1. Daily Life Guidance for Studying in Malaysia
1, hot climate
Malaysia is located in the tropics, with a hot climate and high temperature all year round. More importantly, ultraviolet radiation is extremely strong, so we need to pay attention to sun protection on sunny days. In Malaysia, sunscreen is essential, and in order to ensure the quality of sunscreen, we need a sunscreen with higher sunscreen intensity, like this one I used, which is 50 times that of the first sunscreen!
In addition, in Malaysia, people also use physical sun protection, such as wearing long-sleeved clothes to protect the whole upper body and wearing accessories such as sun hats to cover their faces.
Finally, Malaysia is located at the equator. It rains all the year round and often comes without warning. Therefore, most local people will carry folding umbrellas and other items with them to prevent them from getting wet!
2. Transportation facilities
In Malaysia, the three means of transportation that we use the longest when traveling are: subway and other rail transit, Grab and bus.
Kuala Lumpur's rail transit is spread all over the corner, serving the whole Klang Valley area in Malaysia. Today, the operating lines include three light rail lines and a monorail. The total length of the four lines is about 159.2km, and the operation time will last from 6 am to 12 pm.
In fact, these four routes are fast and convenient enough to meet the daily travel of locals and even international students. It is priced in sections, which is very economical. According to my experience, the average trip of/kloc-0 only needs about 3 horses, but it only takes 20 minutes. There are no traffic jams and other problems, which is very suitable for international students to choose transportation.
Secondly, there are buses. Malaysia's public transport system is also perfect. There are many lines in every city. Compared with other types of vehicles, it covers a wider, denser and more grounded area. Under the bus stop, we can see people waiting for the bus everywhere.
3. Online shopping
Now online shopping in Malaysia has developed very well. Integrated e-commerce platforms include Lazada and Shopee, fruits and vegetables can be purchased with Happy Fresh, and Watson and Sephora also have online apps. Whatever you want to buy, you can do it through the internet. Safe, convenient, fast and convenient, and meets the needs of the public. You just need to place an order anytime, anywhere! Takeaway software also includes gourmet pandas and hundreds of takeaways. They accept Alipay payment and cash on delivery, which is more convenient for international students!
4. Method of payment
With the development of e-commerce in Malaysia, online payment methods have been enriched and matured. WeChat payment, Alipay payment and UnionPay payment are being accepted by more stores. In addition, Malaysia also has its own online payment software, such as Touch and Go, Boost, Grabpay and Shoppe pay, so that more users can pay in more scenarios.
2. Pay attention to common sense when studying in Malaysia.
1, entry requirements
To study in Malaysia, international students need to apply for an international student visa in Malaysia. Only by holding a student visa and a national passport can you enter the country smoothly.
2. Admission procedures
Royal Malaysian Customs stipulates that foreigners should take preventive measures before entering Malaysia if they come from areas where various infectious diseases are prevalent. As for the duty-free items that can be brought into the country, the Royal Malaysian Customs stipulates that international students can bring 225g tobacco or cigars, 200 cigarettes or alcoholic products1L.
3. Exchange
Currency exchange in Malaysia is very convenient. International students can exchange money at major banks or authorized money dealers. If they bring traveler's checks, they can also ask the bank to change them into ringgit, but they need to show their passports when changing them. If international students travel or study in remote areas of Malaysia, they need to change money in advance.
Step 4 tip habits
Malaysians, like China people, are not used to tipping waiters. This is mainly because hotels or restaurants in Malaysia usually charge 65,438+00% of the guest's consumption directly as a service charge. If individual consumption places clearly indicate that extra service fees need to be paid, international students can tip the waiter 65,438+00%. As for the objects of tipping, they are mainly hotel service personnel and porters, while doormen and drivers rarely need to tip.
3. Employment direction after studying in Malaysia
I. Resumption of work
The proportion of overseas students returning to China is very high, because there are relatives and friends in China, familiar environment and various welfare policies. For everyone, the work will adapt faster, and the background of studying abroad can give you extra points.
There is little difference in national conditions. At the university of Malaysia, the professional skills learned are basically not hindered in applying in China. When applying for a job, you can directly use academic materials and internship experience, and your competitiveness is still relatively large.
Second, local job hunting.
It is also a good choice to stay in Malaysia directly, so you don't need a notarized degree after graduation, just prepare your resume and submit your application directly. There are many companies to choose from, and it will be more advantageous if you have internship experience.
In addition to professional strength, there is also a language advantage. There will be many Chinese-funded enterprises and foreign-funded enterprises here. Students who have a good foundation in both Chinese and English are very popular in many enterprises and will have the opportunity to transfer to other branches in the future.
Third, the third country.
1. Continuing education
After finishing their studies, many students will choose to continue their studies, and European and American countries with higher teaching level will be everyone's first choice. At this time, the requirements for Malaysian universities to submit applications will be relatively low, especially in terms of language.
Moreover, many schools will cooperate with other countries to carry out joint courses or transfer credits. If you do well, you can apply for exchange study first, and then submit an application for further study, and the probability of success will be higher.
work
It is also a good choice to work in other countries, but it will generally be concentrated in ASEAN and other countries, because the economic exchanges with Malaysia will be closer, it will be more convenient for everyone to apply for a job, the recognition of academic qualifications will be higher, and the space for finding a job will be greater.
However, job evaluation still depends on everyone's ability to work. We must make comprehensive preparations to ensure that we can meet the entry standards and work in other countries. The challenge will be even greater, and there will certainly be more room for development.
