Companies conducting business overseas is a common phenomenon due to globalization. Employees are
assigned to work in different countries for certain periods of time. Some employees are successful but
others fail to meet expectations because of various factors. This study is an attempt at examining the
factors affecting Malaysian expatriates’ success on foreign assignments. The employment of expatriates
has become part and parcel of Multi-National Corporation (MNC) business organizations’ way to expand
their businesses internationally. Malaysian companies operating abroad normally employ Malaysians as
expatriates. A sample of nine respondents was selected based on their experience as expatriates; seven
males and two females. The study found that the primary factors influencing the success of Malaysian
expatriates include the selection of expatriates, emotional intelligence, preparation before their departure,
adjustment to the new place of work, support from the Headquarters, and compensation package
