I traveled to KL to have an honest chat about the reality of living in Singapore and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia as a Japanese with iChang.
Singapore and KL are both appealing to foreigners looking to migrate to Southeast Asia. But what's the reality like? Although "vs" is included in the title (sorry it's a YouTuber thing), I didn't really want to compare both countries and portray one country is 'better' than the other. I simply wanted to make a video where we share our love for both countries.
Big thanks to iChang & Jimmy! youtube.com/channel/UCtbpZEdyGM6xfOaX_rv-H_A
