I live in Malaysia. A lot of these places have become co-working spaces - loud, crowded, located right in the middle of a traffic jam area. Many are not free from distraction either. A lot of people in these places are paying to network, so you get accosted by networking types while running a train of thought.

Something like a university library would probably be ideal. Environment is just nice for focusing, no harrasment, good coffee, and walking/public transportation access.

That's my plan. Anything I should know before making a move?
