I had been living in the UK and the the USA for almost a decade in each country, and finally, I choose Hong Kong as my final destination after considering all factors as an Asian.
Part 2: In Kuala Lumpur, You can rent a 1000 sq ft apartment for HK$3000-5000, and there are plenty of international, Chinese and Hong Kong restaurants offering delicious cuisine from various countries. You can also hire Indonesian or Filipino domestic helpers, either as full-time or part-time help. The wages are relatively lower compared to Hong Kong. Jaya Grocer supermarket offers a wide range of international food products. Private healthcare standards are similar to Western standards and comparable to those in Hong Kong, but the costs are only about one-third of what they are in Hong Kong.
Malaysia is an ideal place to live but doesn’t offer immigrant status. It’s extremely challenging for foreigners with MM2H to survive in Malaysia as employment isn’t allowed, especially for those who are ambitious in career development.
@@Kevin-tk5ly if you could afford MM2H, you don't need a job. our pay here is not that high tho on average. but you can setup your own company and running a business. how cool is that...
@@omni750 Not really. The threshold of MM2H is not sky high. Without stable income/pension, it would be challenging for foreigners to survive in Malaysia for long.
@@woyaudadongExactly the opposite, see how Hong Kong has become these days, anyway your “motherland” is going downhill in the same direction, just as you guys wish 😌
If Maggie comes to the US, she can consider being a court interpreter (or interpreter for law firms, etc) in cities where there is a large population of Cantonese-speaking people. My impression is that the pay is good.
其實如果計人工同工作機會美國會比英國高唔少可以話係唔同一個級別, apple 一間公司市值差唔多等同英國gdp, uk 經濟結構相對落後尤其係tech, 所以就算係london 人工可能不及美國二線城市如boston, seatlle.但係london 樓價唔比nyc 低, 但 london 唧平均人工可能唔會比 texas 高.
it doesn't matter where you live, the important thing is to take pride in your roots, your culture and your identity. What 's not right is when people who were born Chinese and yet refuse to acknowledge that they are Chinese; thinking that by discriminating against their own kind would make them a better "class" of human beings. That is the most despicable form of ignorance and this is what gave rise to a generation of "self-hating" Chinese in HK.
Having spent extended periods of time in New York, Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong, UK, and Australia, I personally prefer Australia. The health care system is good as well as job opportunities. Houses are reasonably affordable and comfortable. You can drive around easily compared with the mentioned cities.
@@綿羊日常頻道 The best city in Australia is Canberra. Canberra is in the Australian Capital Territory (ACT). ACT has very good transport , health and education services.
We live in Sydney. Like you we have been to many countries. It is always great to come home. We have universal health coverage, as well as private health insurance. We love the weather here, mild winters and sunny summers to enjoy the beautiful beaches. Taxes are fair comparing to the free education and health systems. Housing in big cities is high. One million dollars can only get you a basic 3 bedroom old house on 500 sq m lat least 25 km out of town , or a two bed room apartment a bit closer to town. If you go to a non major city, like Cairns in Queensland one million dollars may get you a 4-5 bedroom Morden house on 800 sq m land 5-10 km out of CBD.
Part 1: You can consider MM2H (Malaysia My Second Home) for relocation to Kuala Lumpur. It's a great place with many international schools and a good environment for raising kids. The tuition fees are only one-third of those in Hong Kong. For example, Sunway International School is highly regarded, offering Canadian curriculum, and secondary school education follows either the Ontario Secondary School Diploma or the International Baccalaureate (IB) program.
Though Malaysia is a very good place to live, they hold non-Chinese passports so there is no urgency to leave HK. They will pocket $$$ till there are better opportunities $$$-wise!
I think HK to stay is better for those with no special skill and passively income like rent. You can admit to a hospital anytime with hkid. Low rate... U can buy drinks and cigarettes anytime downstairs. The weather concerns, with aircon on is no issues, power bill is cheaper as the house is small.
this is a sensible and neutral video. not overly praise one while downgrade the other one, so thumbs up on that point. I can only compare edinburgh and HK: so below is some of my views, please note this is only my personal experience. and just FYI purpose to anyone who is considering coming over. Personally I think UK is not for everyone, actually I have seen so many HKers struggling with financial, weather adaptability, housing and etc, but since they sold the house in HK, they have to keep going forward, on the one hand, one could praise them for being brave and persistent, on the opposite angle, one may ask, is HK (your life) is really that bad that you have to uproot and start all over again? and suffer unnecessarily, but i guess only the person can answer that. I live in scotland, communication is not a big problem for me, what I am hesitating is the weather, the transportation, the bills and the variety of foods, not to mention the accessibility of medical assistance. NHS is a contributory scheme, it is not like it is a total free service (as in HK), i always joke to my HK friends, to be able to see a GP is as hard as to meet the UK royals. and the GP you gonna get, whether it can help you or not, depends very much on your luck. so far my experience has been disappointing. in HK, if you have the means (middle class/average) , you can go private and get the best care within your affordability, at least you got another choice, in UK, utilizing private practice is astronomical that is only reachable for the "rich". The second one is the transportation, it is extremely expensive, with 2 pounds per trip and cap at 5 pounds per day, that is HKD50.00 a day. It is very time consuming to go from one place to another, the bus here which is 7 out of 10 times isnt on time, delayed is a common everyday occurrences, transport time (the bus circle and circling every little alley and street to accommodate passengers), bus here with 40+ stops is normal. A good way to train your patience. :) The electric bill here is simply ridiculously expensive, i dont get why government has to tax people for using basic necessities? as if the bill isnt hefty enough. The weather, in Edinburgh, gloomy days/colder days (no sunshine) are more than sunny days, but that is also expected cause one must have done their homework before coming over right? but still when one actually and physically has to brave the strong wind and rain (it rains a lot here) just to do some grocery shopping is exhausting. and yet again, it leads us back to the electric bill, heater is an extravagant commodities here. be warned. :) Variety of food here is of course no match for HK, even if that is also to be expected, but that doesnt mean one cant "be disappointed". The basis expenses for a person (excluding rent) is expensive electric bill, council tax (which average to hkd1000/month), transportation, food and misc. should be taken into consideration. on the plus side, life is slow (if you like slow life) not much excitement, but a lot of greens, air is cooler and the locals are friendly, save a lot on unnecessary shopping too because there just isnt much things for you to shop and buy. personally for me, if i am still holding a job in HK, i would never settled in UK, salary here is peanut and the tax is appalling. how can one save enough to have a good retirement is a puzzle. in summary, i guess, it all comes down to one's expectation and needs, just dont 100% believe when KOLs told you UK is a heaven and HK is S**hole cause it is not, every city has its own pros and cons, Taiwan has its shortcomings too, i must add.
Interesting, ma'am! I'm a Canadian citizen, and I'm now living in UK. For me, I would prefer UK. I myself have an obsession with British Culture. Although salary in UK is likely less than in Canada, the living cost in uk is less than in Canada (excluding London maybe). So in UK, I can get much easy to afford my life than in Canada! At least, I can buy a house by my income in UK. If I'm still staying in Vancouver/Toronto today, I'm afraid that I'd still be unable to buy a house til now even if I'm working 2 full-time jobs at same time! I have no ideas why many young people are still choosing Canada. The living cost there are super high, and finding a good family doctor is super hard! And. I don't choose US also. I can't live in a place with high rate of crime, hot weather, and crazy left cultures/idealogies. You know, there are no utopian cities in the world, and all cities have their pros and cons. Just choose a city that suits you most. If I could go back to the past and choose again, if I can forget all politics, I rather stay in HK, to be honest! Hong Kong is ready beautiful! But right now, it's definitely a hard moment for people who are still choosing to stay in HK. Even you can ignore all politics, but I'm afraid that you can't evade to face the risks on difficult circumstances, such as international sanctions against HK/China or the war on Taiwan Strait. A rumor said that our great emperor Xi is agressively planning to take over Taiwan militarily, and many evidences have proved that he is likely preparaing for it and he would take action in coming years. If he ready sends troops and explodes the war, do you think that Hong Kong would still maintain in peace in the view of geopolitic? If this war doesn't happan eventually, it would be super great! But, if it ready happens, what would you do? I hope you'll evaluate all risks and take a wise decision, otherwise you'll be sorry for it. If you're looking a good place for giving your a good quality of life but you don't like US/UK/Canada/AUS/NZ, I'll suggest you to look at Malaysia! I'm now looking at Malaysia. Culture is closer to HK, foods there is so good, and I found so much funs there! I'm considering to relocate to there for my retirement in the future. I think it may be good place for you because Malaysia schools (international Schools) needs more English teachers like you. Think about it! Thank you!
I take exception to your suggestion that Malaysia is an ideal destination of migration for families with young children. My primary concern lies in how the education system is conducted primarily in regionally-specific language (Malay) as opposed to a more world-applicable lingua-franca (like English). Even if you send your children to an international school conducted primarily in English, if the environment is primarily composed of people whose speech is so heavily accented, children who grow up in such an environment will be stunted for international work.
When I worked for a major corp. a couple from HK came to visit my company's downtown HQs. They asked me why there were so few people in the street and they were alarmed to see someone has a pistol on his waist. I told them about the danger of walking around in the cities, and the fact that many law abiding citizens carried sidearms for self defense.
Maggie, US is not the same as before. I live in one of the best neighborhood, gated guarded. Still not safe. Also too much drugs and crimes these days. I am thinking going back to Hong Kong. Like you, I don't think I can adopt HK anymore. My brother has moved to Mainland. He prefers Mainland than Hong Kong. Another thing, when you have kids, prepare for them losing their Asian heritage and values.
Come to Melbourne, should be perfect for you and your family! A well mixed of US/UK and HK 😄- Asian parents are willing to pay to get great tuition teachers for their kids. AUD80-100/hr is quite a common rate.
We do paid 10% tips when we using QR code , it’s self services in some Japanese style restaurant in Hong Kong. However , if it is service base they servicing the meal to us, I am willing to paid it. ( Could u check my wording and sentence, collect or not)😂😊😅
For families with young children, I would take exception to your suggestion that Malaysia and Singapore is the solution. My primary concern lies in how the education system is conducted primarily in regionally-specific language (Malay) as opposed to a more world-applicable lingua-franca (like English). Even if you send your children to an international school conducted primarily in English, if the environment is primarily composed of people whose speech is so heavily accented, children who grow up in such an environment will be stunted for international work. While Singapore is said to have a high standard of education with English as the major medium of teaching, the majority of Singaporeans speak English with heavy accents, children who grow up in such an environment will also be stunted for international work.
Hi, Maggie, Hong Kong still is my first choice. Even I've visited US (New York, Chicago) and UK (London) before, it's good for tourism but not good for living. Just like you said, the tax and career are the big concern. thanks and hope you've a nice day. ^_^
I live in North East of United State. The winter is too cold and too long. I am a retiree. I stay at home everyday and can't go to anywhere during the winter. I really want to go back to Hong Kong to spend my retirement. Unfortunately Hong Kong real estate is too expensive. I have no choice to remain in United State.
Two of my brothers live in Chicago, which has very cold winter and they wanted to retire in HK too but housing too high in HK, so they are stuck in Chicago. I live in California, I love the weather and would not move anywhere.
My daughter pays $6000US a month for 9 hours daily babysitting in San Francisco. Also from Philippines but knows how to drive the kids to school and is an US Citizen. Its around $3500-4000 monthly in LA for a nanny. If you have young children, babysitting is a big headache in US but other than that, everything is better for myself and my family. I'll choose US for sure but it's really hard to get a green card in US unless your parents claim you or your already have one. Therefore, going to US is not an option unfortunately
Part 3: The only limitation of Malaysia MM2H visa is that you cannot seek employment locally, but you can establish a small business, engage in online businesses or work as an online tutor. The Malaysian government has announced plans to significantly reduce the requirements for applying for MM2H, so it's worth considering. Wait and see what comes out. I am also considering it. !😅
While US houses are relatively cheap, will their government just cover the rebuilding cost in case of natural disaster or owners are supposed to pay from their own pocket or by insurances afresh? I mean 4 or 5 millions are not that cheap if rebuilding in a decade or two is anticipated.
Government will not rebuild your house as far as I know unless you qualify for some type of disaster relief. Homeowners are supposed to pay for home insurance which covers the cost of rebuild if the right type of insurance is purchased.
@@jlouie8835 even if you have home owner insurance, there will be a huge deductible you have to pay. In my case, I expect to pay up to 20% to cover the cost.
@@goldenbear7156 My home insurance has a $5000.00 deductible. But if there's an earthquake, the deductible is $500,000.00 because I live in CA. It all depends on the insurance available for the area.
Like your videos and thanks for sharing. Me too, I dont have a family but I always thought about moving back to the US, however considering the job pay (unfortunately I am not a professional) and my age (I am mid age), it could be challenging to start everything over again. Hope I can move back for good some day soon.
It’s common among Hongkongers😂, live with it, however on the flip side, it also means we always strive for excellence and improvements, which is something the British really need.
English is only a tools for communication but it is not a key issue to succeed. Many HK people still think they will take some advantages if they know English for immigration. Unfortunately, they didn't know the professionalism is the most important issue when you earned living and stayed at foreign countries.

如果本身在香港做開專業人士如醫生, 教師, 護士, 律師或政府工鐵飯碗果班人真係唔好移民, 外國稅醫保太重, 揾得越多供得越多, 人工肯定比香港少左一大部份, 香港做老師閒閒地都5-7萬月入, 外國做老師人工偏低。但如果本身香港做開萬零蚊工作果班人, 帶住技能移民外國就著數, 好似做裝修, 美容美甲, 剪頭髮呢D在外國收入會比香港多

The second one is the transportation, it is extremely expensive, with 2 pounds per trip and cap at 5 pounds per day, that is HKD50.00 a day.

A good way to train your patience. :)
The electric bill here is simply ridiculously expensive, i dont get why government has to tax people for using basic necessities? as if the bill isnt hefty enough. The weather, in Edinburgh, gloomy days/colder days (no sunshine) are more than sunny days, but that is also expected cause one must have done their homework before coming over right? but still when one actually and physically has to brave the strong wind and rain (it rains a lot here) just to do some grocery shopping is exhausting. and yet again, it leads us back to the electric bill, heater is an extravagant commodities here. be warned. :)
Variety of food here is of course no match for HK, even if that is also to be expected, but that doesnt mean one cant "be disappointed".
The basis expenses for a person (excluding rent) is expensive electric bill, council tax (which average to hkd1000/month), transportation, food and misc. should be taken into consideration.
on the plus side, life is slow (if you like slow life) not much excitement, but a lot of greens, air is cooler and the locals are friendly, save a lot on unnecessary shopping too because there just isnt much things for you to shop and buy. personally for me, if i am still holding a job in HK, i would never settled in UK, salary here is peanut and the tax is appalling. how can one save enough to have a good retirement is a puzzle.
in summary, i guess, it all comes down to one's expectation and needs, just dont 100% believe when KOLs told you UK is a heaven and HK is S**hole cause it is not, every city has its own pros and cons, Taiwan has its shortcomings too, i must add.

Interesting, ma'am! I'm a Canadian citizen, and I'm now living in UK. For me, I would prefer UK. I myself have an obsession with British Culture. Although salary in UK is likely less than in Canada, the living cost in uk is less than in Canada (excluding London maybe). So in UK, I can get much easy to afford my life than in Canada! At least, I can buy a house by my income in UK. If I'm still staying in Vancouver/Toronto today, I'm afraid that I'd still be unable to buy a house til now even if I'm working 2 full-time jobs at same time! I have no ideas why many young people are still choosing Canada. The living cost there are super high, and finding a good family doctor is super hard! And. I don't choose US also. I can't live in a place with high rate of crime, hot weather, and crazy left cultures/idealogies.
You know, there are no utopian cities in the world, and all cities have their pros and cons. Just choose a city that suits you most. If I could go back to the past and choose again, if I can forget all politics, I rather stay in HK, to be honest! Hong Kong is ready beautiful! But right now, it's definitely a hard moment for people who are still choosing to stay in HK. Even you can ignore all politics, but I'm afraid that you can't evade to face the risks on difficult circumstances, such as international sanctions against HK/China or the war on Taiwan Strait. A rumor said that our great emperor Xi is agressively planning to take over Taiwan militarily, and many evidences have proved that he is likely preparaing for it and he would take action in coming years. If he ready sends troops and explodes the war, do you think that Hong Kong would still maintain in peace in the view of geopolitic? If this war doesn't happan eventually, it would be super great! But, if it ready happens, what would you do? I hope you'll evaluate all risks and take a wise decision, otherwise you'll be sorry for it.
If you're looking a good place for giving your a good quality of life but you don't like US/UK/Canada/AUS/NZ, I'll suggest you to look at Malaysia! I'm now looking at Malaysia. Culture is closer to HK, foods there is so good, and I found so much funs there! I'm considering to relocate to there for my retirement in the future. I think it may be good place for you because Malaysia schools (international Schools) needs more English teachers like you. Think about it! Thank you!
I take exception to your suggestion that Malaysia is an ideal destination of migration for families with young children. My primary concern lies in how the education system is conducted primarily in regionally-specific language (Malay) as opposed to a more world-applicable lingua-franca (like English). Even if you send your children to an international school conducted primarily in English, if the environment is primarily composed of people whose speech is so heavily accented, children who grow up in such an environment will be stunted for international work.
Miss Maggie小朋友咁細，俾我會留香港，因為始終香港係搵錢、儲錢嘅地方，但小朋友讀小學嘅時候就真係好好考慮了。英國食物真心麻麻，但如果自己買返去煮又ok喎😁
希望大家搵到一個樂土，加油
讀小學已經遲,而家香港由幼稚園入手洗腦.
I really like Costco in US and the weather is not hot.
政治既問題都系一個應該要考慮既因素
出境自由係未來可能未必系一件必然既事
不過有外國國籍點都會有多少既緩衝時間 小朋友太細的確唔太適合移民
我自己住佐係英國兩年 都覺得幾唔錯 系比較悶啲同飲食方面真系無得同香港比
對我嚟講係英國最大既困難系啲人講英文都講得好快 有好多時真系只可以靠估去get佢哋意思
有無畀樞密院逼害？
好明顯佢淨係講錢根本就冇諗過政治原因 簡單啲講邊度有着數去邊度
我永遠唔會理解「悶」點解會係一個回流原因，保麻雀打？無K唱？無得約朋友打邊爐吹水？ 呢啲野真係咁重要？唔可以培養其他興趣取而代之？

When I worked for a major corp. a couple from HK came to visit my company's downtown HQs. They asked me why there were so few people in the street and they were alarmed to see someone has a pistol on his waist. I told them about the danger of walking around in the cities, and the fact that many law abiding citizens carried sidearms for self defense.
very good. thanks.
Maggie，您好，其實你都可以在英協助香港移英的人，有好多人英文唔掂，做他們需要辦理的事情解釋和回覆信件，開一間這樣的服務公司，不困身，相信收入也可不錯，自己做老闆，那便不用回港工作了，一樣掂當。😀
移英港人生活艱苦，個個搶住做最低工資的執倉或派件，那有閒錢請識英文的人協助處理事情，一句香港人幫香港人就變了做義工😅

Maggie, US is not the same as before. I live in one of the best neighborhood, gated guarded. Still not safe. Also too much drugs and crimes these days.
I am thinking going back to Hong Kong. Like you, I don't think I can adopt HK anymore. My brother has moved to Mainland. He prefers Mainland than Hong Kong.
Another thing, when you have kids, prepare for them losing their Asian heritage and values.
Come to Melbourne, should be perfect for you and your family! A well mixed of US/UK and HK 😄- Asian parents are willing to pay to get great tuition teachers for their kids. AUD80-100/hr is quite a common rate.

如果要冒險要歷練，我讚同外闖移民。如果為尋求「更理想」生活，我睇這是入世未深的想法。如果兩者同時想達到，又想冒險歷練又想尋找更理想生活，這個也是好的，但真係要諗清楚研究清楚，新地方的民生制制經濟政治，係咪真係有機會達到自己心所想。如果年代回到老毛年代嘅中國，離開中國大陸求更好生活，我認同。美國如日中天的八十年代，去美國生活，絕對好事。今日諗清楚。

I think South East Asia is the solution, Singapore or Malaysia.
For families with young children, I would take exception to your suggestion that Malaysia and Singapore is the solution. My primary concern lies in how the education system is conducted primarily in regionally-specific language (Malay) as opposed to a more world-applicable lingua-franca (like English). Even if you send your children to an international school conducted primarily in English, if the environment is primarily composed of people whose speech is so heavily accented, children who grow up in such an environment will be stunted for international work. While Singapore is said to have a high standard of education with English as the major medium of teaching, the majority of Singaporeans speak English with heavy accents, children who grow up in such an environment will also be stunted for international work.
Hi, Maggie, Hong Kong still is my first choice. Even I've visited US (New York, Chicago) and UK (London) before, it's good for tourism but not good for living. Just like you said, the tax and career are the big concern. thanks and hope you've a nice day. ^_^
At the begining , u told about thousands of hker came to uk ? Whys that? Could u tell me on what ground the British gov issue this bno visa
I live in North East of United State. The winter is too cold and too long. I am a retiree. I stay at home everyday and can't go to anywhere during the winter. I really want to go back to Hong Kong to spend my retirement. Unfortunately Hong Kong real estate is too expensive. I have no choice to remain in United State.
Two of my brothers live in Chicago, which has very cold winter and they wanted to retire in HK too but housing too high in HK, so they are stuck in Chicago. I live in California, I love the weather and would not move anywhere.

My daughter pays $6000US a month for 9 hours daily babysitting in San Francisco. Also from Philippines but knows how to drive the kids to school and is an US Citizen. Its around $3500-4000 monthly in LA for a nanny. If you have young children, babysitting is a big headache in US but other than that, everything is better for myself and my family. I'll choose US for sure but it's really hard to get a green card in US unless your parents claim you or your already have one. Therefore, going to US is not an option unfortunately
Part 3: The only limitation of Malaysia MM2H visa is that you cannot seek employment locally, but you can establish a small business, engage in online businesses or work as an online tutor. The Malaysian government has announced plans to significantly reduce the requirements for applying for MM2H, so it's worth considering. Wait and see what comes out. I am also considering it. !😅

While US houses are relatively cheap, will their government just cover the rebuilding cost in case of natural disaster or owners are supposed to pay from their own pocket or by insurances afresh? I mean 4 or 5 millions are not that cheap if rebuilding in a decade or two is anticipated.
Government will not rebuild your house as far as I know unless you qualify for some type of disaster relief. Homeowners are supposed to pay for home insurance which covers the cost of rebuild if the right type of insurance is purchased.
@@jlouie8835 even if you have home owner insurance, there will be a huge deductible you have to pay. In my case, I expect to pay up to 20% to cover the cost.
@@goldenbear7156 My home insurance has a $5000.00 deductible. But if there's an earthquake, the deductible is $500,000.00 because I live in CA. It all depends on the insurance available for the area.
