Experienced Expat work/ life. Hello All

Currently waiting on KL offer. In range 45-48K a month. On the face of it, sounds an ok offer, 1 school age child at the higher age range , international school is going to cost 100k a year from what I see. I figure factor that in and an average apartment at 3-4K a month, my disposable income will not be that great or not much more than now, particularly first 180 days @ 28% + tax. Am I missing any tricks, IE way to provide a non malaysian child a very good education in KL at the higher age range for less than 100K a year ?, or is it possible to get a good apartment for less than 3K a month ?.
All figures in MYR. Thanks

There are lots of price ranges in international schools from under RM5k per month. Property prices can also be as low as RM1800 per month but it depends on the area.

Fees rise with age so will be higher for child the age you mention.

Check out www.schooladvisor.my English curriculum is widely available and some few others. GEMS Metro Park may be an option. British International School is very good. There are many choices
