remeber sarawak one thereis only bank deposit and nothing else? Is that for senior citizen? You also mentioned batam. I am frankly sick of johor stupid custom treating us like criminals. What areas have you stayed in batam?There is absolutely nothing to stop one from buying in both E/W Malaysia.
The Sarawak route is somewhat easier although you still have to fly there to get started, it also has some privileges such as residing in W Malaysia, provided of course that you have 15 days minimum there every year. You have kids schooling there or have at least a 600k property, 10k monthly income for couple or have 300k FD (couple). I would recommend to get the MM2H first and then you are not restricted to 600k property over in Sarawak as you can get something that is 300k.
The route seems more reasonable but again this is subject to change if the government just decides to change things or make it harder although they tend to give more leeway for things done over in E Malaysia. As it is, people over in Malaysia are no longer as welcoming to us as in the past, they seemed to think all the troubles they are facing in the past 2 plus years are all due to Singaporeans.
Like blaming Singapore registered vehicles for pumping ron 95 petrol etc but then forgetting drivers of Singapore vehicles may not all be Singaporeans. There are even people from other countries, etc who rented Singapore vehicles and went into JB for day trips.
