In this episode, Kelly visits The Waterfront at Desa ParkCity, Kuala Lumpur, to enjoy some Hong Kong-style cuisine and chat with Jenny, a Taiwanese mom who moved to Malaysia with her family just six weeks ago. Originally, Jenny planned to wait until her eldest son graduated from primary school before relocating. So what made her family decide to move earlier than planned?

Jenny shares what inspired her family's move, the pressure of the CAT4 entrance assessment for international schools, why they chose their neighborhood before selecting a school, and how her children are actually adjusting to international school life.

She also reveals the approximate annual tuition fees for her two children, why her family ultimately chose Malaysia over Singapore, and what she looked for when choosing an agency for the Malaysia My Second Home (MM2H) visa program!
