Mudlaysia has its pros and cons just like peesai. If one needs a place to rent fast and cheap, JB is the place. If you DIY in cooking and uses alot of utilities, MY is perfect for you. Been staying in JB for at least 2.5 years and its not meant for everyone. JB is also not a long term solution in getting out of peesai. The traffic is horrendous during peak hours and even on non peak hours and its going to get worst as more and more sinkees and FTs move to JB.
Like one forumer said, not everything is cheap in JB. You can find cheaper shit at Mustafa. Public transport is shit and taxis are shitier. Only Penang to me is good compared to rest of MY. Mainly because more chinks are there. Unless you dont have to travel in and out of JB like I do, I dont recommend living here for good unless you are retiring/have money and dont need to work but still wanna be close to family in peesai. If you are intending to get out of peesai for good, stick to OZ, canana or NZ.
