The History and Background of Immigration Project in Malaysia

Malaysia's second home plan is a policy of the Malaysian government to attract foreign investment, promote tourism and develop the economy, aiming at encouraging foreigners to live in Malaysia for a long time. Since the implementation of Malaysia's second hometown plan, it has attracted a large number of foreigners to Malaysia for a long time with its lower threshold, simpler procedures and more preferential treatment, which has opened up a road for Malaysia to attract foreign investment and become a unique landscape of Malaysia's tourism industry. The following is a brief introduction of the history and background of the Malaysian Second Home Immigrant Project by www.contactmalaysia.com.cn/jihua Consulting Agency, hoping to provide more help.

Malaysia's Second Home Plan originated from the "Silver-haired Family Plan" implemented by Malaysia's Ministry of Tourism 1996, which encourages foreign retired people to travel and live in Malaysia for a long time with their pensions. Because of the outstanding effect of the project, the government decided in 2002 to officially rename the "Silver Hair Project" as the "Malaysia Second Home Project", and the target of the request was no longer limited to the retired elderly, but extended to foreigners over 2 1 year old. Once Malaysia's second home plan was implemented, it received enthusiastic response from the applicants. In 2003 alone, the number of requests reached the sum of 1996 ~ 2002. By the end of 2009, the Malaysian government had agreed to allow 32,063 eligible foreigners to settle in Malaysia. Among the major tourists of 10 in the Malaysian Second Home Project, China has always ranked first, with a total of 411. Applicants mainly come from coastal provinces and three northeastern provinces with relatively cold climate. Followed by Bangladesh, Britain, Japan, Singapore and other countries and regions. Except Britain, the former 10 are all Asian countries or regions.

Malaysia's immigration advantage

The favorable weather and environment is the primary reason for the success of Malaysia's second home plan. Malaysia has a stable political and economic environment, perfect infrastructure, convenient land, sea and air transportation, a warm and mild climate throughout the year, multi-ethnic, multi-civilized, multi-lingual, a combination of Chinese and Western lifestyles and a low level of consumption. The Malaysian Second Home project attracts China people most in the following four aspects:

(1) Malaysian cuisine

Since Zheng He's voyage to the West more than 600 years ago, China people have been thriving in Malaysia. At present, Chinese in Malaysia account for about 24% of its total population, and the proportion of Chinese in rich areas is higher. Although Malay is its national language, Chinese (commonly known as Putonghua in Malaysia) is also widely used. Besides common words, Cantonese, Fujian dialect, Chaozhou dialect, Hainan dialect and Hakka dialect are widely used in China and Malaysia, which has laid a language foundation for China people to live here for a long time. There are many Chinese restaurants in Malaysia, where you can not only taste the Malaysian-style Chinese food cooked by local China people, but also enjoy the authentic cooking by chef China.

Chinese food, Sichuan food, Hunan food, Cantonese food and other local cuisines can be seen everywhere, and even little sheep hot pot, soup steamed buns, craft Lamian Noodles, northeast chili pepper, barbecue mutton kebabs and other cuisines with local flavor in China are no worse than those in China.

(2) Education system

China people attach great importance to children's education. In recent years, it has become a trend to send their children overseas for western education. Malaysia, which has been under British colonial rule for a long time, follows the education system of Commonwealth countries, including national and private world campuses. Diplomas of any level are recognized by Europe, America and Australia, and the price of paste is moderate, only about a quarter of that of Britain. Students with college degree or above studying in Malaysia can choose 2+ 1, 1+2 (that is, Malaysia has two years, other countries 1 year or Malaysia 1 year, other countries have two years) and transfer to the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand to continue their studies. Diplomas will be issued by the graduation campus.

(3) Unique tourism resources

Malaysia has vast beaches, unique islands, pristine tropical jungles, precious animals and plants, various caves, ancient customs and unique tropical tourism resources, which are the primary factors for Malaysia to attract tourists from China for a long time. Malaysia is also the first choice for golf lovers. There are nearly 200 golf courses described by world famous people all over the country. You can swing freely in the city and on the beach. Badminton is the most popular ball game in Malaysia. Indoor badminton courts can be seen everywhere in both urban and rural areas. Long-term residents can enjoy the good times brought by high-quality sports at low prices.

Low house price

There are various types of houses at different levels in Malaysia, ranging from ordinary townhouses, apartments and detached high-rise buildings to high-grade houses built in coastal, woods, parks and other leisure addresses and in the middle of cities. House prices are relatively low and prices have risen sharply. Take Kuala Lumpur as an example, the price of high-rise apartments in prime locations is about RMB1.50,000-20,000 yuan/square meter. Such a house price is undoubtedly attractive to long-term residents from major cities in China.

Hope to adopt, thank you.
