Would like to hear why long term expats or remote workers did or didn’t choose Malaysia over Thailand…and for those who did, do you regret it and why?
Also curious if the lack of language barrier was a big decider? and if anyone who chose Malaysia learnt Malay or Mandarin and if it has proven to be valuable in anyway.
*I like both countries for different reasons, just like hearing about peoples experiences.
Malaysia is better if you are planning on settling down and raising a family. Better education system, population diversity, job prospects for English speakers and IMO food compared to Thailand.
If you plan on living the single bachelor life forever then you’d probably prefer Thailand.
