When we asked people living in Malaysia about club and activities where newcomers can meet others, they responded...

"Expats living in Malaysia often join local clubs and activities such as expat Meetups, sports teams, and language classes. Expats can also meet people through local venues such as pubs, cafes, co-working spaces, or religious organizations. Additionally, they may find other expats or locals interested in similar activities by attending community events, joining online forums, or joining local social networks," explained one expat living in Malaysia.
