Annotation

This article reviews retired Japanese Malaysian sojourners' overall choice of English for (in)formal interactions and underlying ethical considerations. The MM2H programme of the Malaysian government concentrates on economic partnership aspects and does not procure intercultural hazards or advantages that involve ethics and equity issues.
