Its definitely going to be bad for a while. Raffles Marina should resume customs clearance ops in their facility in June so for those boaters among us, its another way to travel except i am not too sure of the marina in Puteri harbour, as in the port operations. Even hello kitty land is long...

Me neither, how many Singaporeans are interested to be working over there, somehow the attitude is that all of us are trying to make a fast buck there which isn't true. My single salary once paid for 17 pax salaries over there when things were bad and i have been a tax payer there for years...

This is for the West Malaysia, East Malaysia is much easier and 10 years. If i really have to take the West Malaysia route for MM2H with the current terms, i would rather head out to Thailand or Vietnam. I am lucky that i have pretty good neighbours in JB, we help take care of each other. During...

For Sarawak, its still 10 years. There are the requirements here: https://www.expatgo.com/my/2022/01/24/sarawak-beckons/ Batam is also a viable choice and can consider to stay near Batam Centre if you need or want to be near the ferry area. Also consider other areas as even Bintan is doable. I...

There is absolutely nothing to stop one from buying in both E/W Malaysia. The Sarawak route is somewhat easier although you still have to fly there to get started, it also has some privileges such as residing in W Malaysia, provided of course that you have 15 days minimum there every year. You...

Agree, they are more welcoming so always consider more places in your options. For those planning to rent, can consider Batam/Bintan as well, typically a few thousand (SGD) will last a year for a lease. Its a short ferry away and definitely no jam.

Terms i saw online: Following the review of the programme the government has announced the following changes to the requirements for the visa. : Monthly income required to qualify is increased from RM10,000 to RM40,000 a month (roughly US$9500 or £6800) You need to show liquid assets...

No need to sir, i know you likely mean well, just that investments long term especially on large scale should not be taken lightly, much less invited through an open forum. Normally i wouldn't get much involved but this was flagged out and hence my apologies for the deletion.

All are impacted including current holders.

Hi Rushifa, its 40k MYR as proof of monthly income on top of 1.5m fixed deposit and reduced to 5 years instead of 10. This applies to all including existing holders of MM2H. Agree it makes it very unpalatable, why have it at all with such terms when other countries are going the other way...

So far ok sir, planning to get MM2H, just for long term stay ok. Been sick for a long while, recovering better now but lost 24 kg, just gained back a few recently. Found that i cannot stay too long over there as will sleep a lot

From shared bad experiences with cars when servicing your car, please always check your car tyres, even by your regular mechanic. They under inflated my brand new tyres that i purchased and claimed the petrol station meter was wrong. Imagine front two tyres are 220 and the back tyres (the ones...

For those not keen on driving, can refer to the bus and taxis available here: https://www.gov.sg/article/reopening-of-land-borders-between-singapore-and-malaysia For those keen on driving into Malaysia, can apply for VEP here, so far we didn't get asked for this though although we kept a copy...

In a way, it is also to keep those who just want to pump petrol and go back straight. When we went in, they asked if we are day trippers as day trip visitors are not encouraged.

https://www.gov.sg/article/reopening-of-land-borders-between-singapore-and-malaysia Good reference for those keen. Bus and taxis are coming back on May 1st, 2022.

No longer applicable as i understand.

Thank you Sir, its really bad the past few years.

Dear all, We are all here to share but any commercial or business interests especially involving large investments, please refrain from posting here. There were some within the forum who shared their information for deals and did not have a happy outcome when they went in for business. (not...

They typically have at least 3 types of OS for their flight systems, if SOP was indeed followed by the pilots, it could be a hardware/maintenance related issue.
