      @@sultrys2291 yeah.. Have you guys haven't learned anything from the history and current situation what was happened in most Islamic country around the world? Tengok isu stockin dah la berapa puluh tahun bila jadi kes minta maaf, jadi kes minta maaf lepas tu setel. Dan tak lupa juga bagi la muka lagi teruskan kewujudan sekolah vernakular, dari kecik ajar sekolah asing2, bila anak2 keturunan pendatang buta tak pandai saling hormat budaya dan agama masyarakat setempat mula kecoh konon itu ini jadi punca perkauman dan agama. Padahal silap sendiri terlampau Bagi Muka. Kononnya kami berbangga dgn sifat toleransi.. Islam mmg ajar toleransi tapi bukan sampai menggadai marua sendiri dgn cara bagi muka berkali2. Cukup setakat batas bagi kamu agama kamu dan bagi kami agama kami. Ini raya dorang pon ada jug melayu menggelupur nak sambut, walhal perbuatan tersebut boleh menyebabkan berlaku kegelinciran akidah. Toleransi konon.. piiirah!!
      Dan aku nak tanya selama korang semua ni follow channel Saleh Family ni apa yg korang pelajari dari pejalanan hidup dia dan kenapa di pilih Malaysia? Cuba tanya tokoh2 Islam lain sperti Dr Zakir Naik knp dia pilih Malaysia? Dek kerana masih ada kelompok yg jaga batas2 toleransi lah maka Islam terus berkembang semakin kukuh di Malaysia dan orang2 bukan Islam boleh menikmati keamanan dan kemakmuran ekonomi. Kalau tidak Saleh Family takkan pilih Malaysia andai nilai2 Islam dan kekeluargaan Islam hilang dari masyarakat Islam Malaysia sendiri akibat terlalu toleransi sampai dipijak kepala. Cuba korang belajar dari pengalaman hidup Saleh Family sendiri apa yg mereka lalui di Kanada bagaimana kehidupan mereka sbg muslim diancam kerana sokong Palestin dan memakai hijab. Kat Malaysia ni orang letak nama Allah kat stokin pon nak toleransi lagi ke?

      @@anakhamba You are using bits and pieces to generalise. Islam is never a pacifist religion. When people do bad things to you (eg sock issue), you get up and defend. Nobody is against that. But that doesn't warrant an unprovoked attack to other non-muslims who live peacefully with the rest of the Muslims.
      As for your examples, put the blame on Muslims parents who failed to educate their children.
      Is it the non-muslims' fault for the mat rempit, bohsia, enagih dadah, peminta sedekah? Some of them are "muslims" unfortunately.
      Is it the non-muslims fault for the greedy "islamic" or "malay" politicians, rasuah/bribery, laziness, curi tulang waktu bekerja?
      Tolerant doesn't mean you have to celebrate their religions or celebrations. Tolerance is letting them practice their own religion without hostility.
      Pointing fingers to others for your own failure is an act of hostility. That is just an example of laziness, bad heart, envy/hasad and greed. Islamic ke tu?
      * satu sebab mengapa orang bukan melayu tidak mahu masuk islam adalah kerana sikap orang melayu itu sendiri yang menjatuhkan nama baik ugama. Tak perlu salahkan mereka.

      this is true! been living here in Abu dhabi for 11yrs now and I can say that we are more islamic in my village in Philippines than the people who were born arabic and muslims. and it is very sad how they are silent about whats happening in Palestine, I know they’re helping in some ways but I dont think thats enough because they can do much more if they wanted. also the ramadhan here we can’t feel it anymore bcoz they removed some restrictions, the expats don’t respect the ramadan like they used to. the only good thing here now is safe. Abu Dhabi is more conservative than Dubai but it's becoming like Dubai😢

If you want to live in quiet nature environment east malaysia is the place. If you want to live in town near to the beach i would suggest kuantan, pahang. Arabs expat if im not mistaken usually stay at cyberjaya, serdang or nearby bukit bintang. if you want to buy a house it starts from rm1 million (gov policy) or around 220k usd. rental would be around 350usd (condos) - 1200 usd ( golf and country club). medical insurance is a bit tricky to explain. you can check youtubers like andrew taylor who have spoke about this.

    Alternative places that more conservative and Islamic in UAE are Sharjah or even Abu Dhabi and other emirates; Al Ain, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujeira, Ajman or neighbouring Oman. Dubai basically like a totally different country on its own to cater to westerners and riches only, less than 20% are Emiratis.

Maybe some of your cons are good for us to change our way or maybe dont. We will never know if we dont know your point of view. If we feel it as someting we cant adapt it in our society, atleast we know our cons so we can make/prepare another option for foreigner maybe using our own way, our own tradition.

    Malaysia is also our top choice and we will be moving there next year. Dubai has it's pros and cons, but the cons outweight the pros for us too. It's clean, super safe in Dubai, and is a breath of fresh air compared to Dubai, but the summer is deathly there, the sheer amount of inappropriate clothing and Ukrainian and Russian women doing 'work' there is also very unnerving. I also felt that it wasn't as 'Islamic' as Dubai has been in the past. It's changed a lot in the last 5 years.

    If my family moved to Malaysia the starting salary for my child once they had a degree would be around $1500 a month. This is significantly lower than the average salary of other developed countries like the United States, Hong Kong, South Korea, Singapore, and the United Kingdom.
