Hi camalamaniyer,

You might find it hard to live on USD 2500, which equates to about RM 8,000. A one bed place outside Kuala Lumpur will cost you around RM 4000. If you want to live in the CBD it will cost you more. You will also need to budget around 500 for utilities. Luckily food is not to expensive, especially if you choose to eat local produce.

Read the Cost of Living in Malaysia page for more information. 

Good luck
