I'd like to know if there's any Malaysian staying nearby. My location is in JLT now and I hardly know any Malaysians here, and the very few ones I was in touch with before had already left the country :(

Would be great to hear from any of you :)

Hello Rodie.

Welcome to Expat.com!

You can also take a look to the list of Malaysian expatriates in Dubai. :)

Thank you,

Hi Rodie

I will be moving to Dubai soon (currently based in Saudi) and my office will be in JLT. Currently it is being renovated. Still have not sorted out accommodation as yet. What is it like in JLT? I am considering renting an apartment within JLT itself.

:)

Rodie

@Allan Smith, please accept my sincere apology that u feel offended.
My sole purpose of joining this site is to actually looking for other Malaysians in the UAE as we are very few and far in between.
I added a few more lines to the profile as i was getting ridiculous 'want-to-get-to-know-each-other' messages ... as if this is a match-making/dating site - and I think our moderator would agree with me that this site is not for that purpose.

Rodie

And by the way Allan, I get to know a lot of other nationalities here without any help of any website ... I made a lot of non Malaysian friends since I moved here - neighbours, work collegues, extended friends... 
Getting to know my fellow Malaysians here is my real problem. Hence I opt for this site. You could refer also to Aurelie message up there. Tips like this was what I needed.

Rodie

And also telling me to go back to my country without finding out my purpose to be in this website is a bit too offensive, don't you think? Ur first sentence there stated that u "don't understand"... Then why did you jump into ur own conclusions before u let me answer ur first question?

Rodie

To Aurelie & Zulkarnain,
thank you for your responses.

@Aurelie, I tried that link, and sent some messages, but none responded so far. I think most of them already went back to our home country. However there's a few new members got in touch with me, which is cool. Thanks!

@Zulkarnain, I sent you my contact details to ur inbox already so we could speak further.

Good Listener

Hi Rodie, fellow Malaysian here. Not in JLT though. Agree That there are very few Malaysians here in Dubai. Most are married with families and not registered on sites like this.

Rodie

Hi Good Listenner,

james.hamad
