Tips and Advice on Japan from Your Fellow Malaysian Expats

Obviously, expat life in Japan goes well beyond shipping your belongings and taking care of red tape. Socializing with fellow Malaysians is an important facet of living abroad and can be a huge stepping stone in getting to know the Japanese mentality and way of life. Malaysians in Japan are a part of our community, calling cities such as Sapporo, the Kansai Region, Tokyo, and many others home. You can use InterNations to look for fellow Malaysians in Tokyo, for example.
