I have an opportunity to do an international rotation during my summer internship for 4 weeks. It's for a big4 TS. My choices are Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and Wellington, New Zealand.
Any advice on which would be more beneficial for my future career? Thanks for the help!

You really want to fly to Malaysia........
despite the whole missing airplane thing, I highly suggest you do KL, Malaysia. It's a booming town with a lot of growth. I feel the experience will be invaluable, south east Asia is the place to be right now. I would do KL 10/10 times if I had the chance. It's fun, good party place, nice ppl, diverse, and booming business environment.
I'd work in SE Asia just because that's where the growth is. Make a pit stop in NZ on the way though, awesome sights there.
Singapore is bigger than anything in Oceania. Malaysia might help you there. There's nothing really big in New Zealand although I'd much rather live there than Malaysia. Doing an opportunity in New Zealand might help for getting a gig in Australia.
I've heard an overwhelming amount of support for KL from you all and oustide, so that will be my first choice. Definitely want to visit Singapore while I'm there. Thanks for the help!
Hey KL is a pretty good choice and u have fellow WSO members like me returning home this summer... are they providing you with accommodation?
come to KL, I'll buy you a drink
