Frankly I don't know I should be happy or sad.

Have you reached your 80:20 ?

no!

Me too

On the one hand, every time I see RM drop to historical low, I am relief I made the decision to shift some liquid investment to overseas. On the other hand, I still have the major portion in Malaysia

A very mixed feeling

well, as long as u are "hedged" to an extent, it's alright.

if not, yr purchasing power gets eroded very quickly.
it sucks to see lifetime savings shrinking by the hour.
more so when u still have kids abroad to take care of.
and say bye-bye to visiting usa for the next decade!

Want to ask, compare from RHB OSK (malaysia) and iOCBC, which one is cheaper/better? I see from the website the OCBC got charge custodian fee per counter every month? I already have a bank account in singapore.

sgd/rm almost there...

2.9265/2.9105

first reit 1.33 ....

Can I know how you guys buy S-Reits in Malaysia?

yep, will buy if it gets to 130.

thru local broker such as ambank securities, malacca securities, kenanga maybank etc

Oh really? I never know that maybank can buy S-Reit. Thanks

can.

but kindly take note that it is rather expensive to buy S-reits using local brokerage.

preferable if you have a SG brokerage account.

Agree. I opened account with DBS in Singapore then transfer my SGD over. You can then transfer from DBS to Vickers or Phillip Securities.
