“For some Singaporeans, growing old means living across the Causeway – in a nursing home in Johor Baru. Home operators there say about 10 percent of their clients are now Singaporeans and they are getting more enquiries from Singapore families.Many moved their seniors or disabled relatives up north, citing more affordable care” – TNP, 11 Jul 2012

Obedient Sinkees even volunteering to move to a land "notorious for shootings, muggings and carjackings."
I did not say that, Lee Con Yew say one. I love Malaysia. I think Singaporeans moving to Mudland are slapping themselves after calling their Johor neighbours with derogatory terms.

There is even a segment here on A Singaporean's guide to Living In JB
Sick of living in pigeon hole and having to fight for space like a caged rat? Tired of living under the tyranny of a "benign" Dictatorship? Well you don't have to put up with it any longer.

If Malaysia is Mudland, Singaporeans moving to Johore are m&d-suckers, according to a Johorian.

Malaysian hero who loves Singapore old folks.
"They should be grateful to me."

Singapore was fine when it has a lesser population. Things are still expensive compared to JB, but at least they are affordable. What I don't understand is why they would want to move up north when there are obviously better choices elsewhere.

Has it ever occurred to you that those moving up north are actually ex-chew hoo kias? What do you think?

Possibly. Any stats to prove?

Elsewhere? Tell me which stupid country behaved like Singapore where any tom, dick and harry can just walked into our land and start "killing" our own people under PAP's blesings. Which country on this planet allows that to happen to their own people other than PAP?

I think it would take 100 man years to gather the stats. What do you think?

Possibly. Any stats to prove?
