Chapter 1: Overview of Malaysia

Figure 1: Geographical view of Malaysia[ CITATION Map20 \l 1033 ]

Malaysia is made up of two geographical regions which is divided by the South China
Sea. First one is the peninsular Malaysia/West Malaysia on the Malay Peninsula
bounded by Thailand on the north and Singapore in south. Similarly, the second one is
Malaysian Borneo/East Malaysia situated on the northern part of the island of Borneo in
the South China Sea at the edge of Indonesia surrounded by the Sultanate of Brunei.
Malaysia also has oceanic borders with the Philippines and Vietnam.

This country has total land area of 329,847 square kilometers, which is the 66 th largest
country in the world in terms of area. Mount Kinabalu with the height of 4,905 meter on
the island of Borneo is the highest peak of Malaysia. This Mount Kinabalu and Kinabalu
Park both are included in UNESCO World Heritage Site. Malaysia consists of population
of 32,191,104(in 2020). The largest and capital city both is Kuala Lumpur. Mostly

Background:
Throughout the 1970’s, 1980’s and 1990’s Malaysia drastically changed from being a
poor, agricultural country to a rich and industrial one by rising the standard of living of
Malaysian people. Today Malaysia is one of the prosperous and in the phase of being
developed country after the new development policy was introduced in 1991.
[ CITATION Tim191 \l 1033 ]

The multi-ethnic and multi-religious country in Southeast Asia (The Federation of

Malaya) became an independent country on 31 st August 1957. The federation was
expanded by the agreement of the states of Singapore, Sabah (which was previously
British North Borneo) and Sarawak on 16th September, 1963 and since that date the
name “Malaysia” was accepted. On August 9th, 1965 Singapore finally left the federation.
The border countries are Brunei, Indonesia, Singapore, Vietnam and Thailand. The
country’s political system is a legal monarchy based on the British Westminster
governmental system. Malaysia comprises of federation of 13 states and among those
nine Malay States are constitutionally headed by long-established ruler of royal
ancestry. Executive power is in the hands of prime minister (head of government) and
the representative head of state is the king who is elected every five years.[ CITATION

Some famous beautiful places of Malaysia:

Malaysia, a beautiful country where its huge

multicultural metropolitan capital(Kuala Lumpur) has
so much to do and look after, almost for everyone
who visits. The city expanses to the skyline with

mosques, temples, shopping malls and crowded markets with excess of attractions and
energy is so exciting.

A small city, Malacca, with many stunning sights and

attractive modern creations is located in southern
part of Peninsular Malaysia. This city is rich in
beautiful colonial architecture to discover, with
British, Dutch and Portuguese mixed designs

impact that used to exist.

Alor Setar, the capital of Kedah State also known as

‘the rice bowl of Malaysia’, consists of wonderful
curving hills and paddy fields. Malay culture is
prevailing in the city itself and is comprised of some
fascinating galleries as well as eye-catching
architecture on show. Pulau Langkawi, a tropical island
with relaxing beaches is also close by it where most Figure 4: Alor Setar[ CITATION Tou19 \l 1033 ]

(Oct to Feb) monsoons. The figure below shows the detailed annual average climate of
Malaysia:

Figure 5: Malaysia Annual Average Climate[ CITATION Tra20 \l 1033 ]

Electricity:

Malaysia has one of the lowest local electricity prices in the world. Malaysia’s low
domestic electricity price is most likely due to the government’s long term contract with
energy suppliers. The existing electricity tariff rate since 1st January 2018 is 38.53 Sen
per kilowatt jam (KWh) and this rate will persist through to 21 st December 2020. The
voltage used in Malaysia is 230/240 volts – 50 Hz.[ CITATION JES18 \l 1033 ]

Medical:

In case of hospital bills, it may differ among various institutions because every hospital
in Malaysia is known for particular proficiency and expertise. Medical bills are entirely
categorized by the level of treatment and choice of hospital’s management.

 International Human Resource Management

Nepal is 12.8% economical than Malaysia. So if Mr. Kant will migrate from Nepal to
Malaysia, he has to pay 37.7% less for local restaurant, 47.9% more for groceries, 3.0%
more for transportation, 2.2 times more for accommodation, 63.2% more for
entertainment and sports and 57.6% more for clothing.[ CITATION Myl19 \l 1033 ]

locality – RM2000
 Utilities expenses – RM400
 Groceries – RM300
 Food Costs – RM250 The

 Transportation – RM300 total

 Personal expenses – RM250

monthly expenditure in Malaysia might be somewhere between RM3000 and RM4000. [

Cultural Differences in Business between Nepal and Malaysia:

While travelling to the foreign country for business purpose, one must know about
business culture of that country to be prepared for obstacles and challenges which
might occur later on. Some of the cultural differences in business between Nepal and
Malaysia are listed below:

 Punctuality: While punctuality is not usually a high priority in Malaysia, it is still

expected in the business scenery. But in Nepal even the highest ranking people
are also not punctual.

 Language: Malay (Official) language is preferred but in business culture English

or other optional language would be used according to the easiness for both
parties. In Nepal, Nepali (Official) language is used and other optional languages
like Hindi, English, and Maithili according to the business parties are used.

 Greetings: All greetings in Malaysia begin with the word “selamat”  (sounds like
"suh-lah-mat"), which also means "safe." [ CITATION Tri19 \l 1033 ]While in
Nepal, people usually join hands and do “Namaste” for greeting people.

 Business Card: It is mandatory for Malay business professionals to exchange

business cards after the initial introductions and two hands or the right hand
should be used when handing over the business card. [ CITATION Sha14 \l 1033
]But in Nepal showing of business card is still not in use.

 Disturbance: Meeting schedules may be interrupted by the prayer sessions of

Muslims people. One should be patient and respectful if some or all Malaysians
leave for a moment to pray. They will return when they are done with it. But in
Nepal the interrupt occurs even any kind of small issues.

 Rejection: When one reject someone's idea of proposal in Malaysia, it can be

understood as rejecting only the person who made it. But in Nepal no such

A19 ADipBA04 A2 CW Report NP02 Group 7

 International Human Resource Management

culture is followed and the high rank person may directly reject his/her root
managers without considering their feelings.

 Decision Making: In Malaysia everybody knows what their job is, and they work
accordingly but in Nepal due to hierarchical issues the decision takes time to be
taken.

 Dress Code: In Nepal official dress are emphasized (Shirt, Pant, and Shoes at
least leather for men and sari/blouse, kurta suruwal or pant shirt is preferred for
women). While in Malaysia men generally choose smart formal clothes, with long
sleeve shirts and ties while women are seen with trousers, skirts working blouses
or dresses.

 Work Law: The laws of working culture in Malaysia seems relatively established
but in Nepal law have now been started to get implemented but is slow in
process.

Chapter 2: Proposed Relocation Details

A19 ADipBA04 A2 CW Report NP02 Group 7

 International Human Resource Management

Visa Arrangements:

Malaysia issues mainly three types of visa. They are:

 Single entry visa: Generally, this is issued to foreign residents who requires a
visa to enter Malaysia for a social visit. This single entry visa is valid for a period
of three months from the date of issue.
 Multiple entry visa: This is issued to foreign nationals who require a visa to
enter Malaysia primarily for business or government related issues. It is valid for
a period within three months to twelve months from the date of issue. The validity
of the Multiple Entry Visa is one year where each entry is for 30 days only and
the extension of stay is not permitted.
 Transit Visa: This is issued to foreign nationals who require a visa to enter
Malaysia on transit to other countries. Foreign nationals on transit without leaving
the airport area and who will continue their journey to the next destination with
the same flight would not need a transit visa. [CITATION imi20 \l 1033 ]

Mr. Kant must apply for multiple entry visa and some of the condition he must follow
are:

i- He must show proof of sufficient funds for staying in Malaysia.

ii- He must possess a valid and confirmed return ticket.

Relocation and Travel Arrangements:

Different airways travel from Nepal to Malaysia and back to Nepal like Thai lion Air,
Malindo Air, Indigo Airlines, Nepal Airlines, Malaysia Airlines, etc. While travelling from
Nepal to Malaysia (Direct) we would recommend Mr. Kant to travel through Nepal
Airlines from (Tribhuvan International Airport, Kathmandu) to (Kuala Lumpur
International Airport, Kuala Lumpur) which would cost him RM1150 to RM1350
[ CITATION Che20 \l 1033 ] depending upon months occupying 5(min)-6(max) hours

A19 ADipBA04 A2 CW Report NP02 Group 7

 International Human Resource Management

and while returning back to Nepal (Direct) from Malindo Airlines in a same price and
time.

Key personal documents required:

While travelling to foreign country one must have a proper structured document in order
for their own safety. So Mr. Kant while travelling to Malaysia, he should also carry the
following documents with him:

 Passport
 Return ticket
 Current Valid Visa
 Birth Certificate
 Citizenship Card
 Passport size photos
 Driving License

Key family arrangements required:

After being well settled in Malaysia if Mr. Kant wishes to bring his parents, wife and
children to Malaysia he must arrange and should require following documents:

 Passport, Valid visa, Citizenship card and return tickets for parents.
 Passport Valid visa, Citizenship card, return tickets and marriage certificate for
wife.
 Only birth certificate and return tickets for children as their children are below 18.

Housing Market Research and Recommendation:

As per the city the cost of housing may vary and the location of university is still in
controversy. The housing prices and overall prices will go on in an increasing order.
While in Malaysia the cost of 1-bedroom apartment in downtown area is RM 1,146.59,
1-bedroom apartment outside city center is RM 706.04. [ CITATION Myl20 \l 1033 ]The
negotiability would be staying in outside city center enjoying the peace nature rather
than suffocating in the heavy traffic and congested concrete building. So as per his
salary we would recommend Mr. Kant to stay in apartment outside city as the
transportation facilities in Malaysia is well developed and fast. As staying in foreign
country for the communication purpose he must have an internet access to
communicate with his family. So joining all the housing, utensils and internet prices as
per 2020 Mr. Kant might pay around RM1000.

Work Market Research:

The Malaysia Employment Act states work weeks as 48 hours, with a maximum of 8
working hours per day and 6 working days per week. So as per the Malaysian
Employment Act Mr. Kant should also adopt the same working hours schedule. Normal
Business hours in Malaysia are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday to Friday, with many
businesses and government agencies are also open until noon on Saturdays. Seniority
is one of the important factor in Malaysia, so Mr. Kant should always obey and respect
seniors along with respecting second person feelings.[ CITATION Jus20 \l 1033 ]

Driving license:

From 32 different country, citizens have a permission to convert their home country
driving license to Malaysian driving license with certain test and agreement with their

A19 ADipBA04 A2 CW Report NP02 Group 7

 International Human Resource Management

country embassy but among those 32 country Nepal do not include, so Mr. Kant should
go through the Malaysian procedure to issue a valid driving license. Obtaining a driving
license in Malaysia has following steps:

 Step 1: Register with a driving school.

 Step 2: Complete the theory/computer examination.
 Step 3: Get your Learner Driving License (LDL) from the driving school you have
register and complete a minimum of 16 hours of on-road lessons (practical).
 Step 4: Complete and pass the road test.
 Step 5: Drive on your Probationary license for 2 years.

Once Mr. Kant pass the practical exam, he can be on his way to a full-fledged driving
license. All he need to do is ensure that he do not have his license revoked by demerit
points for a total of 2 years. After the completion of 2 years of LDL, the LDL license is
upgraded to Probationary Driving license (PDL) and then to Competent Driving License
(CDL) if he satisfied all the terms and policies of Jabatan Pengangkutan Jalan or Road
Transport Department of Malaysia (JPJ) and do not get his license revoked by demerit
points.

Estimated cost of relocation:

The estimated cost of relocation of Mr. Kant in is listed below:

 Visa agreement: Single/Multiple entry RM20

 Driving license:
 Housing with utensils
and Internet:
 Food:
 Travelling Charge:
Around RM1000-Rm1500 and Rm30 yearly
RM1000 per month
RM600 per month
Rm94 (monthly public transit pass)

A19 ADipBA04 A2 CW Report NP02 Group 7

 International Human Resource Management

So the total monthly cost for Mr. Kant alone might be around RM3250(Jan 2020) and it
will increase with the number of an individual’s (parents, wife and children’s) if he
wishes to take his family to Malaysia for visit purpose or for the settlement.

Chapter 3: Proposed Compensation and Benefits

Compensation and its components:

In Malaysia, salary provided to an HR Director may vary from RM35382 (min) to

RM94979 (max and above) depending on an individual according to their working
experience, skills and talent. Mr. Kant while travelling to Malaysia he lies under mid-
career HR Director with 7 years of experience earn average total compensation of
RM79509 (payscale.com) (Including tips, bonuses and overtime pay). Some of the
compensation components are listed below:

 Bonus: In Malaysia an annual bonus as well as monthly bonus is provided to an

employee accordingly to their jobs. Average monthly bonus of Mr. Kant might be
around RM 9976 (payscale.com) and yearly bonus, averaging between one or
two months salary.

 Overtime Payment: In Malaysia there is a limit to overtime work. According to

the Employment (Limitation of Overtime Work) Regulations 1980 provides that
the limit of overtime work shall be a total of 104 hours in any 1 months . This
means an average of about 4 hours in 1 day. The pay for overtime work shall be
at a rate of not less than 1 and half time of the employee hourly rate of pay.

 Paid Vacation: In Malaysia, employees are paid for vacation on the basis of their
seniority and performance in the company. According to the Malaysian Labor
Law prescribes a minimum of 10 days of paid holidays in a year. So Mr. Kant
would also get the same paid vacation provided according to the law.

Home (Nepal) and Host (Malaysia) Country Taxation:

Figure: Cartoonlike Image of TAX

Source: From Google

The Income TAX slab is hit by each and every country for the betterment of whole
nation as well as for the citizens of their nation. Personal and Family Income Tax slab of
both the home and host country in 2020 is given below:

 Nepal: The tax rate for both individual and non-individual (couples/family)
according to their monthly income differ in Nepal. The direct tax for an individual
and non-individual is shown in table below:

For Individual and Couples

Income Slab Tax Rate

Up to NPR 400,000 1%

Next NPR 100,000 10%

Above NPR 200,000 20%

Beyond NPR 600,000 30%

Taxable Income > NPR 2,000,000 36% (20% additional tax on the
calculation made under 30% slab)

 Malaysia: The tax rate in Malaysia for an individual is shown in below table:

A19 ADipBA04 A2 CW Report NP02 Group 7

 International Human Resource Management

Income Slab Tax Rate

Up to MYR 5,000 0%

MYR 5,000 - 20,000 1%

MYR 20,001 - 35,000 5%

MYR 35,001 - 50,000 10%

MYR 50,001 - 70,000 16%

MYR 70,001 - 100,000 21%

MYR 100,001 - 250,00 24%

MYR 250,001 - 400,000 24.5%

Income Slab Tax Rate

MYR 400,001 - 600,000 25%

MYR 600,001 - 1,000,000 26%

Above 1,000,000 28%

So according to the comparison of Malaysia and Nepal taxation Mr. Kant has to pay
more tax in Malaysia than he was paying in Nepal.

Bank account and payment details:

Opening a bank account in Malaysia is a straightforward process. Bank accounts are

not only confined to Malaysian residents. Foreigners can freely set up bank accounts in
Malaysia if they fulfill certain requirements. In order to open a bank account in Malaysia,
without holding a residency permit, Mr. Kant need reference from a Malaysian contact
or his organization, this makes it easier. Mr. Kant need to bring his passport and also a

A19 ADipBA04 A2 CW Report NP02 Group 7

 International Human Resource Management

statement from his employer (if possible), which makes the work easier and faster.
Along with his Malaysian bank account he can also apply for a credit card which will be
billed in Malaysian Ringgit. To obtain a credit card, he will have to provide documents
like your passport and permanent work permit, his pay slips and returned income tax
payments.

Housing and Transportation Components:

In terms of housing and transportation in Malaysia we would recommend Mr. Kant to

contact a housing agent or the online sites (mylifeelsewere.com), for the reasonable
and easiness both in economic and time contest. It would be better for Mr. Kant to stay
in non-city area which would cost him around RM1000 along with internet bills, utensils
and groceries.

While living in a non-city area Mr. Kant must use transportation to travel from his
housing to the work area. For transportation purpose we would like to recommend Mr.
Kant to get the monthly public transit pass which would cost him around RM125 –
RM150. If Mr. Kant wishes to use traffic taxi it would cost him RM20 (8km/hrs.).

Health Care and Insurance:

Health care and Insurance is the major issues for an employee working abroad.
Treatment for foreigner in Malaysia costs more than what Malaysian pays. As in Nepal
private hospitals are costlier than that of government hospitals in Malaysia. To protect
employees who face risk of retrenchment, the Malaysian government launched an
employment insurance scheme from 27 October 2017. The insurance scheme, which

A19 ADipBA04 A2 CW Report NP02 Group 7

 International Human Resource Management

will be administered by the Social Security Organization (SOCSO), seeks to provide

temporary financial assistance for up to six months to workers, where employee has to
contribute 0.2% of their monthly salary. We would recommend Mr. Kant to follow up the
procedure and do this insurance. Some of the other insurance Mr. Kant must do for his
own and family benefits are as follows:

 Medical Insurance: This insurance can cover hospital visits, doctor visits,
surgeries, prescriptions and possibly vision and dental.
 Life Insurance: If the employee dies, this insurance will provide financial
payment to the employee’s named beneficiaries; these benefits can help that
person’s family.
 Disability Insurance: If the employee is injured or has a lengthy illness, this
insurance provides payment during the period employee cannot work.

Estimated Cost of Total Compensation and Benefits:

The estimated cost of total consumption and benefits is shown in table below:

Particular Benefits Cost (In RM)

Compensation 79509 (including tips,

bonus and overtime)
Bonus 9976

Housing Around 1000

Transportation Cost 125-150

Health Care and Insurance Around 500

A19 ADipBA04 A2 CW Report NP02 Group 7

 International Human Resource Management

Conclusion

As the cost of living in Malaysia is high than that of Nepal but the lifestyle and the future
settlement is far better than that of Nepal. From the research Mr. Kant might face some
problems in starting due to business culture difference but with time he can settle down
the things and obstacles.

Overviewing as a whole we would recommend Mr. Kant to accept the job and go to
Malaysia as it is a developed country which would provide him an opportunity to learn
and develop his skills and knowledge. Along with that the compensation cost is also
very high as in Nepal, he has gross drawing of NRP150,000 which would be
NRP2226252. With this the living life style of his parents and wife will be better along
with the bright future of their children’s.
