No leh. The rm500 is the min deposit to open an account ? Shouldn't need so much admin fee for foreigners. At least not in my case for AmbAnk.

My interpretation is that $50 is the relief, so can buy up to $714 goods.

I thought rate is always better in Singapore if you're changing S$ to RM.

Singaporeans fake car theft in JB to claim insurance. http://www.thestar.my/news/story.asp?file=/2011/12/14/nation/10089219&sec=nation

Oh yes, the coastal highway from woodlands link to Nusajaya is also smooth and only 15km. My point is that the new tebrau area is as near to Singapore as the Nusajaya area...depending on whether you are coming in from tuas or woodlands. If you are tuas person, then Nusajaya is the only option...

No offense bro, I've seen many comments about people being ignorant about Nusajaya and have the impression that it should be same as the old JB. It's because they did not go down personally to see the place. Personally, I feel many Nusajaya buyers maybe ignorant about the New Tebrau area like...

I'm not qualified to comment much as I don't live there yet. So far, I use the NSHW and exit at the Adda Height exit to go to Cascadia. No traffic jam and about 10-15min from the exit. From cascadia, it is just beside Setia indah so about 3-5min drive I suppose. From cascadia to tebrau...

I was there too. Great cooling night and saw e moon eclipse too. With EDL, hopefully the traffic would be smoother into Singapore and perhaps cater to people working in north, north-east, changi business park area. I also think if MRT come true in 2018, then traffic jam is not really an...

About EDL Toll. They are forcing those who will not pay to use EDL to use it. So that tebrau will be relieved of traffic. If not, EDL will be underutilized while tebrau may still be jammed though improved a bit. So in a way, the building of EDL would benefit tebrau traffic so they make you...

Yes lah, it is not EDL toll fee but CIQ toll fee. They are smart also to prevent the EDL becoming white elephant. Since need to pay might as well use. I think toll fee would be increased to RM6.20 from rm2.90 now. A return trip would cost about s$6.50 inclusive sg toll. One month 20...

Based on the report today, you are bloody right.... http://motoring.asiaone.com/Motoring/News/Story/A1Story20111208-315095.html

In a way, it's good.....if the toll fee is not increased for those not using EDL. At least there's a choice for people to escape the jam at CIQ if they willing to pay. That's additional s$8 per day or s$160/mth which I think is worth it if there's no jam and makes it feasible for daily smooth...

IMHO, the big picture factors for property to rise in JB are - create jobs - improve connectivity within and to SG - reduce crime and the perception of high crime I believe the IM planning and story is aligned with above. Implementation and political risks are now the question mark.

Yes, traveling is a major hinderance especially for families with kids. Even if I am willing to wake up at 5am, the wife may not take it. Even if she can sacrifice, the kids will suffer with the daily travel and waste of time. It WILL affect their development and grades. If I am single, I...

Actually I'm also thinking of starting a business in JB. But I believe we need 2 Malaysian directors. True? Without MM2H, we also can start e company?

There are many pros and cons which has been mentioned before. I think main things are these.... - do you trust the developer or agent/seller more ? - availability of units
