Malaysia's new residency program is here! | Details on the new MM2H 

Hi friends, I just posted a video on the DE Rentau digital nomad visa as well. Check it out here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MafKbh-IMw0.html

I'm 54 and my wife and I are VERY worried about our future, gas and food prices rising daily. We have had our savings dwindle with the cost of living into the stratosphere, and we are finding it impossible to replace them. We can get by, but can't seem to get ahead. My condolences to anyone retiring in this crisis, 30 years nonstop just for a crooked system to take all you worked for.

Malaysian here. Please come and stay here and make this your 2nd home. We're happy when you are happy here. 😊

I absolutely love this video. I've lived in the west my entire life, first in the states then in Canada. For the last 3 years I have been seriously contemplating moving. There are so many reasons why I want to leave, but the most important one to me is that Canada does not align with my faith and principals as a muslim. I visited Malaysia when I was 19 and loved it so much. I've been planning a trip to southeast asia with my family in Sept... and I am doing so because I want to show them what life could be like somewhere else, how the quality of our life can improve so drastically by changing locations. I want to live in a place where wearing the hijab is normal, hearing the azan is a part of daily life, where there are ample places to pray... I feel our parents moved to the west wanting to give us a better life and alhamdulilah they have, but as the years pass these places no longer serve us... in fact they've begun to feel suffocating. Thank you for sharing this information about the new visa process!!! I am so glad to know they've made getting residency easier. It's something I definitely want to look into in the near future.

Malaysia is a very good place for Muslim families.

Malaysian here smiling for every point you gave😊😊😊😊

I am from India. As a Muslim my favorite countries are Malaysia, Qatar and Kuwait. And according to Dr Zakir Naik Malaysia is the best Islamic country. Very needed video topic

I went to Malaysia last year for my academic internship and absolutely loved it. The people are very friendly and generous. It's definitely a very safe place to stay and also perfect for Muslims because of Islamic practice, halal food and every other thing. Would love to come back again and this time for a long time. Thanks for the video! ♥️

Last year I spent a family holiday in Malaysia it was my second holiday, my family loved the country, very modern, first class facilities and Cameron Highlands was very cool and enjoyable. I'm planning my summer holiday 2024 to Malaysia and Indonesia, In Sha Allah.

Good info. Very well delivered.

Please pray for our family, may Allah Subhan Allahu Tayala help us to settle in Malaysia. Last Jumma's incident in Delhi I'm really upset and scared of the future of Muslim ummah of India. May Allah save Muslims. Ameen.

Welcome Everyone To Malaysia

Love your video and comment about living as MM2H at Malaysia... Subhanallah Indah nya Malaysia ku....

Thank you for sharing your insights. MashAllah, beautiful country and culture.

So exciting!

Love that! We are on a slow travel adventure through SE Asia and at the same time shopping for a place to move to, residence! We have lived in S. Korea for many years and love Asia, missed it during the 3 years back in the US (after retiring from my job in Korea). At first we thought we would move to Makati, Philippines as we have been there many times and is very American-friendly, but we stayed in KL, Penang and Langkawi for 3 months. KL is a very well developed city, at undeveloped cost of living...amazing. Transportation (very important to us) is one of the best in the world. The diversity issue, you spoke very well of, is sublime. Malay/Islam, Chinese/Buddhist and Indian/Hindu...all good. The people are the friendliest in SE Asia, they make eye contact and you can see they are all good & genuine people. We are also not done with our slow travel (currently in Da Nang, Viet) but I already miss Malaysia! Can't wait for the new MM2H program to be released, I already have an agent. By the way Penang is fantastic and when we get a bit older, will move there from KL as it is a bit slower...thanks.

Good delivery of facts. Thank you.

Nice vlog!❤ Bring you whole little clan here...that funny !😂😂😂

Thanks for sharing!

For limited time only , Heaven on Earth 🌏 , that's is Malaysia 🇲🇾 , better grab the offer & enjoy it now. Hv a great one ya ✓ 👍🏻🤝🏻💪🏻✌🏻

*Welcome to Malaysia truly Asia good food, people beautiful beach, skyscrapers & others, Msian likes to lepak Restaurant Mamak drink Teh Tarik, Likes to joining Malaysian, Welcome 🇲🇾💙🧡♥️💙🇲🇾* *Alhamdulillah semakin membaik Malaysia Kita insyaAllah, semuga semua bekerja kuat untuk mengembalikan kemakmuran Malaysia yang Kita diami bersama, Ayuh Semua Rakyat Malaysia ♥️💖💝🇲🇾❤️💝💖*

I truly agree that Malaysia is modern and well known for good medical care. Last month, I visited Kuala Lumpur and it felt like I was in New York City. Food is good too, second only to Bangkok, Thailand. One thing to keep in mind though, tropical diseases like the mosquito borne dengue and the likes are still prevalent in the country, especially in Kuala Lumpur and the surrounding areas. This is something that westerners are at greater risk for because they tend to wear shorts and T-shirts because of the warm weather.

Love hearing about newest MM2H stuff (after the recent 🤦‍♀ screw-ups) (also... good job, hubby 😅)

Allahamdulillah, informative, excellent breakdown, great video ❤

I love your channel's name🎉 In Malay language we also use the word Musafir

Thank you sister saira.

Ive been waiting for this, thanks to Malaysian people and Govt.

Awesome stuff. My favourite country in the world!!!❤

Thanks for this information. would love hear your comments about living costs in Malaysia. Thanks again.

I went there some years ago, but found it very hot. I found the trains were light years ahead of other Asian countries. The food was more inclined for an Asian palate and you could soon put your tummy out, depending on where you eat!

Malaysia is a good country to live in if you have a lot of money. The exchange rates here will make you live like a king and lord over the locals.

yes can you make one on digital nomad requirements. thanks

As others have commented, the Malaysian government hasn't given a lot of clarity since these new MM2H options were released. Some are speculating that minor revisions might be applied after the government evaluates how well received it is. I believe many will do the wait & see approach before making any kind of commitment. Fingers crossed 🤞 A video on the digital nomad visa would great. There's also the Sarawak MM2H program, a retirement visa option on the island of Borneo.

Thank you Saira. That was crystal clear and very helpful🙏🙏

Lovely very informative video🎉

Thanks for this informative video.

Welcome to Malaysia!

Sounds interesting... thank you for your information. I am from germany, living in Bangkok and switch between Bangkok and Langkawi 3 times a year. the platin program sounds interesting.

Also there's halal sushi place, halal chinese restaurant, nasi kandar, and resting cost is amazing too, around $300 got whole apartment with 3 BR, nice quite green area, not too far from park where early in the morning you'll see old people mainly Chinese Malaysian doing tai chi, and the other side there's joghing track some public equipment or can just find a place to sit and relax breathe nice air. Yes, forget about citizen ship, to get PR it's not easy over there. Just make sure find a place near by supermarket all shopping center, traffic is too much but not as bad as jakarta (Indonesia) I believe. But these was years ago experience. Now more infrastructures i believe l, coz when i was there there's some projects going on around the area I stayed. Husband and I also put eyes on Oman, still do some searching. I personally would love to know any similar possibility for Brunei Darussalam too.

Regarding the hot weather and humidity. There is all year round the best cool weather ever, where no need for Airconditioning neither heating, go to Cameron highland.

Good 👍 video. Thanks Saira

Please keep on making videos on Residency program options. If you could cover crypto investors as well, that will be great.

New subscriber here 😊 This is a wonderful informative video 💖

love your channel.

Your husband really loves you.He protects you legally.So.Be Nice to him..Secons.You are not a musafir.You are a good human and welcome always to every where.

MashaAllah.. i guess mm2nd Home program is a good option You r most welcomed sis n fmly

Lived there 9 years and I'd go back in a heartbeat except I need a bronze plan, lol! boleh???

Very interested about knowing more about the digital nomad visa pass 🙏

Thank you for the positive comments about Malaysia. I was told that MM2H participants get tax free vehicle importation, but Malaysian expats abroad are only given 50% of that. Getting tough to bring back my V8 Stang with expensive import tax.

Salam Saira..been watching a few videos now on Malaysia. Looking to move out the UK and i am a Nurse so i will have to find a job first before i can think about moving

Religious respect so beautiful thanks for sharing that moment

Welcome to Malaysia

Thank you for your video. Can you please share documents about MM2H and any agency that can help in processing the application.

Assalamualaikum Saira, Amazing video! When is the video about Digital Nomad Visa coming out? Is there anyway you can move to Malaysia if you're under 30?

Love to know about the digital nomad visa program. If you can make video that would be great.

Amazing stuff thanks

For families, do all members each have to spend 60 days a year in Malaysia? Or just the primary applicant?

@sairathemusafir for these MM2H programs you mentioned renewals after the term for example 5yr silver option. Would we need to keep $100k in the account to renew? Let’s say we spend $50k after the first year to buy property, do we need to add that $50k back into the account before we can renew for another 5 yrs?

Thanks for information

Go for the best & right location. Especially near any train stations

Please do a video on the digital nomad pass for Malaysia

The food part. It is for real.

Another point that foreigners always point out about Malaysia is their English proficiency. Knowing their language would be a huge plus, but you can definitely get by just by knowing English.

Malaysia is my second home after India... I thought of Canada earlier and dropped that idea... Malaysians are very friendly and very good for Muslims...

Wa alaikumussalaam! Your video popped up on right time. I am living in US, would like to move to Saudi with my family and 2 kids

Yes want that nomad visa

Que.. If we want to apply silver program. 100k. At the end of 5 yrs , do we have to increase and add another 100k? (Total 200k) Or we can just keep that 100 k in bank and apply to renew for another 5 yrs.

12 hours and night balance is great and no winter

After a year you can take 50% out of the bank, what about the rest? How long should you keep that in the bank? And are you allowed to work?

This could have been more informative IMO. Like what do you get with this visa program is it just temporary residence? Then how do you renew it and can that money be taken out if you need to without affecting your visa status? Are you allowed to work there full time, is healthcare included or provided by the government? Are Children’s education and tuition covered by the government, how are you taxed, is there any language differences we should be aware of etc?

I like your video very much. Thank you for clarification all those points, my question is do you have a mission three points of getting a resident in Malaysia I think you’ve mentioned hundred thousand 250 k and US$450,000 for permanent residence , Can you just please explain look like fighting me the 250,000 100,000 and 450,000 which is you have to put on the bank, for how long and what is the interest rate on those amount do you receive ? Can you use the amount of Fund to purchase the property instead keeping in the bank thanking you

I am Canadian but differently considering retirement in Indonesia or Malaysia

Thanks for all the wonderful information and the details so very helpful. Appreciate all your effort. You said the three levels of residency are renewable, what is the process of renewal? Just curious.

Love this info thank you ! Is there a way I can email or message you privately for some other questions about Malaysia ?

How much is the minimum? And do you still have to provide a residency and money’s in their original country?

How about the implementation agreement of this sharia index between Saudi Arabia and Malaysia?

Hi we need more info on this program and would like to see if you can help us.

Thanks for the information, very helpful. Does the option of including children and parents only apply to the Platinum program, or to Silver and gold as well? Thanks!

Soon ramadhan bazaar 😋

What is the cost of living in Malaysia, the housing-cost, jobs - what type, what wages, how much a minimum worker gets and how much is needed to go through the expenses, the monthly bills etc can you make another video with all this info, please and thank you

MashaAllah

What we heard is that the new MM2H regulations are still under review and seemingly was announced too early. At the moment they are apparently not processing anything and await cabinet approval and the MM2H agents do expect an income requirement to be added. Also note that the permanent Residency under the top tier is not guaranteed, it remains an application and insiders believe it is not going to be that straight forward. Malaysia is indeed a wonderful country and hope they get the MM2H back on track.

What about if we dont have that level of funding for investment but need to settle there or get PR if we come there for a job?

How you can compare malaysia from living in Dallas Texas usa

Please come, we need more expert Muslims in Malaysia.

Yes please go on to create Digital Nomad visa program, there is quite a huge audience awaiting to hear about it.

How is schooling and the education compared to North America. Would love to hear in this topic plz.

My concern is with the deposit requirement. The MYR is devaluing. So loss of principal is likely.

❤❤❤​Please sister, could you please make content about medical care, which kind of medical insurance to take for european retired ( from Switzerland), what are the best medical centers in malaysia? Are their anywhere or only in big cities? Etc...Thank you very much for your precious videos !

Is there medical screening during m2h program? Also can we work?

Living in US. Exploring options. Not excited about huge urban cities though. More a peaceful country or beach vibe for me.

plz make a video about investment opportunities in property, language barrier and monthly expenses

thankyou😀

Assalamualycum Sister! Very informative video! Please do make one for $100k tier visa program! Also does the residency visa allow someone to work there too? Is there any requirement for someone to leave the country for certain amount of time after staying in Malaysia for a year let’s say?

So I don’t have to give up my American Passport in order get Malaysian Passport??

Thank you for the video. Quick question: Can you please make a video on if someone has a counselor qualification and wants to work from Malaysia for a company outside Malaysia, in which visa category does he falls into? Also, i have some queries regarding counselling in Malaysia, would you be kind enough to refer me to a practicing counselor in Malaysia? Thanks a lot

can you show us normal everyday life there, not a touristy life also how far is the beach? can one walk to the clean nice beach every day? how to get around town? % of humidity and highest heat temperature?

my number is the weather and heard it has stable weather

Where do you live in Malaysia im looking to move next year with my family

Waalaikumsalam. Pls share your activities in Malaysia.
