For those staying in Johor Bahru it's really a no brainer doesn't take anything more than 1 hour to decide.

The decision didn’t come easy. Not just with a stroke of pen, No! It was after careful thought and consideration, weighing pros and cons, many sleepless nights thinking of reasons to justify our moves. In the process, we did give up a lot of things. And it doesn’t end there. Likewise the challenges. Dont be misled that is all bed of roses here.

It's not like you're stucked in a small island. It's not so far away even from Penang compared to folks working in USA/Europe/Australia.

For JB folks i can't imagine how they would even feel homesick.

Normally people decide to go to SG bring their girlfriend along to make x2.4

It's not an easy decision despite we earn 2.4 times more.

You need to give-up alot of things.

JB got nice Malay Food meh? Give recommendation pls...

You are one of those people who enjoy government subsidies while not contributing a single cent to the country! Worst than those legal indon workers who pay tax.

Some maybe broke-up with her gf bcos he leave for SG
No Gf in KL, so not a problem, trying to fish JB mm

Stay in JB, their Malay food is superb, even better than those in KL. but chinese food just slightly better than SG
Some maybe lost alot of friends and start all over again in SG
Basically all those can be compensated if u stay in JB and work in SG. just need to sacrifice on your travel time. smile.gif

Not to say helped inflation on JB food/housing pricing due to migrating to JB from other places. Let's not forget about the increased traffic jams.
