Need advice finding a programmer job to relocate in Malaysia for few years?
I have a bachelor's degree in computer science and I have been working in New York City for about 5 years as programmer. I am thinking about moving to Kuala Lumpur for a few years for family issue. I like to do some research on whether it is worth to do the move. Any information on the jobs market, salary, etc. will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

At what time does the sun rise and set where you live
At what time does the sun rise and set where you live?
I found out a while ago after watching Smallville and The OC that the sun rises real early (5-6 AM?) in the States. In Malaysia, the sun starts to rise at 7 AM, and it only gets real sunshin-y at 8+ AM. Then it sets at around 7 PM, and it only gets real dark at around 8 PM. I'm talking about Kuala Lumpur, BTW, dunno about East Malaysia. So... When does rise and set where you live? Just an observation: If what I found out is correct, then a lot of Americans are still sleeping after the sun is up (5-6 AM), while a lot of Malaysians are already up at 5-6 AM, when it is still dark (to prepare to pray, for Muslims, and to go to work and school, generally), and by the time schoolchildren they get to school, the sun is only beginning to rise (7 AM). Oh, so the sun rises and sets at different times in the US... 0_o

Hi I'm in Detroit, Michigan USA - the sun rises at 8:00 a.m and the sun sets about 5:30 p.m

Sunrise and sunsets do not vary as you go east and west, rather north and south. The further north and south you go from the equator, the greater the extremes of daylight and night. I've been in Alaska in the summer and sunset came at 11pm and came back up again at 2am. That was wild. In January in Anchorage, sunrise is not until 10am and sunset starts around 4pm. If you get above the Arctic Circle, you'll experience perpetual day in the summer (on and around June 21) and perpetual night (on and around December 21). The opposite goes for below the Antarctic Circle, i.e. winter solstice is in June and summer solstice is in December.

Is it safe for a girl to travel alone in Malaysia
Is it safe for a girl to travel alone in Malaysia?
Is it safe for my girlfriend to travel alone, taking a bus from Singapore to Kuala Lumpur? Because I will be meeting her there...anyone heard of anything bad? She is working in Singapore, and I happen to drop to Malaysia for some meeting, and we want to save time by just waiting for her there. Any good but inexpensive hotel to suggest too? Thanks!

Yes, nothing to worry about at all...

of course it is safe...Malaysia is one of the safest country... besides that, there are plenty of inexpensive hotels there
3 :
It is rather safe to travel alone in Malaysia. Do beware of pickpockets in crowded areas though. Also refrain from wandering on the streets at night. They have been reports of missing children in the country lately, but unlikely for tourists to be targetted. Please do make sure that the company that operates buses from Singapore to KL is of a high reputation one and avoid travelling at night. Good luck and have a pleasant stay!

Malaysia is a safe country. If you want to be on the safe side, don't let your girlfriend save pennies on taking the cheapest option. Let her travel in VIP aircon busses that go non-stop from Singapore to KL.
5 :
This means that she is taking the Singapore>>>Kuala Lumpur express coach/bus. As long as you picks her up from the bus terminal at the puduraya, this will be safe. Avoid traveling at night or late night arrival.As the down town bus station is infested with drug addicts , beggars and rude RELA sickos. As for good not too expensive hotels , do try Fortuna (behind BBintang McD) or the Swissgarden in chinatown ( quite near to Puduraya bus station)
6 :
Don't worry. She'll be alright. Just ask her to be extra careful with her belongings when she arrives at the crowded bus station. This is an advise not a warning. The cheapest hotel you can get in town is the no-frill hotel TuneHotel ( http://www.tunehotel.com ). Very cheap, as low as RM9.99 per night. Of course at this rate, a very basic room is expected.

I travelled alone in the Far East ... Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, Jakarta, Bangkok, Manila. Sadly, the only bad experience i had was in Kuala Lumpur. I was robbed in kuala lumpur. Is it safe in Malaysia? Based on my personal experience, I would say NO, its not safe.

You should consider Singapore. Its a multicultural society and well-connected to the rest of the world. The country is advanced with the comforts of modern living (but this can be said of both Malaysia and HK too). But most importantly, if you are concerned about your children's education, in my opinion, Singapore's education provide better fundamentals than what can be generally obtained in KL and HK. Of course, to qualify that sentence, you can still get good educaiton in KL and HK for a price.
2 :
Because one was born there and as such, home and most friends are there.
3 :
I personally feel that growing up in Asia makes a person more cultured and well mannered, esp for kids. I miss that right now as my kids are now growing up with rowdy caucasians and are learning to swear at 4yrs old what's the deal with that? Education system is much better too in Singapore.
