The benefits of interning in Malaysia

Malaysia truly Asia

As Malaysia is one of Australia’s closest neighbours and trading partners, an understanding of its culture and contacts will stand you in good stead for your future career. With its standard of living being lower than Australia’s makes being an intern or student here more affordable.

Kuala Lumpur's geographic location and its home to Air Asia makes it an excellent base to explore other parts of Asia during your time off or at the end of your internship.

Accommodation was a big problem. There are several options including websites with people looking for flatmates. Depending on the location of your placement, staying in university accommodation could be an option but make sure you give your self plenty time because those spots fill fast. There are also plenty of serviced apartments and while they are more expensive (some are cheaper than the Australia equivalent they are a good place to stay if you are really stuck. While finding somewhere to stay may seem a little daunting, the process defiantly adds to the satisfaction of knowing that you can make it overseas.  

But whatever happens, you will have an amazing time is this interesting part of the world!!
