@sightsonkl good to hear your plans to move to Malaysia. We are expats living here and love it. I'm self employed and my kids go to school here age 13 and they10. My wife has made some good friends and loves it here too. Having moved from Dubai we thought it would be hard to adjust but it was ease.

Glad to know you live in San Francisco, my wife and kids are coming your way in July  and we've been looking at book hotels or apartments for them to stay in the Bay Area or fisherman's Wharf  and also understand the transport system there as we need to book road transport for them mid July from SF to Sacramento. Any recommendation?

Let us know how we can help plan your travel to Malaysia when you plan to visit, do reach out anytime.

Hi all,

I'm moving from the US to Seremban at the end of June.  This is an open ended request, but I'm looking for feedback from parents and teachers on International schools in Negeri Sembalan and  southern Selangor. I'm planning on visiting schools for my 11 and 13 year old in July and I'm hoping to create a shorter list of school to visit.

Thank you,

Scott

@hibahuzyan Welcome to Malaysia, hope you have a good trip here and enjoy your course at UM. It's a place where a lot of students come to study long and short term, so it will be interesting. Good food, lots of nice Arabic foods too in the Bukit Bintang area, so you won't miss it. I understand you from Jordan? Beautiful place you'll have.. was there 3 years ago but a short business trip.
Well, let us know how we can be of any help to make your stay enjoyable.
