Trying to find out too . Have check with a driving center at Bukit Indah , the guy give me a puzzling explaination , given up liao . He say must 1st obtain a letter from LTA to certified that you do not own a Singapore driving license , then can apply for High Way Code test ... follow by pratical test . Whole package is about RM 1,800 /= supper cheap compare to blood sucking SG system .

Thats becos Malaysia recognise Sg driving licence which can be used in Malaysia as long as its valid. If you dont hv a sg liccense and you wan to drive in MY then its alright for you to take up a MY driving license.what the driving center told u is correct.
OK, so first step is to get LTA certification that you do not have a Singapore driving license?
i wouldnt know becos I am not in your situation. Based on what i said earlier abt sg license can be used in Malaysia. It makes sense for the driving center to ask u for proof before they allow you to enrol right?
Er , if I have a SG license , why would I want to get another MY license ?
I guess retired Singaporean anties and uncle would like to have a cheaper MY license to move around JB as public transport is non existence.

PASIR GUDANG: The state government will unveil a new policy on foreign buyers of commercial and residential properties here in a bid to control property prices and foreign ownership by the end of the year or early next year.
State Housing and Local Government Committee chairman Datuk Abdul Latiff Bandi told reporters here after launching the two-day Green Industrial 2013 seminar at Amansari Residence Resort here today that foreigners will be imposed a four to five per cent tax based on the value of the property.
"Currently foreign owners have to pay a one-off RM10,000 levy regardless of the price of the property," Abdul Latiff said.

My just in case someone with suspended license in Singapore wants to get a mY license?
Restoran Aik Sen is it? It's my friends family shop. They have been doing this business for god knows how long.
Will this lead to price drop of existing developments ? Any expert here care to advice. I am thinking into buying into Malaysia property as well.
It will be removed if the price drops, because it will result in lower demand and taxes for the government. Eastern Dispersal Link, Coastal Highway, Pasir Gudang Highway upgrade, additional security forces etc are all sunken costs to the tune of billions of tax payers money. The Johor government is actually held in ransom by investors.
No Hua Mui. Looks like I must try Aik Sen too then!
The new policy will be as follow :
Foreigners owning property can only sell to foreigners.
Malaysian can only sell to local Malaysian.
If this is the new policy, Malaysian who has bought into the small condo type will be screwed. Is there any tax or levy if i sell my property after maybe less then 2 yrs ?

...may not necessarily have much impact as a large percentage of "foreign buyers " are actually SPRs...
Oh Hua Mui, that's probably JB's most famous & oldest coffee shop. Go the the 2nd floor and it feels as if you time traveled back to the past.
no la, foreigners can sell to both locals and foreigners...
Any predictions on whether market is going to sink if all this comes into effect? Will there be an exodus to buy or sell before year's end? The new article in Straits Times yesterday predicted more will buy before Jan to esccape the additional 5% tax. but I am wondering if investors will want to exit the market before this kicks in.Hard to say as the ABSD hasnt dampened the market in SG.
