle theft is the number one crime and sadly family violence the #1 violent crime. The biggest safety risk is motorcycle accidents.

    One of these days, you absolutely have to take the Yellow Train that departs Villefranche-de-Conflent (in the Languedoc) and ends at Latour-de-Carol. You can take it in the morning and be back by the afternoon. It’s a little train with some open cars (painted yellow, with benches) that takes you through stunning countryside into Andorra, with several stops. Honestly, it’s like a Disney ride for adults! Your daughter will love it. Lots of dark tunnels, beautiful pastures, gorgeous mountains, and the train runs at a pretty good clip so it’s lots of fun. I highly recommend it. 😉

My friend wanted to take part in the show, she let them play the game, we thought the price was exaggerated (around €7.5), but they indicated the price posted on the counter. In another place I asked a salesperson, when he saw me approaching he started with the show, I said I just wanted to know the price and he indicated the price, it that displayed on the counter.And remember, you're not paying for the ice cream, which is worthless, you're paying for the show

    Turkish is actually one of the easiest languages to learn grammatically, with very regular structure, no noun class or grammatical gender distinctions, etc. It is agglutinative, so you just pile up the segments to form a word. Supposed to be one of the easiest for children to learn. Okay, this is all from memory... but it's what I remember from teaching linguistics 20 years ago 😄 Much easier than Portuguese! She says feelingly...

    That feeling you mention that some Portuguese people don't like Americans has nothing to do with recent events. There is a Marxist streak in PT society that has always hated the USA. It is actually fading now, had you been here in the 1970s/80s you'd have felt it in full force. Now that the Left is losing the cultural battle in Portugal (I mean the REAL left, not those right-wingers you call Left in the USA) USA bashing is actually going out of fashion.

    Interesting views on KL. As far as I know, Malaysia is not an Islamic country. However, the religion of Islam is practised by 60% of the Malaysian population. There are plenty of restaurants which serve pork. There are also “halal” (pork free) and “non-halal” Ding Tai Fung in KL. You probably went to one that’s halal. KL is also known to expats as a place with many lovely cafes serving fantastic & quality coffees. I personally find the coffees in KL great! Re airports, you mentioned Tony Fernandez, then you were referring to Terminal 2, KLIA2 (more for domestic flights)? I can’t help but compare that to many airports in USA and other countries…. Do you really think it’s abysmal? Having said that, I do think KLIA 1 & 2 can be improved, that’s for sure!

    Hey glad you came visit Malaysia. Btw the Chinese eat pork as staple right here in Malaysia. You need to go to Chinese restaurants or Chinese kopitiam (coffee shop) and there's lots of cafesrestaurants where you can have bacon n egg breakfasts or or all day big breakfass with bacon pork sausages etc. Not to mention bak kut teh, a meal with pork spare ribs as main dish.

    • @ExpatsEverywherePodcast
      @ExpatsEverywherePodcast 27 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thanks for the comment. There are 2 videos that came out in tandem with each other and kind of play off each other. Another podcast episode was about Malaysia, namely KL, which was formatted the same as this. Kalie and I like to take our audience members on the road with us when we travel. This comparison in particular would hit the demographic of expats that are considering relocating for work, possibly doing international school teaching (like we did), or potentially starting a company. We'll finish up this little travel (comparison) series with our Istanbul, Turkey episode next week. - Josh & Kalie

      Hi, not sure what you mean by "doesn't provide residency status". It is possible for someone to change jobs within Singapore in case of a lost job but one would need to file with MoM for that and that's not too dissimilar to other countries.

    • @ExpatsEverywherePodcast

    As Johor Bahru has been more beautified and made more touristy, it would be possible to live in JB and regularly travel to Singapore with the new train link opening soon (faster than the current train/bus/car). However, unless you're working in Singapore, I think the visas are prohibitive for most people. There is no retiree visa, etc.

    • @ExpatsEverywherePodcast
      @ExpatsEverywherePodcast 27 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Agreed! JB has had a ton of foreign investment in the past 5-10 years so it's certainly an option. Singapore could be used as a weekend getaway. - Josh & Kalie
