What should I pack when moving to Ampang?

Answer this Question

We asked people living in Ampang to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...

"When moving to Ampang, you should pack lightweight and breathable clothing, as the climate is hot and humid. Include a mix of short-sleeve shirts, long-sleeve shirts, shorts, and long pants. Bring a light rain jacket or umbrella, as there can be frequent rain showers. Pack comfortable walking shoes and sandals, as well as a hat and sunglasses for sun protection. Don't forget to bring any necessary prescription medications, along with a basic first aid kit and over-the-counter medicines for common ailments like headaches and stomach issues. Pack your toiletries, including travel-sized shampoo, conditioner, body wash, toothpaste, and a toothbrush. It's also a good idea to bring insect repellent and sunscreen. Make sure to pack your important documents, such as your passport, visa, driver's license, and any other identification you may need. Bring copies of these documents as well, in case of loss or theft. If you're planning to work or study in Ampang, pack any necessary paperwork related to your job or school. Pack your electronics, including your phone, laptop, and chargers. Don't forget to bring a power adapter, as Malaysia uses a different type of plug than many other countries. You may also want to bring a portable power bank for charging your devices on the go. Bring some entertainment for your downtime, such as books, a journal, or a deck of cards. If you have any hobbies that you'd like to continue in Ampang, pack the necessary supplies for those as well. Lastly, pack a few personal items that remind you of home, such as photos or small mementos. These can help make your new living space in Ampang feel more comfortable and familiar," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Ampang, Malaysia.
