Johor Baru – More Koreans are now living in Malaysia as the country has been found to be suitable for setting up a business and to bring up children. Moreover, it also has overall good and simple standards of living.

Should it be “for bringing up children” instead?

Thanks!

In my book it’s perfectly fine to list a gerund followed by an infinitive so you can keep the sentence as is.

(In my view, it depends on how you conceive of the syntax. Generally, what you say should be better if you wish to maintain consistency!)
