I think if the security of hospitals are good, medical professionals may choose to house equipment in less expensive real estate like Iskandar while continuing to operate and provide advice in Singapore. After all, their skills are portable!

You are absolutely spot-on! By purchasing power parity, MY is ahead. With SGD4,000 one would get MYR10,000. You can more than get-by in Boleh land.

Malaysian Ringgit is improving against SGD.

Is it good news or bad?

Must be 大件事. I was in after 11pm last night and road blocks were set up at Coastal Highway beside the Country Garden development site and outside Nusa Duta towards direction of Skudai. SG cars were waved past.
