What are the most rewarding aspects of retiring in Penang?

Answer this Question

We asked retirees what they find the most rewarding about retiring in Penang. They wrote...

"Retiring in Penang offers a variety of rewarding experiences. The city is known for its vibrant culture, stunning beaches, and delicious cuisine. The cost of living is relatively low, making it an attractive option for retirees. The city is also home to a diverse range of attractions, from historical sites to modern shopping malls. The warm climate and friendly locals make it a great place to relax and enjoy life. Additionally, Penang is well-connected to the rest of the world, making it easy to stay in touch with family and friends," said another expat in Penang, Malaysia.

"When we stay in a place for some time, we build friendships. We are recognised in shops and markets. It's wonderful to be accepted as a "local" even though we are still foreigners. When you can move about with confidence and ease in a foreign country you see more than just a traveler," wrote a member who made the move to Penang, Malaysia.
