What I like about Aki is he always gives balanced views on his experiences living in Malaysia... Unlike others who tend to overly praising Malaysia and only focusing on the great stuff just to kipas us Malaysians to the point that they are almost being fake... I've noticed that Japanese tend to have this quality to give honest and balanced views on Malaysia... Thanks Aki...
welcome to Malaysia Aki. When u say malaysia weather is like summer whole year thru and short n t-shirt is good, I laugh like mad. Been wearing more or less the same pants n shirt for few years... Lol.
@@akihibara6436 do you know Malay companies pay the lowest salary? My company (a Chinese company) pays a minimum of RM2600 for fresh University graduates with a basic bachelor degree and this includes all our Malay staff. While my nephew has a Master degree in Electrical engineering from UK only gets paid RM2800 in the GLCs he works at.
@@akihibara6436 most companies will pay what you ask for as and also depending on how well you present yourself at the interview. As an interviewer who use to work for a GLC Bank, I have interviewed hundreds of freahgrads. Normally Chinese will request more than Malays. Furthermore there are less Chinese candidates than Malays. Thus as a recruiter, we have more options for Malays and less for Chinese. As many positions require a mix of races, we will end up paying more for the Chinese candidate as got quota to fill (malay and Chinese) but less chinese to choose from.
I agree on the shirts. I have the same shirt since the last 2 years and it is still viable today. Fashion trends are only for the minority (fashion fans, rich people, high class students) so regular cheap clothes are always viable. Not to mention expensive clothes even tho its considered cheap in japan such as uniqlo shirts are considered mid range for malaysians. Shirts can get cheaper in the night market, ranging from rm5 to rm10, and better ones around rm15-rm20. If you want branded ones but cheap, you can always go for bundle stores. I have a lots of levi jeans in good condition and all i bought for rm10 a piece hehehe.
Yeah I agree, I only had like one short sleeve button shirt, a jacket and long sleeves shirt for sleeping in air conditioner those one of the three, are just for fashion or due to the weather
Nice one. Perhaps you could write your experience going to hospital in Malaysia. That would be nice cause as a healthcare professional, i would love to know foreigners’ point of view as well.
My uncle is a school gardener with around rm2000 salary. Choose a very humble life with his wife n 6 kids in a small 3 rooms flat house. His wife help to support the big family by supplying homemade karipap to a foodstall n school canteen. He manage to feed his family n send his eldest daughter to local university. Never complained n always grateful to Allah for everything...in fact still manage to share a bit of his earnings by doing sadaqah (voluntary charity). I guess once Allah give blessings to his servants... blissful life is more meaningful.
Hi salma. I notice that no matter how much your earn, you never feel enough when you do not know how to stop your desire. I’m glad your uncle are grateful about what he have and never ask more than he need.

Translate: We are thinking of local adoption in Malaysia. It was very helpful. As for taxes, I have to think carefully about when I join the company. Malaysia: The attractiveness of employment is the working environment and the condominium. It's just in Aki's video, but it's true!? I hate the workplace in Japan, so I like that laid-back environment. Of course, that's why I work properly!! With a focus on Malaysian life, I want to see some videos that give you 5 good and bad things!
Good analysis.. True.. depending on how they can make a living.. If foriengers also lower the standard of living to as much as the local's, they can survive as well as save money in Malaysia
Depends what type of employment you get. If you are employees just like japanese, you receive same salary, there are no different before you are foreigner. And you do need to pay expensive tax like japanese does.
Graduate or Starter starts from 250k to 300k yen a month. Small company same as above. Start-up, if you are specialize in certain position, usually starts from 500k a month. Almost same like Japan, if compare apple by apple. But convert, of course banyak lah.
Some tips for saving : 1.Many malaysian buy coway or cuckoo water dispenser to drink. It is safe. I pay about rm75 per month for the service. Rather than to buy water which more costly. 2. If you single, eating out daily is okay.. But if you already have family, preparing food at home daily are more saving.. =) 3. Just use fan if your home is not that hot.. Like my house, i only turn on the aircond during afternoon.. =) try to save as much as I can. Heheh
Glad I am early again! I like to watch aki albeit I already know about the things that he will said because he usually said something without bias. when it is bad, it is bad, when it is good, then it is good.
Malaysian people always think living cost in Japan is really high, but actually it's not that true. Average people in Japan go to cheap local supermarket, eat affordable meals for daily basis. Some items are sold even cheaper than Malaysian stores (stores in Japan always have huge discount!). Cheap things are really cheap in Malaysia, but if you want certain quality product, you have to pay more than in Japan... Cheap things in Japan may not be super cheap as Malaysia, but avarage quality you'll get is still good. So let's say if you want 'average good things in your life', living in Japan can even be cheaper!
Agreed, I am living in Japan too with an average fresh grad sal (japan), and I can eat outside everyday and still got money to spend. If you don't mind food, as in Japanese food, you can make do with what cheap stuff they have here! And not to mention most things can be conveniently bought and some more with quality at Daiso (not all things, got to research this myself) then you can make a rather comfortable average living here. That being said, the price gap between branded goods and all the good things Malaysian would definitely want to pay for are quite expensive assuming you love fashion, love popular anime goods, love to go watch movies, or even go touring Japan. That being said, it is just an estimate and assumption, there are certainly cases where you can get really good discounts and whatnot but that's not the average and most of the times queue in Japan are super long when it comes to sales, discounts or even popular eating spots! (Ichiran Ramen :'( )
@@Morphy888 well its kinda true since in japanese people care about quality. But again if you compare to K.L of course its big different because K.L usually 2x higher than other place. But again as you point of view about japan go to cheap local supermarket. The truth most malaysia alwyas low income, most of them actually always buy something cheap. But like you said cheap thing is always no good on quality. Living in japanese i think mostly that are costly is the rent. you cant get small size home that has 2-3 room with cheap price. In Malaysia you still can find houses under rm 500 with 3 bedroom and large living room except for K.L. You can cheap out on everything but it will be very very hard to cheap out on house. you can save money for food, car, living style but you need house to sleep and stay. But again if you compare K.L to other place it will big different. But it will be very hard to find company outside K.L that want to spend more than rm 5000 to hire japanese. how do you think Malaysian can survive living in K.L with salary of rm 2000.
TNB did nothing wrong dude. People are obviously staying at home 24/7 during MCO and it's extremely stupid to blame on 'meter problem' when customers are the ones consuming so much electricity. It's like you drive twice the distance than usual and blame Petronas for you petrol expenses.
@@spalderz I got no problem with TNB. TNB obviously already refund the overpriced billing. Bet there's must be a technical problem n reason too. No one blaming em.
Our tap water is safe for drinking but you still need to boil first. And because of the rusty old pipes, it's better to use water filter/purifier. Many of us use water dispenser eg Coway but the cost cautious people bought Panasonic, 3M etc without monthly commitment.
No our water is not safe to drink. If you have ever been to developed countries, only then will you know what "safe to drink" actually means. To Aki, what the locals do is usually buy a reasonably cheap filter with activated carbon (like from Panasonic) that costs less than RM 100, filter and boil the water. This would make it safe to drink and is better than drinking bottled water in the long run. Change the filter once every 6 months and you will be good.
@@FamousAnon he/she is correct and you are wrong. i worked in food industry and tap water is critical in food safety so i overseeing it to the lab. nothing came back off the chart. the problem lies with certain area with old delivering system. that's for sure
Before my husband know me, he tent to only go for expensive restaurant which he feel that is standard but after meeting me, I explained to him that is not standard for local and now he enjoying all type of local and others foods in Malaysia. Hope my husband can return back to Malaysia soon :’(
Really comprehensive. Good job. One thing that was left out was the internet upload and download speeds. Which is really important these (Covid) days, for video conferencing. I had a virtual physician's 'appointment recently, and had to have an adequate connection speed as a prerequisite.
in bintulu, some locals charge japanese RM3k rent for the whole terrace house when locals can get it for RM1.5k but i guess they are willing to pay that much for security. some people always set the rate high for foreigners since the city is flooding with a lot of foreigners working for O&G industry for the past years. hell...it's better to rent than buying a house in bintulu. a cute two-story terrace with tiny little yard can cost about RM500k up to RM700k. A semi detached house only costs RM180k back in 1990s and now it can go up to a mil ringgit in the suburb. A nice studio condo costs more than a mil to 5 mil in the middle of the city.
Gaji seorang expat Jepun yang harga RM7000 tu adalah bersamaan gaji seorang pekerja berumur 50-an, berjawatan pengurus, warga Malaysia, yang kerja di kilang Jepun.
Aki, TNB is not the only electrical source in Malaysia, we in Sarawak, Malaysia, have Sarawak Energy, same also Sabah, have their own electrical supply
Thanks Aki for introducing me to Japanese hairstylist. My son prefer Japanese haircut (too much of manga). So next time I can bring him there. Right now he is enjoying his long hair.
Thanks for sharing this piece of information. It makes me more confident to convince my Japanese friends to move to Malaysia. However, he has 2 kids and a housewife. If he earn only rm7-8k a month, he will need to live like a Malaysian already.
Not doable if he has 2 kids. Depending on their age, if they are young then maybe can enroll in local school? Can foreigners send their kids to local schools? I’m not sure. But if they are already schooling then he would need to send them to international school which will cost an arm and leg.
Aki, very interesting video but I'm sure the next question for young Japanese after watching your video is how can I get a job in Malaysia? What qualifications do I need? What type of jobs? It'd be interesting to know how you got your job and why they hired you instead of someone local. Was your ability to speak Japanese an added bonus in your job? Thx!
Mountain Guy most of Japanese living here is working either with Japanese company or japan support market, we dont steal your job. And why we been paid that much, Actually what Aki mention consider lowest range of salary. If it too low no one willing to travel out from Japan. Talking from japanese perspective here.
Actually for the TNB issue, it's not the meter issue. They did mention they throughout the MCO period, all the bills are estimated. Then on June, they then charge the proper amount (which is written in the bill - stated from February to June). Anyway, keep up all the good videos that you've been creating. :) Love your content.
I'm surprised to hear the cost of your haircut. I always bring my son to the local Indian barber in my residential area. Just a simple hair cut for my son just cost me RM 6. I admit that anything fancier in a nice salon would cost more. With rm 2000 as a single person yes you could live off comfortably with that amount.
True, as a Malay guy with very few reasons to go to a fancy salon my jaw dropped when I know how expensive a haircut + shampoo can be for Aki! I'm comfortable enough with my lil bro trimming my hair in his local kedai for RM8, thank you very much! 😂😂
I think your ethnicity plays a role in how much you're willing to spend on your hair. It's pretty normal for Chinese girls to spend RM 500 for haircut + coloring.
@@PassionPnofew years back, my friend, a chinese guy who is also a manager always in awe and had a laugh when he heard the other colleague, who is a Chinese lady who is also a manager spent RM300 for cutting n rebonding as he thinks that price is ridiculosly expensive..
@@نورعيني5103حسين my Chinese friend spends around that same price too, every month for hair maintenance. Trim, touch up coloring at the roots and hair relaxant. And not to mention manicure pedicure every month too, which costs around another 100+. That to me is crazy expensive! But to her it's not expensive (but complains she's always broke.. Lol..)
It depends on the company too. My ex company gave our Japanese staff an "allowance" around RM4-5k to work in KL while retaining their basic salary (in ¥）back in Japan. In addition, the company also paid for the apartment lease (around RM3-4k). I'm sure my ex Japanese colleagues in Msia saved more than RM4k. 1 Director even bought his own car (paid in full) to drive around!
Too many people do not understand how to calculate the TNB bill. The bill is actually not wrong. For June, the total includes the charges for the previous 3 months or so, so it's naturally higher, especially if you haven't pay for those months. If you did pay, TNB will offset your payment. Secondly, people underestimate the charges for air-con, especially if you turn them on regularly during MCO. If you exceed certain threshold for the tariff rate (above 300 kWh usage) per month, the charges can get very high very fast because it increases exponentially.
I wouldn't say our water is not purified enough but it's because of our old pipes. The water that comes from the water treatment plant is clean and actually safe to drink but the old, dirty and rusty pipes that deliver the water to our homes tend to affect the purity, taste and odour of the water. Also, you can just boil the water. I would consider buying water as expensive.
It reminds me of Gackt that bought a big bungalow in KL couple of years ago. Another consideration he moved to Malaysia is also because he enjoys the sunny weather. I
マレーシア就職を真剣に考えている者です。以前インスタでDMさせていただいた際もすごく親切に丁寧なお返信をいただき、今回の動画でもとても分かりやすく、リアルな情報をシェアしてくださっていて、いつもとても参考にさせていただいています。本当にありがとうございます！Thank you for sharing lots of information about Malaysia 🇲🇾 I’ve been thinking of going to work there like you do, so your videos help me a looot! Thanks again 🤩✨(But I think I should go there before July, it means... gotta wait for one more year 😂)
That's pretty accurate info for those who have in mind move to Malaysia.it might be hard for the first or second month but after make some local friend,i am pretty sure you will get used to live in Malaysia just like Aki
Wow RM7000!? Damn, now I know why so many Japanese people want to come to Malaysia😅 Most of the local people here only earn half of your income. You can live a pretty good life here with 7k.
A very fair comment. Of course there are cheaper alternatives. But what Aki is saying here is an average budget living in Kuala Lumpur. I've met Japanese living in Gombak and Sentul - and they conveniently using the public transport to KL. They tell me that it's a whole lot cheaper to live within this areas and very near to Kuala Lumpur. And definitely I prefer Digi than other carriers. It's also the cheapest roaming with high speed internet for a week for those travelling to Japan.
I think that rm450 charge for electircity is for 3 month,because i also received excessive bills so i checked it.The bill is for past 3 months but still overcharged a little bit
I think the TNB bill thing is not correct. They weren't overcharging, the workers cannot check your meter during MCO, so TNB was billing you using estimates for pre-MCO. The power consumption for most homes went up by a lot during the MCO, so when the actual meter reading came about... well there would be a large difference, and since the power charges is on a curve (if you exceed a certain number of units, the charge per unit is more!) then you will get a "shocking" bill.
Interesting. He doesn't make as much as I THOUGHT he'd be making (I'm used to expats in the oil industry, they make more than RM20,000 a month usually). His rent is about what I thought it'd be (it's more than what he'd pay for a room in a house, or packing 3-4 people in a condo, which is what a lot of young workers or students around KL do). I'm surprised about the haircuts - RM50 a haircut is EXPENSIVE by Malaysian standards, unless you go to fancy styling salons - the common Indian barber (they actually bring in the barbers from India!) costs RM12-13 a haircut (just had one yesterday). It was RM12 before the MCO, went up briefly for that first haircut AFTER the MCO (THAT was a relief, I tell you...) and seems to have gone back down to RM13. Considering I only get a haircut every 2 months or so it's not even worth considering as an expense. He spends a LOT more on food than I'm used to - I can eat breakfast for less than RM5 (roti telur bawang, thosai or iddly or similar with a teh C kosong), though I suppose I sometimes spend RM10 on a toast/eggs/tea set. Lunch would be maybe RM7 or 8 (a bowl of mee goreng maybe), dinner might be RM10 (though I rarely spend more than RM8). So RM30-35 a day is reasonable for local food. Drinking/cooking water? I'd say it's pure enough to drink, but most people are paranoid enough that they boil it first. Let it cool, store it in the fridge. If I buy drinking water I get the RM1 1.5 liter bottles from Tesco. I love the closing line - if you're young and broke and want to live a high-class life... ^_^ Note the expense he DOESN'T have, that's a major expense for a lot of young people - a car. If he wants a new Japanese car it's going to cost something like RM90,000 and up. If he wants an old beater (like I drive) it'd cost maybe RM10,000. Maintenance and petrol are cheap in comparison to the US (and Japan, I'd imagine) but it adds up. If he's living in KL, yeah, he really doesn't need a car - there's taxis and Grab, and there are commuter trains that go all over the place (though I suppose it's nothing like what you have in Tokyo). Still, I imagine the Grab bills will add up - maybe RM20 or so a day, RM300 or so a month...
Come to work for Japanese company here quickly, there are many of them operate in Malaysia. Don't worry about salary, you will be paid well with good benefits even though the cost of living is very low compare to Japan.
Based on fashion sense,i agree wholeheartedly..the lastime i wore fancy clothes to shop in KL is 2012-13 when i was still picking on girls haha..nowadays baju apek and suar pendek casual is my go thing and my wardrobe never changed since 2015,including my formal wears to work..baju tshirt pasar malam is always comfy to use and sometimes u guys can get it for rm20 for 3 pieces in berjaya times square✌️😄
My bro’s bill was rm 1800 and my cousin’s was rm 1900 lol and they paid every month as well. I think the errors are mainly those living in kl/Selangor. I live in Pahang and my bill had only a slight increase (about rm 10-20) which I think is not abnormal.
Malaysian earn relatively well. But they spend it irresponsibly. By having cheap accomodations and food they use the extra money to buy expensive cars. I pay less than 10% of my income for my car so I always have more for saving, investment and travel purposes.
Did you noticed that a lot of foreign workers in Malaysia because they are well paid. What more to say professional workers like you I'm sure you received awesome salary every month. I hope you like working in Malaysia.
Last time, my japanese boss, everthing co pay, apt, car, petrol, bills, entertainment and etc. Their salary also quite high, also they still get their salary in Japan. Salary in malaysia is consider allowance. All our japanese boss really enjoy their live during working in Malaysia. How lucky them compare to us. But they have to save their income to buy a property (hse) in japan which is very2 expensive compare to Malaysian property. Arigato!!
Well foreign talent company normally will pay from 5k and above. So most company will only take experience worker and some even offer managerial position for 7k. If you just have 1-2 years basically you are hired mostly for your niche specialty or language advantage. For local if your salary is 7k company has to fork out another 12% of the salary for employee pension fund(EPF) which for a foreign talent the company normally would not do that. A certain big company might pay EPF too for foreign talent (lucky case). Some company may offer other perks for valuable foreign talent. Bottom line here, it is all depends on industry and company. Now for fresh grad, doesnt matter you graduate from local or oversea, salary wise most likely the same but salary benchmark depends on your CGPA. If you r high flyers first class student for eg certain semicon company they will pay you 3k+ and as for second class upper they will pay you 2.8k. But this is 10 years ago salary benchmark and somehow when i refer again the salary report, the outlook is still the same till today. Some company dont care about your master or phd because the minimum req is degree. This is true in IT industry. Some companies do as my friend with master from UK got her first job for 3.5k 5 years ago in financial industry. Whereby in oil n gas industry graduate trainee with degree starting salary is from 3.5k till 4.5k. The point is most salary depends on the industry, company and certifications you hold. Eg, in semicon industry, accountancy or hr fresh grad may have lower starting salary than IT or engineering background. My knowledge might be limited as all my points are only based on the industries I've been in which are Semicon, O&G and IT.
Hi Aki, I think what you presented in this video is quite objective. May I understand from you as I am really very curious to find out that: (1) Is your overall standard of living improved after you relocated to Malaysia? (2) Are you able to achieve this amount of saving if you were to maintain this kind of living standard while working in Japan? I hope to get your reply. Thank you!
As for the price , its all depends on the demand, housing is cheaper here cause we have more area per square , Japan is slightly bigger (377,000km2) and Malaysia (330,000km2) but we only have 32,millions while Japan have 126million. So higher demand, limited resources causing the price to skyrocketed. Same with water, fuel, electricity. But for Malaysian it is expensive because of the min salary (most of the employers) dont want to pay more but they earned hella a lot.. pos malaysia ceo earned hundred thousands per months while their workers earned 1,200-1,500.
4k a month...syukur la kalau dapat keja mcm tu.(lol) Since I am working in this national Carrier(MAS). My job as an Officer,my salary barely reach 3k.ni lagi tambah pula Covid 19 ni. Tapi besyukur ngan apa yg ada dan still ada job(for now,tak tau lg esok dan lusa).
The best part is I think malaysia has best accommodations/ condo/hotels . I’ve seen most of the hotel in Japan 5 star hotel but the room is so small. You can get a cheaper price 5star hotel huge room in malaysia lol . I still prefer japan anyway P.s I’m malaysian
The bill you receive is 3 month bill from tnb because during mco. No official came to take the reading so bill is not process how you going to paid the bill?
@@donaldtrump6600 TNB should just write it BIG CAPITAL LETTER there that it is 3 MONTHS amount. anyway, i think fair to give discount too as the fuel gets very cheap. TNB shld lower the rate if the fuel price gets lower.

Cuz tnb dun bill them during mco..(if the bill issued is super high, the company might sue tnb as there is activity during mco)also why did my bill go so high?

Hi Aki, Thank you for your insight about living in Malaysia. I would like to better understand about salary of a small family to live in Tokyo? What’s is the average range salary to able to live in a 2LDK, basic food, commuting to work & back, home ultilities (eg internet, electric, water, gas), insurance, medical & able to save. Also, what’s the taxation like in Japan?
Living expenses are probably the same as in Malaysia. The Japanese are always saving money. The cost of food for some households is RM1500. When I lived, I lived with two people and the food cost was RM1200. Eating out is a little expensive. However, the rent is very high. 2LDK (750sqft) is RM8000 in the city Other than that, it's probably not much different from Malaysia. But, Japan is a country with super heavy taxation. Gasoline will be tripled, and all taxes such as income tax, inhabitant tax, consumption tax and inheritance tax will be borne.
Talking about minimum wage in Malaysia really hurt my heart. My international friends will be on 5 star restaurant for breakfast lunch and dinner then spending gucci bag for 350myr like its 35myr. I would like to exprience that kind of luxurious life but with my humble second class citizen status, it's better to stick with steam chicken rice for rm2.00
I doubt with the salary he mentioned, it would be possible to enjoy "5 star restaurant for breakfast lunch and dinner". Every meal would set you back at least RM 50, with perhaps RM70 being the average. That would be RM 6k a month. Even with RM 20k a month, you won't be spending this kind of money. It is easy for those lower earning people to make general statements, e.g. those earning 3k would think everyone earning more than 5k is very rich. But making these kinds of statements is like saying all Malays are lazy and Chinese are greedy. There is a whole range of income earners, from a 3k point of view those earning 10k and 20k falls in the same category. But I can assure you the same view would be prevalent for those earning RM 1.5k. They would think those earning RM 3k and RM 6k is the same.
We Malaysian still enough with RM2000 if still single and not married. If we get married we also need around RM6000... To make sure life is comfortable. So we always do a part time job or make an online sales to earn money

Malaysia: The attractiveness of employment is the working environment and the condominium. It's just in Aki's video, but it's true!? I hate the workplace in Japan, so I like that laid-back environment. Of course, that's why I work properly!!

Good analysis.. True.. depending on how they can make a living.. If foriengers also lower the standard of living to as much as the local's, they can survive as well as save money in Malaysia
Aki, you are always being positive about Malaysia. Thank you so much!
The real question is:
How much money does a Malaysian make in a month in Japan?
That is like changing from easy to hard mode. Why would you do that? Hahaha
Acapsayo betul tu.. mcm aki cakap rm2000 kat malaysia sama dgn 200000yen kat jepun
Depends what type of employment you get. If you are employees just like japanese, you receive same salary, there are no different before you are foreigner. And you do need to pay expensive tax like japanese does.
Graduate or Starter starts from 250k to 300k yen a month.
Small company same as above.
Start-up, if you are specialize in certain position, usually starts from 500k a month.
Almost same like Japan, if compare apple by apple.
But convert, of course banyak lah.
i think youtuber ridzbored answered this question before.
話が端的でわかりやすいです！ありがとうございます！
いつも動画拝見しております。
具体的かつわかりやすい説明でした👍参考にさせていただきます😁
Thank you Aki...makes me feel very appreciative of what i have here in Malaysia...also very good info
Some tips for saving :
1.Many malaysian buy coway or cuckoo water dispenser to drink. It is safe. I pay about rm75 per month for the service. Rather than to buy water which more costly.
2. If you single, eating out daily is okay.. But if you already have family, preparing food at home daily are more saving.. =)
3. Just use fan if your home is not that hot.. Like my house, i only turn on the aircond during afternoon.. =) try to save as much as I can. Heheh
just self-service zoomer /s
that not a excuse to live as normal. its not normal if do it until old age.
Glad I am early again!
I like to watch aki albeit I already know about the things that he will said because he usually said something without bias. when it is bad, it is bad, when it is good, then it is good.
Malaysian people always think living cost in Japan is really high, but actually it's not that true. Average people in Japan go to cheap local supermarket, eat affordable meals for daily basis. Some items are sold even cheaper than Malaysian stores (stores in Japan always have huge discount!).
Cheap things are really cheap in Malaysia, but if you want certain quality product, you have to pay more than in Japan... Cheap things in Japan may not be super cheap as Malaysia, but avarage quality you'll get is still good. So let's say if you want 'average good things in your life', living in Japan can even be cheaper!
@Fernandez Martinez you miss the whole point
@Fernandez Martinez
I'm the Japanese audience here lol
And I fond out living cost in KL is not that cheap leh...
Agreed, I am living in Japan too with an average fresh grad sal (japan), and I can eat outside everyday and still got money to spend. If you don't mind food, as in Japanese food, you can make do with what cheap stuff they have here! And not to mention most things can be conveniently bought and some more with quality at Daiso (not all things, got to research this myself) then you can make a rather comfortable average living here. That being said, the price gap between branded goods and all the good things Malaysian would definitely want to pay for are quite expensive assuming you love fashion, love popular anime goods, love to go watch movies, or even go touring Japan. That being said, it is just an estimate and assumption, there are certainly cases where you can get really good discounts and whatnot but that's not the average and most of the times queue in Japan are super long when it comes to sales, discounts or even popular eating spots! (Ichiran Ramen :'( )
Fernandez Martinez i suggest you read more so you understand what people write. You look uneducated
@@Morphy888 well its kinda true since in japanese people care about quality. But again if you compare to K.L of course its big different because K.L usually 2x higher than other place. But again as you point of view about japan go to cheap local supermarket. The truth most malaysia alwyas low income, most of them actually always buy something cheap. But like you said cheap thing is always no good on quality. Living in japanese i think mostly that are costly is the rent. you cant get small size home that has 2-3 room with cheap price. In Malaysia you still can find houses under rm 500 with 3 bedroom and large living room except for K.L. You can cheap out on everything but it will be very very hard to cheap out on house. you can save money for food, car, living style but you need house to sleep and stay. But again if you compare K.L to other place it will big different. But it will be very hard to find company outside K.L that want to spend more than rm 5000 to hire japanese. how do you think Malaysian can survive living in K.L with salary of rm 2000.

Love how you pointed about the TNB issues 💕
TNB did nothing wrong dude. People are obviously staying at home 24/7 during MCO and it's extremely stupid to blame on 'meter problem' when customers are the ones consuming so much electricity. It's like you drive twice the distance than usual and blame Petronas for you petrol expenses.
@@spalderz I got no problem with TNB. TNB obviously already refund the overpriced billing. Bet there's must be a technical problem n reason too. No one blaming em.
Our tap water is safe for drinking but you still need to boil first. And because of the rusty old pipes, it's better to use water filter/purifier. Many of us use water dispenser eg Coway but the cost cautious people bought Panasonic, 3M etc without monthly commitment.
No our water is not safe to drink. If you have ever been to developed countries, only then will you know what "safe to drink" actually means.
To Aki, what the locals do is usually buy a reasonably cheap filter with activated carbon (like from Panasonic) that costs less than RM 100, filter and boil the water. This would make it safe to drink and is better than drinking bottled water in the long run. Change the filter once every 6 months and you will be good.
@@FamousAnon he/she is correct and you are wrong. i worked in food industry and tap water is critical in food safety so i overseeing it to the lab. nothing came back off the chart.

in bintulu, some locals charge japanese RM3k rent for the whole terrace house when locals can get it for RM1.5k but i guess they are willing to pay that much for security. some people always set the rate high for foreigners since the city is flooding with a lot of foreigners working for O&G industry for the past years.
hell...it's better to rent than buying a house in bintulu. a cute two-story terrace with tiny little yard can cost about RM500k up to RM700k. A semi detached house only costs RM180k back in 1990s and now it can go up to a mil ringgit in the suburb. A nice studio condo costs more than a mil to 5 mil in the middle of the city.
Well yeah the houses in Sabah and Sarawak are quite expensive . It’s ridiculous. Peninsular malaysia is cheaper. Buy house in KL

Thanks for sharing this piece of information. It makes me more confident to convince my Japanese friends to move to Malaysia. However, he has 2 kids and a housewife. If he earn only rm7-8k a month, he will need to live like a Malaysian already.
Whats so bad abt living like a malaysian in malaysia? Foreigners always expect to become elitist in this country and. Look down on locals
Not doable if he has 2 kids. Depending on their age, if they are young then maybe can enroll in local school? Can foreigners send their kids to local schools? I’m not sure. But if they are already schooling then he would need to send them to international school which will cost an arm and leg.
Aki, teach us how to learn Japanese the way we learn malay or english plz 🙏
Aki, very interesting video but I'm sure the next question for young Japanese after watching your video is how can I get a job in Malaysia? What qualifications do I need? What type of jobs? It'd be interesting to know how you got your job and why they hired you instead of someone local. Was your ability to speak Japanese an added bonus in your job? Thx!
are you japanese?
Mountain Guy most of Japanese living here is working either with Japanese company or japan support market, we dont steal your job. And why we been paid that much, Actually what Aki mention consider lowest range of salary. If it too low no one willing to travel out from Japan. Talking from japanese perspective here.
Actually for the TNB issue, it's not the meter issue. They did mention they throughout the MCO period, all the bills are estimated. Then on June, they then charge the proper amount (which is written in the bill - stated from February to June). Anyway, keep up all the good videos that you've been creating. :) Love your content.

I'm surprised to hear the cost of your haircut. I always bring my son to the local Indian barber in my residential area. Just a simple hair cut for my son just cost me RM 6. I admit that anything fancier in a nice salon would cost more. With rm 2000 as a single person yes you could live off comfortably with that amount.
True, as a Malay guy with very few reasons to go to a fancy salon my jaw dropped when I know how expensive a haircut + shampoo can be for Aki! I'm comfortable enough with my lil bro trimming my hair in his local kedai for RM8, thank you very much! 😂😂
I think your ethnicity plays a role in how much you're willing to spend on your hair. It's pretty normal for Chinese girls to spend RM 500 for haircut + coloring.

@@PassionPnofew years back, my friend, a chinese guy who is also a manager always in awe and had a laugh when he heard the other colleague, who is a Chinese lady who is also a manager spent RM300 for cutting n rebonding as he thinks that price is ridiculosly expensive..
@@نورعيني5103حسين my Chinese friend spends around that same price too, every month for hair maintenance. Trim, touch up coloring at the roots and hair relaxant.

It depends on the company too. My ex company gave our Japanese staff an "allowance" around RM4-5k to work in KL while retaining their basic salary (in ¥）back in Japan. In addition, the company also paid for the apartment lease (around RM3-4k). I'm sure my ex Japanese colleagues in Msia saved more than RM4k. 1 Director even bought his own car (paid in full) to drive around!

Too many people do not understand how to calculate the TNB bill. The bill is actually not wrong. For June, the total includes the charges for the previous 3 months or so, so it's naturally higher, especially if you haven't pay for those months. If you did pay, TNB will offset your payment. Secondly, people underestimate the charges for air-con, especially if you turn them on regularly during MCO. If you exceed certain threshold for the tariff rate (above 300 kWh usage) per month, the charges can get very high very fast because it increases exponentially.
I wouldn't say our water is not purified enough but it's because of our old pipes. The water that comes from the water treatment plant is clean and actually safe to drink but the old, dirty and rusty pipes that deliver the water to our homes tend to affect the purity, taste and odour of the water.
Also, you can just boil the water. I would consider buying water as expensive.
Yeke. Lol x lah. Klau sye bgi awk paip baru semua pon nk ke minum air klorin tu
Boiling the water kills the bacteria, but you can't kill metals and chemicals.
It reminds me of Gackt that bought a big bungalow in KL couple of years ago. Another consideration he moved to Malaysia is also because he enjoys the sunny weather. I

Yea man but if you try the better haircut around rm30 its actually quite syiok😂
someone drop the nuke
A very fair comment. Of course there are cheaper alternatives. But what Aki is saying here is an average budget living in Kuala Lumpur. I've met Japanese living in Gombak and Sentul - and they conveniently using the public transport to KL. They tell me that it's a whole lot cheaper to live within this areas and very near to Kuala Lumpur.
And definitely I prefer Digi than other carriers. It's also the cheapest roaming with high speed internet for a week for those travelling to Japan.

Lawa rambut Aki San👍
Can u make a video of how's the living standard in japan? Like fresh graduate salary and monthly expense, as compared to Malaysia
I think the TNB bill thing is not correct. They weren't overcharging, the workers cannot check your meter during MCO, so TNB was billing you using estimates for pre-MCO. The power consumption for most homes went up by a lot during the MCO, so when the actual meter reading came about... well there would be a large difference, and since the power charges is on a curve (if you exceed a certain number of units, the charge per unit is more!) then you will get a "shocking" bill.
Interesting. He doesn't make as much as I THOUGHT he'd be making (I'm used to expats in the oil industry, they make more than RM20,000 a month usually). His rent is about what I thought it'd be (it's more than what he'd pay for a room in a house, or packing 3-4 people in a condo, which is what a lot of young workers or students around KL do). I'm surprised about the haircuts - RM50 a haircut is EXPENSIVE by Malaysian standards, unless you go to fancy styling salons - the common Indian barber (they actually bring in the barbers from India!) costs RM12-13 a haircut (just had one yesterday). It was RM12 before the MCO, went up briefly for that first haircut AFTER the MCO (THAT was a relief, I tell you...) and seems to have gone back down to RM13. Considering I only get a haircut every 2 months or so it's not even worth considering as an expense. He spends a LOT more on food than I'm used to - I can eat breakfast for less than RM5 (roti telur bawang, thosai or iddly or similar with a teh C kosong), though I suppose I sometimes spend RM10 on a toast/eggs/tea set. Lunch would be maybe RM7 or 8 (a bowl of mee goreng maybe), dinner might be RM10 (though I rarely spend more than RM8). So RM30-35 a day is reasonable for local food. Drinking/cooking water? I'd say it's pure enough to drink, but most people are paranoid enough that they boil it first. Let it cool, store it in the fridge. If I buy drinking water I get the RM1 1.5 liter bottles from Tesco. I love the closing line - if you're young and broke and want to live a high-class life... ^_^ Note the expense he DOESN'T have, that's a major expense for a lot of young people - a car. If he wants a new Japanese car it's going to cost something like RM90,000 and up. If he wants an old beater (like I drive) it'd cost maybe RM10,000. Maintenance and petrol are cheap in comparison to the US (and Japan, I'd imagine) but it adds up. If he's living in KL, yeah, he really doesn't need a car - there's taxis and Grab, and there are commuter trains that go all over the place (though I suppose it's nothing like what you have in Tokyo). Still, I imagine the Grab bills will add up - maybe RM20 or so a day, RM300 or so a month...
Very informative video.

Last time, my japanese boss, everthing co pay, apt, car, petrol, bills, entertainment and etc. Their salary also quite high, also they still get their salary in Japan. Salary in malaysia is consider allowance. All our japanese boss really enjoy their live during working in Malaysia. How lucky them compare to us. But they have to save their income to buy a property (hse) in japan which is very2 expensive compare to Malaysian property. Arigato!!
Well foreign talent company normally will pay from 5k and above. So most company will only take experience worker and some even offer managerial position for 7k. If you just have 1-2 years basically you are hired mostly for your niche specialty or language advantage. For local if your salary is 7k company has to fork out another 12% of the salary for employee pension fund(EPF) which for a foreign talent the company normally would not do that. A certain big company might pay EPF too for foreign talent (lucky case). Some company may offer other perks for valuable foreign talent. Bottom line here, it is all depends on industry and company.
Now for fresh grad, doesnt matter you graduate from local or oversea, salary wise most likely the same but salary benchmark depends on your CGPA. If you r high flyers first class student for eg certain semicon company they will pay you 3k+ and as for second class upper they will pay you 2.8k. But this is 10 years ago salary benchmark and somehow when i refer again the salary report, the outlook is still the same till today.
Some company dont care about your master or phd because the minimum req is degree. This is true in IT industry. Some companies do as my friend with master from UK got her first job for 3.5k 5 years ago in financial industry. Whereby in oil n gas industry graduate trainee with degree starting salary is from 3.5k till 4.5k.
The point is most salary depends on the industry, company and certifications you hold. Eg, in semicon industry, accountancy or hr fresh grad may have lower starting salary than IT or engineering background. My knowledge might be limited as all my points are only based on the industries I've been in which are Semicon, O&G and IT.
Hi Aki, I think what you presented in this video is quite objective. May I understand from you as I am really very curious to find out that: (1) Is your overall standard of living improved after you relocated to Malaysia? (2) Are you able to achieve this amount of saving if you were to maintain this kind of living standard while working in Japan? I hope to get your reply. Thank you!
Yeayy I'm early againnn
As for the price , its all depends on the demand, housing is cheaper here cause we have more area per square , Japan is slightly bigger (377,000km2) and Malaysia (330,000km2) but we only have 32,millions while Japan have 126million. So higher demand, limited resources causing the price to skyrocketed. Same with water, fuel, electricity. But for Malaysian it is expensive because of the min salary (most of the employers) dont want to pay more but they earned hella a lot.. pos malaysia ceo earned hundred thousands per months while their workers earned 1,200-1,500.

The Japanese are always saving money.
The cost of food for some households is RM1500.
When I lived, I lived with two people and the food cost was RM1200.
Eating out is a little expensive.
However, the rent is very high.
2LDK (750sqft) is RM8000 in the city
Other than that, it's probably not much different from Malaysia.
But, Japan is a country with super heavy taxation.
Gasoline will be tripled, and all taxes such as income tax, inhabitant tax, consumption tax and inheritance tax will be borne.
I am studying for my tax and macroeconomics exam lol🤣

Curious to know if a monthly Salary of nearly 16K gross is considered enough for two in KL region. Let's say for someone in his early 30's. Thx
Talking about minimum wage in Malaysia really hurt my heart. My international friends will be on 5 star restaurant for breakfast lunch and dinner then spending gucci bag for 350myr like its 35myr. I would like to exprience that kind of luxurious life but with my humble second class citizen status, it's better to stick with steam chicken rice for rm2.00
Bitter reality...
@@kantokun12 that's okay, our mamak is the best anyways 😂 love our ane
I doubt with the salary he mentioned, it would be possible to enjoy "5 star restaurant for breakfast lunch and dinner". Every meal would set you back at least RM 50, with perhaps RM70 being the average. That would be RM 6k a month. Even with RM 20k a month, you won't be spending this kind of money.
It is easy for those lower earning people to make general statements, e.g. those earning 3k would think everyone earning more than 5k is very rich. But making these kinds of statements is like saying all Malays are lazy and Chinese are greedy. There is a whole range of income earners, from a 3k point of view those earning 10k and 20k falls in the same category. But I can assure you the same view would be prevalent for those earning RM 1.5k. They would think those earning RM 3k and RM 6k is the same.
i am really interested to know where you can find steam chicken rice for RM2
You guys pick the wrong career path. I'm Malaysian and I make at least RM 5000 a month as a fresh grad musician.
Wait, what does most Japanese people work as in Malaysia? Also, what is Aki's job?
床屋は、インド系と中国系と大別されるが１０～１５リンギ（カット・襟ぞり）で可。カットの腕は信頼できる、ローカルカットといえば、即OK 。現地化するなら、郷に入っては郷に従えの考え方でオーダーもある。ただし、医療費は高い、入院保証費はいきなり５０００リンギで、蓄えは必要。
We Malaysian still enough with RM2000 if still single and not married. If we get married we also need around RM6000... To make sure life is comfortable. So we always do a part time job or make an online sales to earn money
Japanese also cannot calculate how TNB Bill is done for this MCO☺
