"Expats in Malacca often find the language barrier to be one of the most challenging aspects of the local culture. Malacca is a multi-cultural city, and many of the locals speak a variety of languages, including Malay, Chinese, and Tamil. Additionally, the local customs and traditions can be difficult to understand for those who are not familiar with them. Expats may also find it difficult to adjust to the slower pace of life in Malacca, as well as the hot and humid climate," remarked another expat who made the move to Malacca, Malaysia.
