Hi Dj Mc Could,
I know a French DJ here called Mathieu and another Hip-Hop DJ from Lebanon.
What kind of music are you looking for? Are you in KL?

You need to go round the pubs and clubs and speak to the managers and see if you can get say one evening a week. However, there will be immigration issues unless you set up a company in Malaysia or a branch of your existing company. Tax is 20-26% and you need a work permit.

Hi most DJs in KL suck - it really is just a 'school disco' mentality pay nothing get very little. A second job for most - you couldn't make a living in Malaysia as a DJ. KL has backward nightlife. Jakarta and Singapore are better although Europe is where the action is so no surprise you work there mostly!

The scene is full of Malaysians and Filippinos -  I think you will not succeed. Most people have two jobs in order to work in the music industry. They have a day job in a bank or with an IT company and just make pin money entertaining.
