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.

Because one was born there and as such, home and most friends are there.

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.

What is the appropriate business dress for a female in Malaysia
What is the appropriate business dress for a female in Malaysia?
I'll be working as a marketing manager for an outdoor company based in Kuala Lumpur and I'm not sure what clothes are appropriate! Any examples would be welcome as would any cultural restrictions (Islam). Thanks for your help!

Basically you are allow to wear anything beside being naked. They won't do anything to tourists and only muslim will follow the islamic rules. Malaysia has 35% non-muslims, so it is unlike those conservative islamic countries in middle east.
4 :
Friends have told me that the basic thing is to have your arms covered, long sleeve blouses, jackets instead of vests and the like The Malaysians/Malays seemed to be very tolerant but dressing modestly was seen as showing respect for the dominant culture
5 :
you should wear appropriate corporate attire. BTW, which company are you working with, you might meet me....
6 :
Oh you'll be surprised at how sexy some marketing/sales ppl wear here. But for a professional image as a marketing person, usually anything that covers you well esp. your chest, make sure not too revealing necklines, covers your boobs, knee lenght skirts, pants - not hot pants, not too thight/flashy & how you behave & personality. If you're alone in lonely or majority men territory, it's always safe to wear extra long jacket/or Scarf. Sometimes they way men looks at a lone female despite being well dressed are pretty intimidating/scary, no matter in which country. Btw. good luck in your new job!
7 :
a moderate attire should be cover yourself below the knee.. maybe wear a long skirt / dress.. shirt should cover your breast or wear a jacket..
8 :
Expensive and smart looking jacket. Tho' you may be cooked due by the crouching sun before you reach your destination.
9 :
you should wear a very corporate/business-like attire. like blouse (dark tone of colors or earth colors) with blazer, showing less less skin. with long pants or long skirt. the shortest a skirt could go is knee-length. then put your hair all in a ponytail or a bun (if you're not covering your hair), best as not to leave strands of hair on your face. last, a bit jewellery. not anything flashy, but something sophisticated.

Looking for someone who used to work in Pakistan Airlines
Looking for someone who used to work in Pakistan Airlines?
Is there anyone who can assist? I am trying to find some old friends who i have lost touch with , one used to work in PIA cargo and used to travel to Asia often, especially Manila. (this is about 30 years ago. The other friend used to be a pilot and was based in Kuala Lumpur, i think with MAS and then with PIA. He married a friend of mine. Unfortunately i have lost touch with all of them as we all moved overseas. I would really like to find them again. I called the HR Director in PIA in the HD office, at first he was polite but when he found out it was a personal request he was very rude, he said he couldnt help me and hung up on me! If there is anyone out there who might be able to assist, pls drop me a line. Thank you.
