    Congratulations Taylor! Your appointment is an unbelievable value compare to what I am renting here in Southern California. I am sure you will turn it into an even more beautiful place after moving in. I am planning to retire in 8 more years. After my recent trip to Malaysia, I hope someday I will be able to live in KL as well! You are blessed!

    Looks good Taylor. For the windows facing the hot sun, I suggest you have 3M Window Film put on the glass as it has high UV and heat protection. With the film on the windows, you could leave the curtains open to let in all the light, but not the heat. Here in Florida I have my windows with the 3M protective film. Works great.

      V-Kool is better, just more expensive. That said, all glass used in Malaysian building like this is heavily tinted. The real problem is the poor standard of construction with external walls made with single 4" brick with render on the outside and inside. They heat up in direct sun and stay warm long after the sun goes down.

    i think your new place is perfect. some distance away from the city centre so there's the serenity and peace yet able to enjoy the city view well, along with the almost untouched amenities. i am staying right in the middle in the city centre since 2019 thinking i got the best spot, but almost every late night has been horrendous with car/bike revving sounds and club/bar beats which disrupt my good sleep. i have been trying to sell my place but no buyer/tenant so far thus i have to live with it for now. do enjoy your new place and have a good long stay there. cheers

    Great preview. For cooking you can easily buy another portable electric induction stove & put it anywhere on the counter or store it until you need it. You could also use it as a tabletop stove for steamboat/hotpot/fondue or whatever takes your fancy, wherever you want - including at the poolside BBQ or wherever there are power outlets. Look forward to your move & after video. Some tall plants at the corner can also help to block the afternoon glare. Plastic lining for the curtains can help to cut heat ingress, if it is a problem later.

    WOW,, what a gorgeous apartment, I love it, and especially love your night view.
    Even with lease renewal increases how high could it possibly go from a starring rent of $600.
    I'm in..
    If I were to move again I'd definitely visit Koala Lampur to see firsthand what's what, and make some arrangements.
    I love cooking, 2 burners are no problem. UA-camrs on cooking channels use these portable electric burners, grills, and fry pans, and you certainly have space for a portable burner.
    Perfection would be a cafe and a couple of restaurants in the building's street level storefronts.
    I'd want to install a filtration systems for the apartment water supply,
    Looking real good there in Koala Lampur, Andrew.
    Looking forward to seeing your living space after you get your furniture in, and hearing further critiques.
    Stay well, stay strong.
    May peace, kindness, and compassion soon be the law of the land.

      That's a great idea for cooler weather.
      That'd be great for cooking outside when outside is not swelteringly hot.
      Here in Puerto Rico I thought I wanted an outside stove and Hubby got a gas stove for me.
      Mostly, it's too hot outside to use it.
      The only time it gets used is when our electricity goes out and it's time for coffee.
      Otherwise, when there's no electricity Hubby goes for take-out from our local restaurants.
      Great idea, though.
