Malaysia was the fifth most popular country for Chinese property buying inquiries in the world in the first half of 2019, according to Juwai.com, stated a report by New Straits Times (9 December 2019). Juwai.com, a Chinese international property portal, forecast there will be stronger interest from Chinese buyers next year with the lowering of the minimum price threshold for foreign buyers on high-rise property. "Malaysia is especially appealing to buyers motivated by lifestyle, retirement, or education. It has affordable standards of living, high quality of life, medical facilities, and accessible educational institutions. Malaysia consistently ranks among the best places to live," said Juwai IQI executive board member, Kashif Ansari
