What are my chances of getting a job in Kuala Lumpur?

I recently arrived in KL from the UK with my partener as he has a job here. I have been finding it hard to find a suitable job as I don't have a degree, I do have a foundation degree which is in IT, Physics and Quantitative Methodods however my experience is in both working in a school with children aged 3-11 and in administration with the Inland Revenue in the UK. Most of the job posts I see require a degree however I am 33 now and have alot of work experience but this doesn't seem to count for much. Any help or advice in the right direction would be great. Thanks Louise

Have you considered teaching English in Kuala Lumpur? As you're already there, you can even go to drop off your CV in person, which is a huge advantage.
