THE 50 BEST CITIES IN THE WORLD IN 2025, IS MALAYSIA INCLUDED?
Although many tourists praise Malaysia on social media, it doesn’t make us eligible to be included in the list of the world’s best cities this year.
As an annual event, the prominent website Time Out has released its list of the best cities in the world for 2025 based on a survey conducted.
The name Kuala Lumpur doesn’t appear at all, but our neighboring capital, Bangkok, Thailand, performed well by securing the 2nd spot in the list.
Other major Asian cities such as Singapore, Shanghai, Beijing, and Tokyo also made it into the prestigious list, further solidifying Asia’s position at the forefront of global city rankings.
For your information, it has become an annual tradition for Time Out to gather feedback from over 18,500 readers, who rate cities based on factors such as food, culture, nightlife, atmosphere, cost of living, and overall happiness.
The results of this year’s survey highlight various cities that continue to shape the global urban landscape.
