Hi everyone,

I am yet to visit Malaysia.
I am planning to go  next month, please suggest where should be the nearest residential area when my office location is Shah Alam & what would be the cost of living in details.
Initially going alone but family will join after 6 months (wife &one 3 years old daughter.)
Looking for feedback.
regards

Stéphanie

Hi fun_1234,

Welcome to Expat.com :)

To have an idea about cost of living in Malaysia i invite you to have a look at our recent thread based on the same question > Cost of living in Malaysia.

Thank you

Subang Jaya is one possibility.  This thread has some interesting information

Shah Alam covers a large area and has its own housing offerings. Depending on where you will be based, what other suburbs might be convenient.
