After moving into JB for a year plus now, when I hear "complaints" from ground up especially during general election or bi-election on how the govt not doing their job and they are suffering. I always wonder, do they not have a roof over their head as in having at least a HDB under their name...

How very true. This is why I do not take part in those argument on how one should avoid buying properties in Malaysia as it is a sinking ship etc. Should stay put in Singapore and divert fund into UK, Australia or wherever as those are the real property investment haven. I do know the risk...

That is exactly how the banker calculated my finance when I was planning some investment. According to her, I am a million networth individual, I can't help but laugh at that statement as quite fondly as how Bro Frodo put it, because I "buay sai" that's why moving in, not because I "eh sai"...

For those who bought their HDB more than 10 years ago are the blessed ones... not the recent purchasers, till now many of my peers are still shocked at how much my 5 room flat cost as their 4 rooms are easily near to twice the price. For what I know, many of these late purchasers are topping up...

I agreed bro xebay11. As a matter of fact, I suspect I am right in the same boat as bro Frodo, the fact we are getting the same residence in JB resounded that:) self proclaimed peasant is the self awareness of oneself. Bro Frodo might not be the true peasant as in the meaning of peasant...

That is provided the 2 machines at the customs actually work. Numerous times other JB dwellers like myself queue to only realise that after taking 1 min to verify our information, the system prompt us tht Information not found, please proceed to counter..... really face palm.

Just done mine at IRDA last Sunday. Apparently saw a few queuing before me yet are not aware of the new regulation. There are 3 schemes which you can apply MACS. 1. Property Owner (Required SPA (Original and Copy) 2. Spouse of Malaysian (Required at least 9 months VISA) 3. Company Sponsor...

Yup, definitely the impact of the plummeting oil price is sending ripples across globally now.

some of the more prominent development will not waive the state consent as well. I have viewed 2 over the long weekend as well.

Not only that, especially for foreigners like us. I reckon it will be good for us to start creating some credit profile with our adopting country in order to smoothen the loan process for other purpose like cars loan etc. I realised having a zero credit profile = risky business in the eyes of...

I also received flyers in my Bukit Indah house letterbox. Apparently we can park our malaysia plate car in the carpark with season parking at RM30 per month. I try to find information but still severely lacking. However this is Malaysia, information usually disseminate slowly. I can wait.

I think you are getting over worried. Not an issue as it is common, however I feel most of the time, we Singaporean are too pampered and lack of the adventurous touch to our personality. Just move and slowly explore lor. It is part of the fun and enjoyment of moving to a unfamiliar place. This...

LOL, no problem as well, can go on Sunday. Thanks for the information.

Heading to IRDA office this saturday to renew mine. timely information.

talk with my tiny weeny bit of living in jb experience. same things goes to my colleagues, clients, relatives and friends, when they knew that I have moved in JB, all are like are you crazy shit? It is so dangerous there, got car get stolen, get stabbed when withdrawing money from ATM, handbag...

I am optimistic based on the current outlook of the oil price which is highlighted by many just the tip of the ice berg. Currently Malaysia budget is plagued to crude oil price of $22-$40, as the market goes, they might have some spare cash left toward the end of the year.

Currently there are some fire fighting actions from the major oil production nations and in recent days oil price re bounced significantly with industry experts feeling more optimistically. That is why I am seeing a stronger ringgit performance by the end of this year. You are also right on the...

Hi streams, This is purely my personal view, does not apply to the general perspective of all. I kind of find in Malaysia there are 2 most dangerous places in term of robbery, snatch thief and etc. One is the busiest place (does not only imply with Singaporeans) and one is the quietest...

frankly speaking, that depends on which camp you are siding, the Malaysia is doomed because of 1MDB saga or the camp I am in - Ringgit is tied closely to crude price because it is the main export commodity in Malaysia. Currently Crude is recovering from 26 to 37 as of today with Saudi Arabia...

property got no worth it or not, only got can afford or not. haha
