Thank you Walker, still very much in love with this land even though sometimes i do get some racist stuff here and there, i take it in my stride. I continue to hold lifts and doors open for people even when they just breeze by without even a nod or push out my trolley to fit theirs into the...

Thanks sgtsk. Indeed i have somewhat improved my skillsets.

Thank you, not much wisdom to share i am afraid, just experiences.

Dear all, for those who need to change their tyres soon, please be aware that it will be until November (for most shops) at least before new prices hits the tyre prices so it is a good time to change. I just got to know this from friends in the business.

To the SG property agents here: No one is trying to take your business away. You should be enjoying a roaring business and although there is a new government here now, properties will not become attractive suddenly, at least not for foreigners. I am still in the IT line and have stepped away...

Our SG passport expires every 5 years, if without MACS and someone goes in and out daily, the passport will not be usable within a year of daily travel (full) and needs to be replaced. As new passport have new numbers, it will be hard to keep track of specific individuals so years is not an...

Been here the last 10 years, maybe so far have been lucky, family have never encountered any issues at immigration. We never overstayed and made sure we go out every 2 weeks or so for errands, etc. Do remember U-turn at Causeway crossing is highly discouraged and one must report and fill out...

Best to call the bank directly and find out the person/officer in charge and have him or her follow up. You can also request a loan statement at the counter to find out your current amount of your loan so easier to speak to another bank about refinancing. Banking Enquiries Customer Care...

Hi kcwx35, you will need to negotiate with the bank and normally you can make an appointment to go and meet their loan officer. If you are far ahead enough in your loan, can also refinance with other banks. Once the lock in period is over, you can talk to them for better deals or earlier...

Dear all, just sharing a recent crime on Facebook, seems someone is faking to be a JPJ official and goes around cheating money on Facebook to renew driving license for people etc. Recently, the wife of my neighbour was cheated. Please beware. https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100020307963057

Absolutely, thanks for helping to clarify and clear doubts here. One can actually get MACS (normally after you get your MM2H) unless you already have alternate visas to stay on in Malaysia.

MAC can only be done at Danga Bay (IRDA office) now. The one in Orchard Parade Hotel (Singapore) has been suspended until further notice. MACS APPLICATION COUNTER Iskandar Regional Development Authority (IRDA) #G-01, Block 8 Danga Bay, Jalan Skudai 80200 Johor Bahru Johor, Malaysia Tel No...

This is impacting the one in SG only: http://www.thirdlink.com.sg/index.html Called up IRDA this afternoon and its still operational for the one in JB. MACS is not a VISA and not an entitlement, it is only used to speed up the entry and exit with the added benefit that you don't need to have...

Interesting. Luckily no moles like Infernal affairs.

Normally the old age homes will do this for them and arrange for immigration officers to come by for stamping. Have seen some already doing this. Can check this report on The Star to make your enquiries: https://www.thestar.com.my/news/nation/2015/03/15/singapore-jb-nursing-homes/

Yes for myself, mainly do border run but as i go in to SG quite often for work, i hardly go by more than a few days without going back in. For those who are above a certain age or in old age home, there are ways for the old age homes/immigration to help you with the passport stamp (legally)
