Introducing Malaysia Scout: A New Platform for Job Seekers in Malaysia

Malaysia Scout Launch Announcement

A new opportunity has arrived for job seekers and companies in Malaysia! The leading recruitment firm, Thank Asia Corp., has officially announced the launch date of its unique platform, Malaysia Scout, set for December 26, 2025. Following its successful ventures in Vietnam and Thailand with Viet Scout and Thai Scout respectively, this new initiative aims to facilitate efficient job placement between Japan and Malaysia, establishing a robust cross-border recruiting network across three key ASEAN nations.

Building on Proven Success

Malaysia Scout isn’t starting from scratch. It benefits from the significant achievements of its predecessor platforms. Viet Scout, which launched in February 2024, rapidly became the go-to resource for Japanese individuals seeking work in Vietnam. With over 100,000 monthly page views and a high response rate of 25.1% from employers, Viet Scout has earned the trust of various organizations in the Japanese recruiting market.

In Thailand, Thai Scout experienced a meteoric rise since its launch in May 2025, accumulating 800 dedicated members in just seven months, alongside a response rate of 26.1%. These figures highlight the increasing demand for these platforms within the ASEAN job market, raising expectations for the upcoming Malaysia Scout.

What is Malaysia Scout?

Malaysia Scout serves as an innovative recruitment platform connecting Japanese job seekers in Malaysia with local Malaysian companies actively seeking talent. It focuses on two main groups:

- Job Seekers: Primarily Japanese individuals aspiring to work in major Malaysian cities like Kuala Lumpur or experienced Malaysian professionals proficient in Japanese looking for new opportunities.
- Hiring Companies: Businesses aiming for growth in the Malaysian market, alongside reputable local recruitment firms and headhunters that seek out top talent.

Key Features of Malaysia Scout

1. High-Precision Matching: The platform is meticulously designed to align the skills and aspirations of job seekers with the specific needs of companies, providing a level of matching accuracy unattainable by general recruitment services.

2. Vast Job Opportunities: By collaborating with numerous leading headhunters and recruitment agencies in Malaysia, the platform offers an extensive range of job listings for Japanese candidates, allowing them to compare options comprehensively.

3. Proactive Scout Function: Rather than waiting for opportunities, the platform empowers job seekers with a scout function to receive tailored recruitment offers, enhancing their career management proactively.

4. Accessible Pricing Model: Companies interested in utilizing the platform encounter an easy entry with zero initial costs and a results-based fee structure, which is considerably lower than industry standards (10%-13% of expected annual salary). Job listings and scout function usage are free, and confidential job vacancies can be managed discreetly.
