Penang really great place. But may try Taiping or Ipoh. Calm and slow pace town, but with the best medical facilities. And the best part a long great railway facilities to north and south, easy to KL, thailand and singapore
Nice, but I suggest doing one video per topic, with examples. For example, one video just on health care costs & insurance (and examples). Another could be renting (and examples). A big need will be nursing homes as the majority of people in America, Canada, Australia and the UK are middle age or older...nursing homes are expensive AND terrible in these countries! Any options in Malaysia (and examples)?
It sounds like a great place but I'm sure it's not so simple to retire there as a foreigner (like in Bali). Do you know how much money is needed in your bank account in order to retire in Malaysia as a foreigner? I heard you need quite a large sum of money in your bank account in order to maintain your MM2H visa (long term visa for foreigners) as proof of your financial independence.
@@cryptobullflow- well this mjo guy is a very unsatisfied soul which gives a negative view to an appreciative visitors. He should open up and travel more to be an open minded person. When people praise what Malaysia can offer, why you need to contradict. What's your problem?
Penang is great for many retirees, especially the younger folks. They just want a base and travel often to other Southeast Asian countries. IMO, there's no bad choices in any SE Asia country.
Hope that you guys have had a good time and a pleasant stay in Penang, Malaysia.
Thank you, we had a fabulous time and are looking forward to coming again in the future! 😊

I’ve definitely got to visit Taiping or Ipoh next time, thanks for your comment friend. 😊
Great job 🎉
If I were to retire in Malaysia, Penang would be my only choice.
We loved Penang ❤
Foreigners can buy properties here at minimum 1m ringgit.

Pls go for sabah and sarawak mm2h
When u said extremely affordable.. the cost of living in USA or other western cities probably much much higher?😅

However many indonesians go to penang for medical services.
@mjo750 Indonesians are not known to be legal long term residents here. Most are labourers here doing construction or farming jobs.
Some people may not like penang coz too touristy.

Penang is too crowded; Langkawi is more suitable for retirement, it's more relax and detached from the rest of the world, tax free too
Thanks for you suggestion! I will add it to my places to visit. 😊
