Five reasons Malaysia is a top talent destination - Business News | The Star Online

Number 5: Liveability

Kuala Lumpur was voted among the top 100 most liveable cities in the world in the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU)'s 2014 Global Liveability Ranking, based on five categories: stability; healthcare; culture and environment; education; and infrastructure.

HSBC's 2015 "Expat Explorer: Balancing Life Abroad" report, meanwhile, ranked Malaysia the 20th best country overall to live in as an expatriate based on factors including benefits offered by employers, the ease of making friends and the opportunities to lead an active social life. The report's survey respondents, comprising 21,950 expatriates globally, also rated Malaysia one of the top five destinations overall for career satisfaction (iv).

For Professor John Chan, a consultant cardiothoracic surgeon at Sarawak General Hospital Heart Centre who was based in the UK for more than two decades, Malaysia's healthcare industry offers plenty of rewarding career opportunities, especially with key healthcare projects announced under the ETP set to create an estimated 26,966 jobs by 2020 (v).

"In terms of equipment and infrastructure, Malaysia has got world-class hospitals in both the public and private sectors," he says. "Now we are looking at sourcing more specialists, the human resource, the consultants and the surgeons to address the clear need for these services in Malaysia."

The Global Malaysians job portal makes it much easier for global talents to seek career opportunities back home. There's no better time to come back and be part of Malaysia's economic transformation. Visit rep.talentcorp.com.my for more."
