Are there anybody that is not studying/working in Singapork but purposely crossed the causeway carrying a bunch of Singapore Dollars in cash just to open a bank account there? (thinking of doing this)

What is the purpose of doing it? Is it a means to safe guard your money?

Can anybody share their experience to me. PM etc.

I am a Malaysian and soon working in Singapore. Now think where should I open a bank account.

I have though of Maybank cause I have some commitment here that I need to settle every month, and give my mom pocket money too biggrin.gif Does anybody know by chance if we could transfer money from mbb SG to mbb MY with no charge?

Bro, some employer might give you referral letter for you to open account with specific bank.
Maybank SG and MY are different entity bro. Whatever transfer also have charge. Withdrawal from ATM in Ringgit after crossing into Johore will also be charged.
