Maybe can charge them for services like accompanying them esp. for sinkie gals staying there to go shopping centres and makan? But no hanky panky business, ok? Ha ha!
Any potential clients out there?

Can read this articles to know what expenses can claim deduction, I roughly read wow so many expenses can claim for personal income tax in Msia...buy computer, pay broadband subscription, medical check up, pay parents medical expense, housing loan interest, even loan interest for buying shares also can claim deduction against dividend income...

My conclusion is if you are living in JB and work in SG, you can be considered tax resident for both countries and entitled to tiered income taxation, and tax reliefs. Win-win

We are Singaporean, living in JB and work in SG. We do not have any income from MY. So do we still have to file tax in MY?
Kindly advise, thanks.

No need to pay any tax in Malaysia if you do not have any income sourced within/from Malaysia. All RGPT is handled by your lawyer when selling properties so no need to declare them in your personal income tax either.

That type is me hahaha, can consider going into business here, legit types of course.

Thank you wuqi. Please take care.
 
Sorry let me clarify, if I own rental properties in Msia, live in one property in JB, work in SG and rent out my SG property, i enjoy being tax resident status in MY and SG. Tats what i meant.
 
Thanks, but doing business is not for me. Knowing my own character, sure have lots of bad debts (too soft hearted).

Understand, which was why even though folks invited me a few times to do biz, i seldom if ever go into any. Being too softhearted makes one naturally a bad businessman. Besides, i take friendship too seriously so worst outcome in a biz venture (for me) is not losing money but rather losing a friend.

Imagine when I sold my only house here in Sg recently, the buyer even thanked me for selling it at a very good price to him. Looks like the suggestion by Contra to take up calefare job at Pinewood Studio for retirement is very suitable for us both. Ha ha.

You should have leased it to him and keep a base in Singapore. Or just happy to leave everything behind?
