Having a real hard time to decide if moving to KL is the right thing..

I thought students could work so many hours a week, just not full-time.

Check on that...

I am pretty sure that students can work a certain amount of hours, can't say 100% though

20 hrs a week only lol

Hello Jenlord

Please note that this is an old thread.

Thanks.

Hassan, did you come to Malaysia and find work? Feedback helps others take decisions like yours.

Oh well sorry it's been ages that I logged on, anyway, no I didn't move to Malaysia, and I'm not sure it was the right thing to do or not, but I'm too old to be just studying and not working, anyway I had another personal reason  that made me choose to stay put (it was wrong).

yes you can work part time.
in restaurant or as customer service.

I think Cairo (and Alexandria) are beautiful cities. Can't imagine why you'd want to move to Malaysia. Malaysia is just ok but not a fantastic place in my opinion. Why not consider other cities in the Middle East?

I think working part time will not be an issue in Malaysia

Thumbsup - as you probably know, there are strict rules about working part-time when on a student pass. They basically allow work in semester breaks and in certain sectors, anything else is strictly speaking - illegal. This is to protect the workforce of Malaysians. With the immigration checks that are very frequent now, the likelihood of getting busted is high. Being deported in the middle of a course of study for immigration offences, is probably not a good experience.
