There are of course hundreds of thousands of Malaysian Indians there but otherwise the expat community is not as large as the KL area or in Singapore.
Facebook is a very normal way to communicate in Malaysia

Hi , thank you for all the information. I am worrying that i am living in Dubai since 7 years with my family. We will like in JB or not ? this is big challenge for us. You know its very difficult to change country and set in new place without knowing anyone.

Yes, I sympathise with you - I've lived in 7 countries. You will find JB very different from UAE.
