Expat the unexpected


Expatriate. If you mentioned this word some 10 to 20 years ago, what would come to mind would be a 40- or 50-something foreigner working in a senior position for a multinational here in Malaysia. Most were married with kids.  

Nowadays one can see a wider range of expats: younger, likely to be single, and running their own businesses or working in all sorts of professions. How did they end up in Malaysia? S.S. YOGA speaks to four young expats for their stories.
