To those with MACS,

Am I correct to say that I can now apply for MACS online at http://macs.imi.gov.my/NewApplication.do?hdAction=getScreen ?

Also, at the following page: http://www.imi.gov.my/index.php/en/pass/377-malaysia-automated-clearence-system-macs, it was mentioned that:
MACS holders will also be excluded from the requirement of completing the immigration arrival card (IMM.26). Consequently, entry and exit to/from Malaysia records shall be made online and the usage of passport pages for stamping will be minimized.

Does that mean that everytime I enter/exit Malaysia, I still have to fill up the "white card" online, although I do not have to do so physically?

Please advise.

School results my 2c. Again fully dependent on how the parents raise their child. Seriously. Apart from the occassional cleaner/bus driver/ taxi drivers son who gets scholarship/strikes it big in government/private service...generally its hard to see kids doing well without parental involvement.

<<No offence to any one in these occupations but thats the term the newspapers use for reporting as well>>

Parents have to sit down, find the time and teach their kids. Should never rely on tuition. It never works. And even if you have tuition you should have a hawks eye on the tutor and your kids and be prepared to sack the tutor if he/she is irresponsible.

My neighbour has a tutor for Eng/Math/Chi 3x a week. The tutor hardly makes it once a week. Its not possible for a child to progress without systematic tutoring from the parents/tutors.

There are some parents who wish this away by saying
1) "Hi ya my son only can do so much. So i cant pressurise him leh" Surely such case end up in Poly/ITE
2) Others who say "Let my child enjoy their childhood. I have the money. When the time comes if cannot go JC/U in spore, il send them to JC/U in USA/Oz land" This is ok since the parent has the money and ofcourse the child gets to go JC and later Uni. Possibly not a good upbringing as the parent is not present to back the child up at every situation in later life.

Im not suggesting to be a Tiger mum but yes you have to sit down with them daily. Im tired too. But i sit down with them daily and go through their work.

Its painful to see them work so hard.


Then how about school results? :(

No bro.... No need to fill anything.

And ofcourse they do not scan your passports either.

4) Address in Malaysia ( i mean your home address)

Thats all sia.

Thanks bro.

So is it true that I can now apply for MACS online, instead of going to Danga Bay with my S&P and all?

Ok, here goes again.

Actually there are 2 ways to apply for MACS, one is for frequent visitors, you can go straight to CIQ with colour passport sized photos and get it there. The other one, for landed, investors, you can go to Danga bay that side to do, that one you need to bring along your S&P.

I noticed that they started the thumbprint thingy already and many people had to get out of their vehicles to scan their digits, it doesn't apply to MACS holders though.

No they never asked me for S&P etc...

Not even my utility bills.

Oh yea the month you plan to apply for MACS the previous month must have minimum FOUR chops on your passport.

Thats what they told me

The invisible grille is a good thing, looks neat and helps to preserve the view etc. It isn't that strong through as we wanted to do this for one of our units but our contractor said not to as its easier to gain access through these grilles than the normal ones. Having a good cctv system will help together with wrought iron or stainless steel grilles.

Wah lucky they never force MACS people to do the thumb print thingy. Else defeats the purpose of MACS. So now more time needed at entry point to malaysia.

Just when its getting better it gets worse...

Wrought iron or stainless steel definitely good.

Both adult working for 5 years and frugal in their expenses, plus their bonus and interest on those bonus. Off course you don't expect their salaries to remain stagnant. If yes then its their own fault. And some wise profits from investments. You go and do the calculations. If worse come to worse, don't buy such a big house lor.

Oh yeah. Now in the morning I will point to those on motors and those walking to Singapore to work. And tell them its their fault if they end up like that. No offense but its an eye opener for them.
