Hi there… I’m from Malaysia too. Currently based in Klang…
This is a really great website, packed with wonderful information not found elsewhere..
Welcome to the club and ‘enjoy the ride’ =)

Kumon is quite popular in Malaysia too. They have quite a few centres here.

There's another one, it's called "Enopi" if I'm not mistaken. Quite well known here too...

Recently there is an article in our local newspaper on Heguru, who claims that they are the ‘Leader in Right Brain Method’.
They have just opened up a centre in KL, Malaysia and are offering trial classes for the moment.

Has anyone heard of Heguru before?

I don’t think it matters if my son is RH or LH… though I’m still not sure if he’s RH or LH.
He holds the pen using his RH but flips book using LH…hmmm…let’s just wait and see…

For Asian parents, you can try Asian Parenting Today (by Jennifer Hor, Ho Ai Ling & Jocelyn). Short description of the content:

Asian Parenting Today was born from numerous requests by parents with whom Jennifer, Ai Ling & Jocelyn have worked over the past decade to publish a book that specifically addresses the issues and concerns of Asian parents today.

Asian parents are often faced with the quandary of either subscribing to western practices or following traditional customs of their mothers and grandmothers before them. This book addresses many of the very common childcare issues that parents today face, with special emphasis on and respect to Asian cultural beliefs and practices.

More that just an indispensable parenting compendium for modern parents, Asian Parenting Today also provides real-life questions and practical, realistic solutions for new parents to help make their parenting experience an enjoyable, stress-free one.

I'm Chinese but Malaysia is multi-racial, so I also speaks Malay

In Malay,
Hi – Hai
Bye – Selamat Tinggal

In Mandarin,
Hi – Hi (also)
Bye – Zhai Jian

‘Selamat Pagi’ everyone! (this is how we greet Good Morning in Malaysia)

I’m so excited to be part of this community… I see lots of sharing and caring happening here which is definitely ‘handy’ for a newbie mom like me.

Cheers for now,
PG
