Malaysia: moving to petaling jaya:

Hi, I will be moving to petaling jaya in less than 3 weeks. I am soooo scared! I met my husband in college and we quickly got married here in the us. He is malaysian- chinese. We haven't done as well financially as I had hoped- I stay at home with our 1 year old, I have a 7 year old boy also. I found out last year that his family owns a large business in KL. His father thought it would be best for us to move to KL. I dont want to see my husband continue to work so hard here with little chance for moving up in the company he works for. So I agreed to move to petaling jaya. I am a free lance designer...I dont make much money. We have a condo that is paid for...new...3 bedroom 2 baths but small. My husband will only be paid 1500RM a month to begin with...half of that will go to my son's tuition fees for school. can someone give me an honest opinion on what to expect. Am I making a mistake? we make about 3,000 per month here, but the economy is bad..I cant find a job and he cant move up. over there he will be working at a place where he has a great future. but I worry about my son. he will have to learn malay, and get used to a new place. I will take him away from his grandmother and his cousins. I feel extremely guilty. and I worry about our quality of life on a 1500RM salary.
