The city Kuala Lumpur is rich in culture, religion and food. Different races live in peace and enjoy a lot of public holidays. Do note that traffic congestion happens frequently especially during peak hours but the journey back home will always be worth it as you enjoy the picturesque view of the skyscrapers from your balcony.

Kuala Lumpur is the capital of Malaysia. Kuala Lumpur Tower, Putra Mosque and Kuala Lumpur Railway Station are some of the popular landmarks here. It is indeed densely populated. After a heavy downpour, it tends to suffer from floods as it is by the Gombak river and the Klang river.

Kuala Lumpur is a modern city where people can enjoy a varied experience regardless of their interest. You can take day trips from Kuala Lumpur to visit Hindu temples, taste the local food, and enjoy the beautiful nature. There are plenty of malls if retail therapy is something you are interested in. People are friendly and speak English well.

For someone moving to Kuala Lumpur, they should be ready to adjust to the living culture here. For example, most available food items here are halal due to the population is mostly consisted of Muslims. Aside from that, other living conditions to consider are fairly well. Transportation here is very easy with the accessible light rail transits that are interconnected with most stations. Prices of daily needs and accomodation is quite good as well.

Everyone here knows at least two languages so it’s not a big deal if your neighbour is bilingual, trilingual, or multilingual. To really experience our culture, it is almost a must to try the variety of foods we offer here; KL is a food haven. If you are planning to submit any documents to the government, please plan and submit in advance. Civil working hours are usually between 8:30am-12:30pm and 2-5pm, most likely because of the Muslim praying hours.

Kuala Lumpur offers a multicultural and multilingual living environment. You will hear English, Malay, Cantonese, Mandarin, and Tamil among the languages spoken by the locals. As you walk along the streets of Bukit Bintang you get to experience the various cultures of Southeast Asia, East and West Asia. If you are into food, try out the “mamak” restaurants that offer Malaysianized Tamil-Muslim cuisine at bargain prices.
