What to pack when moving to Malaysia

12 years ago
I sincerely apologise if this has been posted already, if this is the case so me a favour and repost a link :)
There were loads of "Moving to Malaysia" topics that were more focused about how to get a job/permission to move. Since I already have that arranged it wasn't super helpful.

I am a 27 year old Canadian girl- what should I pack? I am planning to live in Malaysia for at least two years.

Things that come to mind after living in Korea for a year:
- What snacks will I miss?
- Are bras/swimsuits difficult to buy? (I am a D-34)
- Any clothing items difficult to find?
- Are drugs (as in legal ones) easily accessed?
- Are there any hygiene products that cannot be found in Malaysia?
- Any foreign "things" that make good gifts?

Thanks for the advice!
