    The utility bills in the UK are a complete rip off since this so-called crisis. Prices shot up would’ve been very slow to come down. We are also paying a lot for petrol, food and other basic necessities. Don’t forget we have a 20% VAT here as well.

    My family has had the same maid for over 20 years now Alhamdulillah. She is awesome, like my own mother. We cover everything from flight tickets, medical, food, clothes, gifts literally everything and not one cent of her income need to be spent on herself. Never will we change and if she finally wants to stop working (we've asked many times), we won't be taking new maids. So many untrustworthy maids nowadays 🥲

    From the list, as a local, you can cut a few things on the list. Rent, a two storrey terrace maybe a little off outside the city but still accessible to it around rm1500. Way cheaper in states other than KL Internet for home and phone (1 person) for about rm200. If just the phone ,rm60-80 per person. No need for maids if you can find a day to clean up once a week. Car, if you are looking for a B segment sedan, would be around rm700-1100. Less than rm500 for a compact car or segment A sedan. Go for local brands like proton and perodua, or japanese ones. Bills, electricity bills especially, if you don't mind spending more time under the fan, then you could do under rm200 per month. Groceries, it depends on how many things u need for your meals and house supplies. I'd say rm500 should be average if you have a family. Find a wet market or morning market for cheaper stuffs. Aeon is pretty expensive on some things.

The rest of the expenses will be bearable around rm5k maximum per month. This is my experience when i settled my house and car loans. It left me with an extra cash which i find it useful. Yes it is true if you want to buy a car choose of malaysian brand and japanese brand because the car maintanance is much much cheaper than the continental one. I used mercedes before and i opt for honda and toyota now and i save a lot.

    It sounds great , good and honest opinion, people can work out expenditure as they go along,I am sure if you lived in u.k you know you had to budget ,nothing is cheap anymore,in fact cost of living is quite high too,for some people,but if you not dependant on the state benefits,than the best for anyone is to leave. For the ones who are high tax payers and retirees who made their lives and have some income is best to move. The n.h.s. is falling apart ,only emergency can be seen at life and death situation . Is very frustrating when you can not see a doctor when needed. Schools are not that excellent but can not complain when you having a free education,but you must be able to teach your children at home ,otherwise lost case. So who ever can afford is a good way forward to start a new life.

    At least she ran away with things. My aunt’s maid ran away leaving my 6 months old cousin alone at home! CCTV showed that she left the house in the morning around 10 am, when everyone had left for work. My aunt return home around 5 pm and found out her baby was left alone almost dehydrated and exhausted from crying. I know it was part of her fault for not calling to check on them but she was overwhelmed with work due to her maternity leave. Take this as a lesson everyone and don’t leave your babies alone with your maid without installing CCTV everywhere and calling home often!

My husband &I are thinking of migrating and have considered several countries including GCC, Arabia, Dubai, Pakistan and Malaysia. All are off the list except for Malaysia & Pakistan. Pakistan is tempting b/c of family but Malaysia i think offers better weather, serenity, healthy mixture of islamic and western norm rather than the extreme of one or the other. Your videos will help us to make the final decision - Jazak’Allah Khair for your open and transparent advice & information. All the best for the future.

    Assalamualaikum. We used to have in Malaysia the following supermarkets 1. Jusco (Japan). Now rebranded as Aeon. 2. Carrefour. Now taken over by Aeon and renamed Aeon Big. 3. Tesco. Sold to Lotus, from Thailand. 4. Giant. For cars, all new cars will attract a minimum customs excise duties of minimum 75%. For imported cars from South East Asia, there are import tax which is max 5%. Imports from any other region would see heavier tax, if not mistaken minimum 120% up to 300%. EVs are tax free until 2025. There is also another type of cars popular in Malaysia which is known as recond (reconditioned) used imports from either UK or Japan. Mainly, the large boxy people carrier known as Toyota Alphard and Toyota Vellfire which is the preferred choice amongst businessmen, millionaires, politicians, ministers and pop stars more than Mercedes S class and BMW 7 series. Fords are never popular here (except for the mid range Ranger pick trucks lately). Same goes to Renault and Peugoet. Vauxhall is pretty much non-existent after British left Malaysia more than 50 years ago.

    The one thing I do is to go to different markets for different things. When I was in the UK it was easier though, because a lot of cities are walkable. But here I go to Aeon for fresh produce and Lotus for water (I probably should get a water filter). Luckily where I live (Nilai) there are Aeon, Lotus and Giant all within 2-3km drive. There’s a Speedmart 99 as well, which price is actually unbeatable for certain household products (cleaning supplies mostly).

    As a Malaysian, and I've been in Malacca for 9 years, I would say that, that living cost is definitely on the higher side. Definitely a comfortable, way above the median level malaysians living standard. 7k a month can get you through a lot especially in Malacca. Might also be good to add school fees and phone bills (Although phone is very cheap here). Another good thing to add, and somehow seems like a compulsory, is a drinking water filter dispenser machine. Amazing content by the way! Cheers! Assalamualaikum!

    Bear in mind, basically this breakdown, as saira’s said, she is being really generous. Which is yes, really2 generous. For locals’ that definitely a very comfortable life, more like for the upper class. So if lets say, if your budget is just half of saira’s budget, dont worry, you can still live comfortably. You just have to know where to cut the budgets a bit, where to buy things, and priorities things better.

    Thank you so much for such an informative video. I have been looking into moving to malaysia for many years now and I feel finally it may be within reach. I have 4 kids under the age of 13 yrs so schooling costs is going to be my biggest expense. The research I have done here in the Uk led me to believe that school fèes for 1 child was £500 per month but your calculation covers that for 2 kids. Can you please advise the best approach to confirming school fees?

We have watched a number of your videos and really appreciate the info you provide. We were thinking of catching a Grab tomorrow from KL to hopefully look at a property in your development. We have an interest in Phase 6 Oak Hill and was wondering if you could help with a viewing with the developer. I’m very sorry this is last minute request but I hope you can help! Thanks Ralph and Hazel Horne.

    The place you are living seems miles from anywhere. I’ve seen these new developments springing up outside of KL, but they look a bit isolated and one wonders what there is to do in these places. It’s alright saying you can go for a walk or play golf, but that can get a bit boring after a while.

    I would say Aeon has 3 main hypermarket tier. Aeonbig being the most affordable one. Then there're Aeon and Aeon Max Value. I think for regular Malaysians, mostly we go to Lotus, Aeonbig, Checkers or NSK because it's cheaper there. I believe soon they will implement targeted subsidy for petrol. I calculated for myself, if that happens, my petrol cost will increase somewhere between RM20 to RM50 per week.
