The chances of foreigner's to work in Malaysia

"While you are a Foreigner"?

Unless you hold a Malaysian passport,you will always be a Foreigner

Are you saying you are a foreigner and want a job in Malaysia? I think right now is impossible due to covid. What kind of job are you looking for?

Even married to Malaysian, got 3 schooling kids who also are Malaysian, there is no way to get any help from the government initiatives. They expect to use up all the savings if you got. And if finished, also no help. The wife is not the head of the household and can't get approval for help as well. The banks do not extend the moratorium. Really a bad situation. And try to find an employment. That's nearly impossible. All initiatives are for Malaysian citizens only. Even to attend change of profession classes is limited to Malaysians only. Who will feed my family, all of them are MALAYSIAN?

I think those kinds of jobs are hard to get, but you should try going through an agency. However, as you can see in past topics, foreign workers in Malaysia seem to have many serious problems. during Covid I think it is wasting your time trying to find a job here.

Malaysia has a surplus of qualified accountants and salaries are low. So you have zero chance now of a job.

Even before the pandemic I only met expats in short term roles in accounting- back office type work. Usually only 6 months, sent by HQ overseas  to train a local up as work permits were getting harder.

Now, no way really, especially long term unless you have PR (and if you have to ask how to get PR, you wont get it)

Middle East is still best place for such jobs.

You should apply at companies that would want to hire those who can converse in other languages like international busineses (example: bytedance, accenture) or any content moderator position...they usually pay higher than those who are locals
