Any attempts at naval blockades will results in active sonar deployments, unrestricted warfare and paralysis of all maritime trade along the long coastlines. Submarines can show up in many areas especially those countries that don't have good ASW assets. All naval trade will be blocked...

Thank you sir. Made some edits to explain things and to delete some, just my 2 cents from being a military buff years back. Most of the C-RAM we have will make very short work of their battery assets, so much so that even the SP ones will only have an exceedingly short life. Likely their MLRS...

My 2 cents worth, maybe 1 cent, from my limited knowledge. I don't think the 2 countries will ever go to war so its a moot point to even consider that. For the sake of sharing through, from what i could remember. Mainly sharing the forces that are known. Those in the know will know whether what...

Agree, it will not recover for a while, anyway i am in for the long haul. Luckily most of my units are still rented out. Just have a remaining unit in Laguna i am pondering to sell or to rent out.

Hi nyxnhh, 1. From HH to Tuas Road (reach by 8:30am) what time must i start my cross border journey? You can go to facebook to search for one of the carpools there, they typically start picking up people at designated points by 5am. In emergency or when you don't want to drive and just get...

Hi Elfhunter, never so far. Been 10 years. Maybe i was lucky? My wife and kids too. Only time is when the MACS expires halfway when we are in JB. Then they will ask which day we enter etc. When one time they asked about my son's passport, i informed them that he takes school bus thats why our...

That is actually Danga city mall or what was left of it. The EXPO beside it is still working so it is not abandoned (for now) For IT stuff, now just head on to Pelangi Plaza which has been renovated and doubling as the main IT source.

Hi Grago, you are absolutely right. There were alot of confusion but after checking with my lawyer friends, it turns out that it is still RM 1 million. Except for certain new launches, else it is still 1 million. I stand corrected and gladly so.

Just sharing and i hope this is useful, if not to anyone, as a reminder to self, words written after an interesting conversation where someone i looked upon (still do) as a mentor years ago hurled extreme words at me for no apparent reason when i went to him for help. Reminder to read this...

Just to update as well, there are 2 duty free zones in JB. One is the old The Zon, now Berjaya Waterfront and the other is Forest City. Both have hotels and accommodation within these 2 zones and of course not just limited to alcohol/cigarettes (i don't do both) but...

Hi Miss Piggy, As well, the 2m refers to certain areas, take for example the whole of Nusajaya (Now Iskandar Putri) is international zone which means subject to 2m. Other areas within Johor and outskirts are still 1m. Most are still unaware of the 2m. To this date, i still have people who thinks...

That is because Sunway in Iskandar is based in Medini where it is a LEASEHOLD title for 129 years. Hence no limit but of course, it is leasehold on actual freehold land. Sorry but no go for me. Hope the information below helps clear things up...

Hi all, i called up IRDA, the MACS is still suspended at this time (they are waiting for instructions). Meanwhile, the officer informed me that even Long Term Social Visit Pass holders also need to stamp their passport at this time. Actually come to think of it, not just myself but a few others...

You can look at this one as well. Its definitely only 2m at this point. http://www.pwta.com.my/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/Guide-to-Acquisition-of-Real-Estate-In-Malaysia-by-Foreigners-Updated-as-of-2-August-2017.pdf

Yes Nusajaya/Iskand Putri is in the 2m zone so it is effectively 2m for most of the neighbourhood.

Agreed, to each his own. Everyone has a different view and well entitled to follow their hearts.

Many thanks Elfie for your kind words. I try to help where i can, my own efforts are limited though. I am lucky to have good neighbours though. Recently a good neighbour actually sent me as i was walking home from a car pool. My wife was already enroute to pick me up but as its been a long time...

Are you referring to Penang or parts of Selangor (KL) where it is already 2million (landed)? You can still get landed property for 1m in Johor, its going to be harder for foreigners to be able to buy landed property in Malaysia thats for sure...

Experience to share, if suddenly your ground floor unit has a ceiling leak, do not just assume that its because of the ground floor ceiling pipe. Just had a severe leaking issue (was made worse by the repair uncle unfortunately) where it was actually the pump pipe connecting to the 2nd floor...
