Malaysia has long been a popular choice for international students, thanks to its quality education, vibrant culture, and warm hospitality. And for one student from Japan, moving here didn’t just mean continuing his studies — it marked a turning point in his life.

In a video posted on TikTok by user @aottttttttyy.malaysia, the student reflects on his lifestyle back in Japan, which he describes as unhealthy and somewhat aimless. The footage shows glimpses of his past — partying and engaging in habits he no longer embraces.
But everything changed when he moved to Malaysia to further her education. Within just a month, he says his daily routine and outlook on life completely transformed.
Now, he wakes up early, exercises daily, and maintains a flexible work schedule. He credits his new environment for the shift, saying his lifestyle has taken a 360-degree turn for the better.
He also couldn’t help but praise Malaysian food, calling it incredibly delicious, “Really love to be here,” he wrote in his caption, capturing his appreciation for the positive changes he's experienced since making Malaysia his second home.
We're glad that foreign students and travellers find Malaysia a great place to visit, study, work, and even consider making it a home. We love sharing our culture and food, and we’re always eager to show our hospitality. Thank you for visiting Malaysia — we hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
