the best i can think of is Suasana by UM land and directly opposite new shopping mall, Komtar, 2 mins walk and will eventually link by a overhead pedestrian bridge reason being Jalan wong Ah Fook would be a new river in time to come. Currently built at 5th level and probably complete in 2 years time at 35th level

Survey: Many want to retire outside S'pore
The New PaperSunday, Oct 19, 2014
Only 39 per cent of Singapore respondents who have lived and worked abroad for more than six months want to retire here.
The others cited better quality of life and lower cost of living as reasons for choosing to retire abroad. The proportion of Singapore respondents chasing a higher quality of life as a dominant factor behind the choice of location to retire is higher at 58 per cent compared to Hong Kong respondents (47 per cent).
Australia and Malaysia came out as popular locations to retire, according to the survey by Friends Provident International.
The report, released yesterday, said that out of the 1,006 people surveyed last month, 68 per cent of Hong Kong respondents and 35 per cent of Singapore respondents are living or have lived outside their home country for at least six months or more.
Of those surveyed in Singapore, 91 per cent were Singapore citizens while the rest were expatriates.

transfer x amount back.Will the depreciation of the RM catch up with the 4%-5% intrest from the bank?Tik better dont
pull all the eggs there.

They only insure up to 250k rm per person...but it is a local Sg bank so should be quite safe....yeah depreciation is a concern....if retired there in JB, do not think I would need to transfer big amts back but yeah it would mean putting eggs in 1 basket but can get enough to survive mthly and it is passive income so quite tempting...
i think one should be more concern with the just in case you uplorry unplanned or untimed, then how? if its unsafe when one is alive, difficulty tripled when you are not around even with legal papers for your beneficiaries. over here, difficulty is only in the waiting if not legalised. i was told to include my kids in the ownership for less complications. what do you guys think? any experience?
it is now above 1250rm psf
I'm getting 4.2% for 24-month FD. However, this bank doesn't have the RM250k guarantee by the government, so you'll have to decide for yourself. However, it has been around for 60 years already. As a token of appreciation, they'd even gave me their welcome gifts when I first placed my FDs with them and also food hampers during Chinese New Year.
Here. But I have to warn you again that this bank doesn't have the RM250k guarantee by the government.
any one staying at jb and commuting everyday to Singapore be able to answer me?

Thank you..
You can check out this thread. Seems that it should take at most 1 hour now to clear peak periods for cars.

nowadays hard to predict.those days you can tell when is peak when is not..
Would be better if sin and jb can provide a sheltered walkway from each ends.good for health and would definitely reduce traffic.
And those walking will never have get stuck in jams
for driving always be willing to throw in average 1 hour...to at least mitigate your frustration.if faster treat it as a bonus
it all depends ..
10am to 2pm..from sin quite ok
traffic from jb will be quite bad after 4pm
from singapore..view the causeway cam each time
its hard to predict unless those days where sat and sun surely super jam..now quite smooth.
thanks for that. just joined the grp..

Yesterday evening I drove family out of JB. At Woodlands customs the MY counter officer checked our passports and asked if we are living in JB. I said yes and he asked if we have a long stay permit. He said we are only having social stay. I basically just smiled and go. Anyone has this experience before? How to answer such questions?
